I like the more aggressive look of the 370Z over the genesis.

I think you will see many gen coupes embarrasing 370's. You can buy a fully loaded 2.0T for 23k, That comes with Torsen LSD, Brembos and vented rotors, 6 speed trans and all the bells and whistles of interior stuff like navi and 7 speaker infinity sound system, then put another 5-7k into the motor upgrading the turbo components and then be over 400 wheel. The 411BT is a proven platform for 500whp. I love the Z and I would probably get a Genesis if I had never sat in the new 370, but I am fully aware of the tuner capabilities of the Genesis Coupe. They will be a tuners dream and Hyundai has been very forward about that being their goal for the 2.0T R. Millen got a Coupe FREE to mod and its a monster... and HKS got a coupe for free as well. anyone that doesnt think this car is a serious contender will be sadly proven wrong...... just my .02 I still love the Z though

I applaud Hyundai on the Genesis coupe, but I agree the look of the 370Z is more aggressive.

HELL YEAH!

The Genesis STILL looks like an old person's car, even as a coupe. I like the Genesis - don't get me wrong. But I like the looks of the 370 millions of times more.

It looks like internet capable?

Zguy · 01-11-2009, 04:52 PM

Just won North American Car of the Year = Genesis.... Talk smack all you want... looks like Hyundai is coming up fast.... I said I like the Z but im not going to be ignorant because a name brand is on it. Im sure you dont run around buying things just because they have a brand name on them? Do you only buy Brand Name drugs or do you get the generics to save money? The same people and same machines put all that we use together... they just put a different name on it..... even down to the bread you eat.... I worked for Mrs Bairds Bread .... popular down south..... We made all the Mrs Bairds bread along with the Walmart brand and Kroger brand and any other prival label bread.... and it was ALL the same.... Have pride in what you like and what you chose to buy but dont be ignorant and say because its a certain brand its garbage.... actually if you look at the stats Hyundai has better quality than Nissan..... BTW.... I still love the Z....

The 2009 award is for the Sedan, not the coupe. There is an article about it in the off topic: other vehicles forum. Totally different cars

I was quoting it because of the Kia is still a Kia comment. Was just defending Hyundai's quality.
