I also think that Genesis and the Genesis Coupe are similar cars.

nurburgring 11-04-2009 12:39 PM

p.s. the gen coupe in that video looked like a pile of shi*. lol. i hate the look of this car in videos and pictures. in person the track model looks so much better.

Compared to a stock 370z which runs just below 5 or at 5, you are talking almost a whole second.

Z - .99G
Gen coupe - .92G
Z - 104ft (60-0)
Gen coupe - 114ft (60-0)
Z - 12 (0-100)
Gen coupe - 14.2 (0-100)

Not looking good.

no, what matters is real world comparisons.

would love to see both cars lap times around the nurburgring. the Z would edge it out because it is a very fast track but I think you guys would be surprised. the Z would beat the gen coupe 3.8 track by no more then 10 seconds..

Those figures means nothing to OP. Unless it's the other way around.

Winning is winning. No matter by .1 seconds or 10 seconds.

And besides, 10 seconds on track is large number.

comparison on the track is what matters. when numbers are close like that it means nothing.

THIS IS A CHALLENGE. I am more then willing to drive the 2 1/2 hours up to Lime Rock Park in Connecticut and race and compare lap times. Anyone? Would love to have witnesses and video as well. if i get beat i will admit defeat and leave you guys be.

What is 10 seconds, .5 miles or 1 mile (on the ring)?

remember, never said the Gen Coupe was faster. i said the gen coupe has certain advantages over the Z that may well surprise you on certain tracks.

10 seconds on an 11 mile track for a car that cost almost 10k more, has 20 more HP, is 250lbs lighter and is competing against a lowly Hyundai is a little sad if you ask me. sounds to me like the little Hyundai is much closer then it should be for its price point.

Really? Edumnds is ranked as one of the lowest review sites for sports car ever, there focus has always been..."Well it feels a bit rough so I am going to take points off."
When they show little to no tests on performance, braking, etc.

shumby 11-04-2009 12:52 PM

not defensive. I never listen to what edmonds says. They know very little. And their reviews are almost always way out to lunch. They could say the 370Z is the best sports car ever and i still would not quote them as they fail at testing.

dad 11-04-2009 12:52 PM

It's ugly, very ugly, beyond ugly! I don't like it!

10 seconds on the Nurburgring is the different between a Ferrari Enzo - 7.25 and a Porsche 997 Turbo - 7.35 (the car you imaginary have).

No, Edmunds suck, no one is going to argue that.

Please do, you really have no clue about that Mustang and the power, braking, handling, etc. it puts out. You just think because it is a Mustang it is sh1t, but you really need to learn about things called aftermarket parts.

So proves a point that even on a 11 milles Nurburging, 10 seconds is still a lot.
