Genesis Vs. 370Z

I saw the back of a black Genesis coupe today with dealer tags on it. It actually resembled a G37 to me.

The genesis looks really nice. Is it rear wheel drive and has a 6sp?
I wonder are the specs.

I had to look it up, and I was surprised:

Nissan North America - U.S. Manufacturing
Nissan has three production plants in the United States - in Smyrna and Decherd, Tennessee, and Canton, Mississippi. Production at Nissan's Smyrna Plant began in June 1983. The vehicle assembly plant has an annual production capacity of 550,000 vehicles and represents a capital investment of $2.5 billion. The plant produces the Nissan Altima, Nissan Maxima, Nissan Xterra, Nissan Frontier and Nissan Pathfinder.

The vehicle assembly plant in Canton, Mississippi, began producing vehicles in May 2003. The $1.4 billion plant now produces the Nissan Altima, Nissan Quest, Nissan Armada, Nissan Titan and Infiniti QX56. The plant has an annual production capacity of 400,000 vehicles.

Nissan's powertrain assembly plant in Decherd, Tennessee, began production in May 1997. Today the plant manufactures all the engines for the complete lineup of Nissan and Infiniti vehicles produced in the U.S. The plant also forges crankshafts, and cylinder block casting operations will begin in the spring of 2008.

Rofl Hyundai's ads during the superbowl were brilliant.

Hyundai's Angry Bosses superbowl spot: YouTube - Hyundai Super Bowl XLIII Commercial: Angry Bosses
The Genesis Coupe would've been good but they aired this one during the kickoff show: YouTube - Hyundai Genesis Coupe Epic Lap Commercial

This is a great looking car for 20k. And someone on gencoupe posted that it hits 360hp with ECU off, intake/exhaust, and premium fuel. That's the 25k V6, of course. Prices are just estimates based on korea's and canada's pricing so far. http://www.gencoupe.com/general-disc...no-graphs.html

What's are the factory specs HP/TQ? Unless the factory spec is 350 HP, I barely see any gains with those mods.
