Come to think of it. Insecure and bitter almost perfectly describes someone who makes up a test-drive crash in a Z and makes up driving a Porsche that's owned by an imaginary girlfriend...all for attention.

We all know the 370Z outperforms the Genesis in most areas, but the price difference and how far Hyundai has come in the last few years makes it a nice option for those who want a nice sports coupe. It is good to not see the bashing like in other forums. Had this been a Camaro forum, and he decided on the Gen coupe instead, there would have been 1000 replies calling him an idiot or a moron. Obviously this forum has much more class!!
I'm a car enthusiast (which I think is safe to say most of us here are car enthusiast first, Z enthusaust 2nd), which can find the good in pretty much any car (within reason). While the genesis didn't catch my eye for more than a few mins, it is a great car for the money and I really hope it sells well and continues to evolve. If it follows the same path from Tiburon->Genesis->?? the next one will kick pretty major ***. I just hope they lose the rear window-droop.

BTW, I like the way the camaro's look on the outside, but that interior turned me off...I even get GM discount but couldn't go for it because of the interior and just how heavy the overall car is. The '69 camaro on the other hand, I'd drive in an instant...I miss the raw feel of cars like that.

That being said...to the OP...

You came on the forum excited about the Z because you crashed one in a freakin' test drive. You claimed to have a 911 turbo and be a professional driver and never denied it until just now. You are extremely immature for all of the above reasons, and the only constructive post you have on this forum was a review of the Genesis compared to the Z. It's people like you that make anyone reading this forums have to sift through BS just to find useful information.

Well...I must say. In the time that I've been away from this thread in a meeting...its has turned into pure WIN. I didn't make the connection before between the OP and the test drive crash thread.

Yeah, that was the first one I had seen. However, there is a dealership outside my office window that sell them now I like the car, I don't think they look half bad. I just can't get past the manufacturer. If the 370z was badged as a Hyundai, I wouldn't have bought it. They signify cheap in my warped little brain. Like I said, I'm not saying its right......because they could make the best car ever created and I would miss out on it.

I can't believe anyone on this forum is even giving this D-bag the time of day. Take a look at his past posts and you'll get an idea of what an arrogant liar this guy is..

Congrats on the purchase. Hope this doesn't happen to your new ride -> Genesis Coupe goes up in flames with less than 800 miles on the odo.
