Hyundai Genesis Coupe

First, the Hyundai Genesis Sedan and now the Coupe.  The Hyundai Genesis Sedan is already an amazing vehicle with tons of features loaded and at an affordable starting sticker price of $32,000 compare to the more expensive brands of Lexus, BWM, Infinity, Mercedez, and lets not forget Audi.  I kid you not, the Hyundai Genesis Coupe is as amazing as it sibling, at an extractive starting price of $22,000.  The base model comes with a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine coupled with a turbo, which puts out about 210 horsepower and 223 lb-ft of torque. On the V6 3.8L model, the engine generates 306 hp and 266 lb-ft torque.  All models come with an optional manual or automatic transmission exception of the 2.0T Track model (manual only). From the track performance perspective, the 3.8 Track model sprint from 0-60 mph in an impressive 5.9-second. While the  2.0T with the manual transmission accomplished the same task in 6.9 seconds, which is average compare with other four-banger car in the market.

The 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe is available in six trim levels: 2.0T, 2.0T Premium, 2.0T Track, 3.8, 3.8 Grand Touring and 3.8 Track.  Just from the base model 2.0T, it comes standard with 18-inch alloy wheels, air-conditioning, keyless entry, a tilt steering column, full power accessories, cruise control, Bluetooth and a CD/MP3 stereo with USB/iPod connectivity and steering-wheel-mounted controls.  When you get to the Premium, it adds a power driver seat, keyless ignition, an Infinity audio system, a sunroof and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. Upgrade further to the 2.0T Track,  it adds on 19-inch alloy wheels, Brembo brakes, a sport-tuned suspension, a rear spoiler, xenon headlights, foglamps, a limited-slip rear differential, aluminum pedals and red cloth seat inserts.  With all these trims, you can be sure to find the right car for you.  Prices can increase up to $31,000 for the top 3.8L Track model.

    I think Hyundai really needs to put the new 2.4T GDI engine as the base option as well as for the R-Spec. 2.0T just won’t cut it at all. Plus, get rid of that ugly front grill. Bring around the head light a little more like the new 2011 Sonata, price it at around 20k for the base model, and I think we have a winner.

    @ccuebas19 I test drove a 3.8 a couple weeks ago mainly to see how much stupid there was under the right foot. There was plenty! ;) They had a 2.0T there this weekend so I took that out and there was much more reasonable amount of stupid under the right foot.It really surprised me. I hammered it in 2nd and the reaction from both of us was “woooh….” Really set you back in the seat. Kinda unexpected after three Tiburons…..LOL
