New Hyundai sports coupe .... not bad
Hyundai’s new Genesis coupe has been caught uncovered at a market research event sitting next to its toughest competitor, the Ford Mustang. The car was photographed by someone at the event, however nobody has claimed responsibility for the pictures, which turned up on an online forum. The final production version is expected to debut late next year as a 2009 model but a near-production concept version will be unveiled at next month’s Los Angeles Auto Show. The new car will replace the current FWD Tiburon coupe but will feature a much more powerful V6 engine and possibly the new ‘Tau’ V8 powerplant for a flagship model. Rumors suggest a 2.0L Turbo engine with 215hp and 217ft.lb of torque will get an incredibly good price of $19,900, while a 3.8L V6 with 300hp and 280ft.lb would be priced higher at $25,990. It’s also suggested the car would get a limited slip diff and optional Brembo brakes. As you can tell from the aggressive styling, Hyundai is clearly looking to succeed with this coupe where the Tiburon could not. As a company looking to move up in the world, Hyundai is doing a great job styling its new products such as this and the upcoming large Genesis sedan. It’s still likely, however, that Hyundai will use a different badge for the new coupe, just as it did with the Tiburon. that's a hell of a deal. i would rock it.

It will still be a FWD car , and with the 3.8L engine... it will feel like... a BUICK

i guess that would depend on what the buyer wants in a car though ~
i would like to have a car that spits out a lot HP/torque that doesn't cost a lot and that also doesn't mean a car that doesn't cost a lot and spend more than what you paid for the car to make it that way

you could look at it as a $25k G37, or an Eclipse for men.

What's the deal with the droopy window line? Do you think the clay model sat in the sun too long? Straighten out that ONE line & it's a decent looking car. I happen to like the current Tiburon. The previous one was just like WTF, were they on drugs?
