So what does everyone think of the Genesis Coupe?

[wrath]

nice to see wrath turned this thread into a gm nutswinging thread.....

I can go the same way with the fifth generation Ford Mustang. It's definitely a better bargain than the G8 and Genesis, it's just dated.

I just like GM better.

Yea it was a discussion thread, but if there is one thing I know about wrath is that arguing with him can be like a broken record. For good or bad, once he has his mind made up about cars, homes, whatever, he won't be changing it. Even if you have hard facts if it ain't on the record he will play back the same old.

I will tell you one thing I learned. I did not know you could get the G8 with the LSx in a 6-speed manual.

And I thought this was going to be a cool thread about the new 4-cylinder turbo RWD coupe on the market....Not an e-fight over why GM is better than a Hyundai.

The point is that the G8 is a fat car

No, your point wasn't that the G8 was a fat car. Otherwise you would have said:

The G8 GT is a fat car.

preferably in your own thread.

YOUR point was trying to make a comparison b/w the G8 vs that of the Hyundai Genesis Sedan...or what you most likely thought was a coupe version of said sedan...which this isn't.


NOW, after the fact, you are hasitly still trying to come back and say:

Woah, woah, woah! Did I say G8 GT? No, what I meant to say was G8 base. Yeah, that's it!

And did I say 100hp?!? Pish posh! I was simply using hyperbole...you know, just for fun.

And you know I said (and I'll directly cut and paste my own quote for empahsis):

Oh, wait, you can get a G8 GT for less than the 3.8L Genesis and make 100hp more

^Well, I don't even KNOW what I was talking about ^there^^

silly me!

Yep, pretty much every point, very wrong.

Like I said...at least look at the pictures and at least see what the thread is about in the future. And also, at least maybe get your facts right before posting too...but work on figuring out what the thread is about first.

Baby steps wrath, baby steps.

Listen...no one is going to cross shope the genesis coupe and G8 anything. No 4 banger to v6 or v8 comparison. No v6 to v6. No v6 to v8.

No doubt, it's a good thing we actually quoted what you origninally said...otherwise I have no faith that you'd left it up there with how far out-there it was, lol.

Just thought I would update this thread, as someone on another forum I post on posted some pics of awesome looking coupes.

Looks like rim swaps with a drop... I'll be honest they look SEXXXY!

true. but everything looks better on volks or bbs wheels! lol even neons

[Prince Valiant]

FWIW, MT tested one going 14.0 (both auto and manual) both at 101mph...the turbo 4 is reputed to be 14.5 @ 95mph...

[Silver86]

holy crap... i think im in love!

[nissmo127]

This is the car Nissan failed to bring for the last 20+ years..... I Love It! Its like a poor mans G35/37 but with a turbo 4 siiick
4B11 platform will probably prove to be this countries SR20DET(I wish it had the SR'S closed deck but closed deck sleeves will surely be available soon)

Sharing some parts(?) with EVO guys will help to (those fools break crap daily already seeing blown-up/upgrade posts on evo m).
I will be purchasing one for my shop as soon as we sell the GST rwd project. I hope to do some upgrades while waiting for a cheap block to come available from a evo to sleeve and build up,,,I am wondering if open source guys have jumped in yet??

[URLOZIN]

Never really been a fan of hyundai, but I like it alot.

[That_Guy]

wow those are great looking

[jakedrew]

cant believe no one posted about AMS having one.

[wrath]

Is it just me or is the rear camber fscked up? It looks like a 911 set up for track duty. Or is it just a crappy camera?

I like how the AMS one has pictures of more than just the body.
