The car most enthusiasts still sleep on

wheee! · 12-28-2012, 10:55 AM

not sold on the idea of the Gen being an Infiniti killer.... the refinement is WAYYYYY to far off for me in that area. My friend has gone thru 4 transmissions on his 3.8 coupe as well.....

Comments like this remind me how much the current crop of import lovers are exactly like the old, closed-minded domestic enthusiasts.

Refusing to buy a good car because of the brand is something for soccer moms, not enthusiasts.

Yup I'll say it again, I'll never ever own a crooked h badge vehicle lol. Enjoy one if you want.

I guess I'm not a enthusiast. Yup I'll stick to branding with heritage

You drive a Nissan. You realize at one point Datsun was considered a joke brand, right?

You are talking about Datsun 30-40 years ago???

Nissan has proven themselves with the z and gtr for decades now gtfo.........

You guys are funny. Why don't you trade your z's and buy one? Feel free!

The gen coupe been around for how long? Lol.

Are fairly similar to the comments from ford/chevy nuts back when nissan was up and coming.

In fact, I clearly said that, way back here:

Exactly then they proved themselves over time.

The cars they make might be quick as hell, but everyone I know with a Hyndai has had more issues than I have had with any Toyota I have ever had...
The build quality is still **** and even though they come with a 10 year warranty, it seems as if they don't like to replace parts

So god bless them for making fast cars. But don't lie to me and tell me their quality has surpassed Honda or Toyota...

My fiance has a 2010 Gen Coupe 3.8 for almost 2 years now and we havent had any problems out of it. She has daily driven it since she owned it. Granted she probably doesnt drive it hard, but its held up fairly well. I will admit that the interior quality is sub par, and it could use some refining compared to the Z, but its a damn good job for Hyundai's first attempt at the RWD sports car. Especially since we got the R-Spec model for a little north of 25k. Not to mention I have received way more attention driving her car than either my 350z or 370z.

I deficate you not good sir. Every time I drive it people stare. I always get, "what kind of car is that!?" and "you must have a really good job!". I'm thinking that people think its much more expensive than it really is. Even some of my co-workers think my fiance is rich because she has it lol. I have gotten more love in the 370 than in the 350, but the Genesis still trumps the 370 in attention received
