Genesis Coupe 6 spd Experience

I have had my Genesis now for a little over a month. Bottom line is that it has a great sports car feel at a price of a "regular" car. I have owned Hondas and BMWs for years. Nothing drives like a BMW but very expensive when the warranty expires. Hondas are rock solid but a bit pricey. I compared the Genesis and Civic SI. Hyundai was unknown to me as I have never owned but the extra warranty (5yr,50K) and Assurance program really made me give it a shot. I am glad I did as I really enjoy driving the car. So far so good as the quality seems outstanding and nothing, even minor, to report. Time will tell. Good job Hyundai...the Coupe is great value & performance in one beautiful package!

Great ride, People think it's a new BMW or Lexus. I test drove the G37,TL,TSX,IS 250, and 350. This car is right up there with all of them. Handles like a sports car when you stomp on the gas. You can beat the price with the options it comes with. I was skeptical at first of a Hyundai, and how people were going to rag on me. But ever one loves it. I had to wait a week to get the one that I wanted but it sure what worth it.

great value but with a caveat

Bought the base model with automatic trans. and have been test driving (breaking it in ) since got it. Generally fun to drive but base model lacks power and engine is noisy like hell during 1st. and 2nd.gears upshifting. Even while it's in idle the throttle vibrates like a wild pony. Other than that it's been great so far - the technology included like Bluetooth, XM radio, Ipod connection can't be beat. The handling is great - you can feel how firm the steering is, gas mileage not bad .either

2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 Track 2dr Coupe (3.8L 6cyl 6A)

I test drove manual and automatic. Manual is ok - it's stiff and jerky. However, it had short-shift installed which was very nice. ZF-automatic 6speed on 3.8 is Excellent!!!. I bought 3.8 Track and it's fund to drive. Tough ride, but worth it. It handles curves like M3. I'll buy GenCoupe over Infinity(nissan) or Lexus(toyota) coupe. I saved money not buying Japanese this time, got more for the money and FUN to DRIVE. I love this car. When Hyundai come out with new Genesis coupe in 5-6 years from now, I'm sure it will be even better.

I knew I wanted a fast car that is affordable, so I looked at the entry level of high-end cars, and fully loaded cheap thrills. From Chevy Cobalt SS to the Camaro, from Nissan Sentra SE-R to the Altima, from Honda Civic Si to Mazda 3... and a few more. I found out that the base model of the Genesis Coupe 2.0T has plenty of toys to keep me busy... An advise: keep both hands on the wheel in high speeds... I got the Genesis Coupe because the Hyundai brand proved to me their engineering and quality of the Sonata, mainly the ESC and ABS technologies. Plus, I always wanted a rear-wheel-drive car. You can't beat the fact that you only need to use regular unleaded, although you got the turbo there.
