Seriously guys, the G70 looks even better than the stinger. Addresses the quality issues some state. Is directly competitive to a 340i or Q50.
Has features like LAUNCH CONTROL on every model. And is just a handsome package.

The Genesis brand is hitting the mark thus far. Hyundai has overcome huge feats in design and performance in 8 years. And the 5 years before that they proved their reliability. Sure they've had some rattles and the AISIN transmission had issues. But they went in house and fixed those issues. I think that's amazing!!!

Just when they are getting their performance edge. This is what their. CEO predicts...

deadspin-quote-carrot-aligned-w-bgr-2<\/title><\/svg>')}.f_branding_on.blog-group-deadspin .editor-inner.post-content .pu

So basically, he's telling the world gas engine performance is almost obsolete and heritage will mean nothing shortly.

Not a way to sell your brand new performance cars are on sport oriented chassis.

No N division due to electric performance??? Only if we could all support Ferrari who refuses to make electric cars.

Man that's an impressive ride. I still love how Hyundai is pushing that envelope a bit further and raising that bar a bit higher.

The important part of all this... from the Stinger or G70. It's a BRAND NEW entry. Having a brand new entry is what pushes forward interest. Alfa n Hyundai took huge risks in the lame, one sided, mind controlled, immunized, fluoridated and GMO'd American drone market and tried to give us what we ask for that we always later push away.

Americans wanted the GTR. It's not doing well vs it's pre entry demand. They wanted the euro spec focus, after years of crying, they didn't buy it, now it's gone. They wanted Alfa a to come back. Now that they're here all they talk is unreliability. The car hasn't been on American soil long enough to even know if it's reliable. What do u expect from the only nation pushing for 26 genders as a national standard so aggressively? Smh. Can u imagine, 26 restrooms at the movie theater?

Our car market and everything else has been ruined by pansies.

People have just lost that thrill for driving excitement...I absolutely love the fact that other manufacturers are giving us what WE are looking for. The GTR is an incredible machine but at those prices you'd be better off with a newer Stingray or a Camaro...just as much bang for less buck!!

A GTR still eclipses vettes and camaro's. But you can get 8.5/10ths of a GTR for half the money. Less than 10k in mods will take u in the GTR arena.

As a camaro owner though. I can say, the cornering capability is shockingly amazing. There's a learning curve to it cuz of the size. But once u master a camaro. It is one of the most rewarding cars you can drive.


Going back to the G70. I think they are going to offer near bespoke outlining like the mini coppers? If this rumor is true? This is gonna be an awesome car to own, because you can very possibly have a one of a kind original. N that would be awesome.

They are beautiful cars. If the Koreans can get their transmissions refined, then I'm game.
