even w/ a supercharger still not gonna handle

Exactly. The Z would still have superior balance.

also, on the street where are you going to use (or need) all this power? it's like a magazine spec-racer imaginary street race going on which realistically ends up in a pole or tree with VDC turned off...

Hyundai has been steadily improving for years and they need these kinds of things to really get people's attention. I couldn't foresee myself getting rid of the Z for it but it's still a nice car.

I really like the looks of the Genesis. Inside doesn't thrill me, but it's decent. My hang up is that it's a Hyundai. If Honda bought them out and it became the Honda Genesis Coupe, I'd buy one. Just can't get over that it's a Hyundai.

And maybe this will change in a few years. I'm sure when Honda, Datsun and Toyota first landed in the US that the feelings were the same.

Or maybe I'm just a brand snob.

Based on a friend's experience with his Genesis, Hyundai has a ways to go quality and support-wise. His 2010 model was in the shop for a WEEK waiting for a replacement master cylinder. It's not the first time it's sat in the shop waiting for routine parts. The car now has 16k miles on the odometer.

No loaner car, no free detailing, nothing. I think the problem is they are trying to sell Lexus/Infiniti level cars in the same shop that is pushing out $10k econo boxes.
