Hyundai Genesis

[EH 370z]

I think this is a really nice looking car.

Thoughts?

that does look rather nice - need more data !!

Hyundai's are starting to look better if you can get past the badge (I still can't get past them after my housemate had an awful P reg Accent coupe in uni).

that looks remarkably like the 350gt/g35 infiniti.

 

I think that looks awesome to be honest. If it comes with a 5 year warranty or something then it will be a major seller I reckon.

[DoogyRev]

Looks good..... but I am going to have to see more pics. You never know it may have some hideous backside

[AK350Z]

Shame the engines are always down rated to ensure they don't endanger the warranty

[Spidermonk]

Definately looks good.

 

I'm probably biased as until I got the Z I owned a 1998 gen 1 2.0l Hyundai Coupe for 6 years, getting rid of it a few months ago when the ABS system died taking the whole braking system with it. In that time it passed all it's MOT's first time, and apart from replacing the usual friction parts and a few oil changes it didn't cost me a penny.

 

I considered getting a replacement gen 3 but the engines were such a let down power wise, even the 2.7 L produced less than 200bhp, so performance wasn't inspiring.

I like them, although it does look like they ran out of time or got bored designing the rear arches.

[Railgun]

Not bad looking, but I agree with what's been said about seeing past the badge. I went to look at the RCZ . Loved the interior and the back end, but couldnt get my head past the lazy front end design with all Peugeots looking the same, and the badge!

On the other hand you get people who would buy the new BMW 1 series just because it's from the "premium" marque...even if it has a face only a mother could love ...harsh words..i know How ironic..we live in a strange world

[Zugara]

Can see lots of different cars in that one.

 

Jim, don't worry about the arse,

[sasha@lazytrips]

I think it looks pretty neat and with that engine, I'd imagine there would be copious opportunity to improvise. As for the badge, I really don't see how anyone who owns a Nissan can be a badge snob.

Looks wise it's not bad. Should go alright. Pardon my ignorance, but I'm presuming they're FWD? If so, putting a V8 into a FWD would somewhat of a wild ride, if they did go with that as an option.

2+2, RWD, 3.8 V6 or 2.0 Turbo. Stacks up well against the Z and G37 in tests.

 

Has been around almost 3 years already but LHD only. Rumour has it the next gen model will be designed for RHD (for UK/Japan/Australia).

I saw a couple in dubai last year (pre facelift) and it was stunning

 

Never understood why they didn't bring it here the previous coupes did well here and aren't a patch on this one

[JetSet]

Hmm, very nice

[magic84]

i think they would sell loads of these in the uk

[ds2000]

Saw one in Vietnam of all places, lovely looking car and a nice note too!

[AMT]

Not so sure on the facelift tbh Coming from a current coupe owner lol And that little chink in the rear window. Least the old one had classic lines, this ones a bit...OTT.
