I think it stems from the unreliabilityof the Genesis Coupe 2.0. Over the years Hyundai just couldn't get it together when it came to the 2.0. They replaced 50% of the transmissions and I have had many ECU issues on the 2.0. Modders have been very dissatisfied with the output of the pre 13 models. Posts: 13 the Genesis Coupe isn't as bad but the same tranny issues exist and many customers complain the car does not feel like a turbo.
the 3.8 puts down more power more torque $2000 more. turbo and supercharger kits are cheap for the 3.8 and costs about the same how to mod as the 2.0. The 2.0 end results in half the output. and no transmission issues with the 3.8

From the way the article reads, it also seems like the gencoupe will be going harder at the Q 60 coupe aka g37. By cutting out the 2.0 they can invest more money into the 3.8 to make it a better competitor.

With the new Kia GT Coupe RWD concept out now I'm pretty sure the 2.0 will be used in that car and will probably have better transmission and ECU mapping. The Kia GT, looks like it may be a FRS killer?
