In a dilemma (Z vs 2013 Genesis)

happytheman · 02-18-2012, 01:12 PM

I was interested in both, the Genesis and the Z. Test drove the Genesis and felt like I was really have to work it to wring some power from it. I also was really displeased with the lack of quality of the interior. I found the tranny to be a bit notchy as well.

The Z is just so much more refined. I really felt like I was in a sports car whe in sat in it. Interior quality is top notch and the power and was fantastic for having fun!

In the end, you really have to test drive them both to determine what's best for you.

Oh yeah, one more thing: Something I noticed that was REALLY prevalent int the gen coupe community is that they are all pulling of off the Hyundai badges in lieu of something else. That speaks VOLUMES to me.

At the end of the day it's a Hyundai. Z has a legacy and history behind it. It looks better, sounds better, interior is better. I will go as far as saying a newer 350z like 07 and up looks better and also the Nismo 350z while be significantly cheaper. 370z is no brainer. Why not a roadster 370z?
