Also look to them to change this car significantly in future which will further tank resale. Hyundai still isn't a mature company in the way they develop and market cars for enthusiast markets. They are still banking on selling decent cars for cheap. You will know Hyundai has arrived when they can sell a car that is better built, has better performance and equal price to the 370z. I don't see that happening anytime soon.
Hyundai made fatal mistake of offering the Genesis in 4 cylinder turbo. Those cheap versions of the cars are going to drag the 6 cylinder car down in the long term.
Nissan is much smarter in leaving same V6 power plant in all 370 models and not putting cheap 4 cylinder option in the Z. But then Nissan has a sports car heritage to uphold while Hyundai just wants to sell you a cheap sporty car.
Just put yourself in shoes of a buyer of a used sports car in 5 years. You really going to desire a used hyundai over a 370z? Look at a 5 year old Hyundai sometime. They ain't pretty! Sorta of the toothless crack whores of the used car market,
Just look at real sales of these cars used. Genesis coupe sellers aren't getting what resale analytics indicate.

The Genesis has only been out since 2008, how did you get 5 years! People buy cars because they like a particular one, not resale value!
