It's no secret that Hyundai's design concept has always been about creating similar cars to their Japanese counterparts. They were using the G37/350z/370z as their benchmark when developing the Genesis Coupe. It's something all companies do. The original design is unmistakeably inpired by the G37, which in my opinion is not a bad thing. Call it what you want, Hyundai wanted to create something similar to Nissan...again, not a bad thing. If they merely wanted a two door, they would have stayed with the Tiburon. Hyundai's lineup use to be a bunch of lame imitation until recently. Japanese companies were the same at their beginnings...taking cues from European cars. The original Z was inspired by the likes of Jaguar, Porsche and Ferrari...don't take it personally, lol.
