No, but you figure that someone putting $35k down on a car would do a little research on other sports in the same price range. And the genesis is the same price range.

I think a lot of the Genesis Coupe bashing simply comes from the "it's a Hyundai" stigma. I test drove both the turbo 4 and the 3.8. While I did think the turbo 4 was garbage ( not nearly enough power for the car's weight), I thought the 3.8 was rather impressive. Very nice exhaust note and a nice ride.

Nah, ive read a little about their times. They arent close to as quick as a 370 and they definitely dont look as good. I would never pay for that car when you look at all the options of cars around the 370 price range. I would think many would agree with me...

Then again, I did see a middle-aged woman driving an Audi RS4 yesterday, so I guess nothing is as it seems. |
