Hyundai Genesis 3.8 is CONFIRMED faster than 370z
 

..by .1 second through the 1/4 mile with identical 0-60mph times.

Actually, it's not. With an equally skilled driver in the same conditions the 370 should be a bit quicker than the Genesis.

Even inside line called in "in-line" rather than "faster."

IBTL.

This is funny to me because those numbers aren't faster than what we're obtaining in the Z... Real world numbers are going to butt hurt Hyundai.

It's all a range. You're going to have instances where the Z is quicker or slower, but assuming all things are equal, the Z should be quicker.

+1

Bear in mind mag numbers are usually corrected to a standard, rather than the "best case" numbers you see on forums

IL numbers for the 370Z were lower across the board than anybody else that tested it ...

Edit I just did some research...most testing resulted in 0-60 of 4.6 seconds and 1/4 of 13.0 seconds for the Z

If you plug the hp and curb weight numbers into an online 0-60 calculator like 0-60 mph Calculator for Cars , they come up within .05 sec of each other. It's a tie.

In before the lovin

They confirmed with a VIDEO that the leaf was faster than the Z:ugh2:

I wouldn't use calculator for times since it doesn't take into acount aerodynamics/tire width, weight distribution, etc

They say the 3.8 is in line...(slightly slower)

Or gearing...

or driver

Or weather conditions

:iagree: With Kingbaby driving the 350Z, we would never lose.

:iagree:Those to :tiphat: way too many intangible factors for a calculator

also geographic location affects times as well!

If the Hyundai Genesis Coupe is faster, it's still not any reason to /wrist /life

Faster cars are gonna come out, pplz. Faster cars have come out.

Such is life, enjoy your ride :D

Or oil temp
























:stirthepot:

Yeah...but....Hyundai

areodynamics won't matter much in a 0-60 (bigger effect ton 1/4 mile and beyond). The calculator is a theorectical "what the car can do in perfect conditions" rather than end-all. I assume the companies will use the best tires/gearing that are reasonably priced or they would be cutting their nose off to spte their face. This particular calculator always comes in a bit fast compared to real world times but relativily, it's always close to real world. There are more detailed ones that consider elevation, torque, etc but you have to get a lot of extra data and the results don't vary much at all. It much much harder to evaluate track speeds where tires/weight distribution, etc. have an even bigger effect.

:tup:

I only remember my wins...too many losses to fit in my head...LoL

+1

I agree the calc can be used for perfect conditions...


we'll just have to wait till they hit the strip...

troll thier forums!:roflpuke2:

Hey!!! That's a really nice BMW you have there... O wait... Its a Hyundai, forgot they have award winning designers!

:bowrofl::bowrofl:

The 2012+ MY 370z's come equipped with an oil cooler, so... :ugh2:
:icon18: I bet it beats Mustangs 0-60, since apparently 370z's do, and these beat 370z's.

1 word for 0 to 60 times

~~~Prius~~~

fixt and lulz

lol, my bad. Helps if you spell it right

2013 gen = Curb Weight:3,433 LBS
2013 370z = Curb Weight:3,232 LBS


correct me if I'm wrong

You also know why it was faster? They had some skinny little person drive the Hyundai, no joke the dude was like 110... NOW, in the 370z the dude must have been like 350 and his foot was so big he kept touching the brake

lol

The Gen coupe is like my last girlfriend... it looks better from the back.
