The genesis is a mish mash of a bunch of cars, the Sedan looks like a BMW from the rear and a benz from the front. The pre-facelift Gen coupe did resemble the G a lot, especially on the street, not in a still photo. Don't forget the new gen G37 is coming out soon, so you never know, they still might look alike again.

I'm actually excited about the new Gen Coupe. I hope its way better than the first one... not saying it's going to happen, but you never know, it actually might not be that bad.

I like the smaller, Veloster very much... it's a neat little hatchback that offers good value. Another thing that I'm starting to like about Hyundai is the fact that they aren't scared to put power in any of their cars. It was mentioned the Veloster will be offered with the 2.0T option that the Gen coupe has. 270hp in one of those and it's going to be a value that not many cars in the class can keep up with.

The new Civic Si is a terrible "upgrade" for the 2012 year. I hope Honda get's their head in the game and brings back some of the features that made the older models so special.

Lets hope the G37 doesn't go catfish style.

I'm excited about the new G, too. I really liked the 1st one. Don't care for the current gen. I have high hopes for the 3rd, though.

Honda... they are done for me. They've fallen into a rut. All of their cars suck from an enthusiast's standpoint.

I dunno, they said the new inifiniti G is going to be inspired by the Essense concept they showed. And that had catfish features.

I'm not a fan of the new fascia. Anyone know how they got the HP bump?

It's like a catfish with puckered botox lips
