More competition is gonna produce better sports cars and always has.

they didnt rush it. it was in development since about 2004 i remember first reading about their rwd coupe development.
but since it is a Hyundai, they didnt make it a pure sports car they wanted it to appeal to a broader audience, thus they had to make it more day to day. So either they took a regular coupe and made it sportier, or took a sports car and make it more everyday. Either way their intention then was a broader market for sales. They still have growing to do and so they can't do a specialized market car just yet.
P.S for everyone knocking the Hyundais they are currently #1 in owner loyalty.. yup.. more return Hyundai buyers than any other brand.
