Agreed... and by all accounts that new Genesis coupe is looking to become one heck of an enthusiast car... Nissan and Toyota/Subaru couldn't get off their asses to build the next-gen cheap RWD coupe, now Hyundai's beat them to it!

I don't think Subaru has anything except AWD.

Nissan's top stuff is AWD. And I think they have the 370z to compete in that Genesis segment. Even though the 370z costs more. Its much more car. You should be comparing it to the higher end Genesis Coupes anyways.

Ford's Mustang is pretty cheap. Starts at 20.

BMW's 128 is pretty close. I'd much rather get one of these. 135 would go up against the higher model Coupes.

Dodge has that challenger that starts at the same 22k price range.

Mazda has the RX-8 that starts at 26.

Toyota... they're Nascar now. Son. Idk wtf they're doing.

Soo, I think companies have been doing it. There's just another sparkle about the new Genesis.

Am I missing some running joke or something? You guys seriously think hyundais are nice? I realize not everyone reads consumer reports, but - I've asked this before, and I guess I'll keep asking - when was the last time you saw a hyundai driving around that was 5 years old or older? I see one a month tops, and invariably its making some god awful screeching/whining/hissing/"broken car" noise. Compare that with the 50 old hondas/toyotas that I see, and each one sounds like it still has 100k+ left in it.

Welcome to 2009, where your hyundai still sucks.
