So either they took a regular coupe and made it sportier, or took a sports car and make it more everyday. Either way their intention then was a broader market for sales. They still have growing to do and so they can't do a specialized market car just yet.

P.S for everyone knocking the Hyundais they are currently #1 in owner loyalty.. yup.. more return Hyundai buyers than any other brand.

I'm not knocking Hyundai. I'm just saying if your gonna slap V8 429hp motor in a two door, it better be considered a true sports car. Sports cars will always be a niche market and can't satisfy a broad market because of the inherent impracticality associated.

Hyundai seems to push price points above anything else, I want to see what they can do without limitations. Honda, Toyota & Nissan took decades to grow, Hyundai is late in the game and sprinting to catch up, which is why there is so much talk.
