#55 of 64 Yep... by iluvmysephia1 Jul 25, 2009 (12:22 pm)
ya gotta like James Healey's take on the Coupe. If I were really rarin' ta go and get one of these Coupe's this review would not only be helpful it would put several beans in the positive Genesis Coupe front-engine RWD basket. I'd probably favor getting the manual-trannied 4-banger in the lower-range package. In red or orange color. It's a peach!
#56 of 64 Bad Seats!! by fourteen14 Aug 01, 2009 (7:50 pm)
I cleaned my 2006 Azera, put my checkbook in my pocket, and went to my local Hyundai dealer intent upon ordering a new Genesis Coupe. Unfortunately, I will not be driving this car that looks so good online and on paper! Everything was good to go! The Coupe is much nicer in person than online! Then I climbed into the driver’s seat. Ouch! Let me out of here! The seats are absolutely horrible!! Like sitting on a 5-gallon pail with the open side up! The bolsters are so aggressive, so vertical, so close together, and so hard that they make sitting in the Coupe unbearable! The flat part of the seat, where I should be sitting, is so narrow that my hip bones rest on the bolsters rather than the flat of the seat. At 6’-1” and 220# I am not a Korean teenager, but not really that large for an American male either! The hunt for a new car goes on! BTW, the seats in the Nissan 370Z are even worse!!     Replies to this message: ergsum (Aug 02, 2009 6:22 am) fourteen14 (Sep 12, 2009 3:33 pm) LASHAWN (Aug 05, 2009 10:39 am)

Replying to: fourteen14 (Aug 01, 2009 7:50 pm) You might want to try one of the D3 muscle car coupes. Their seats are designed for big AmeriCANs. Replies to this message: fourteen14 (Sep 12, 2009 3:33 pm)

#60 of 64 looking for some owner feedback... by jgriff Aug 15, 2009 (1:05 pm)
Well the Genesis Coupe is on my shortlist for my next new car. I am a sucker for the new models, currently batting .500 on my last 4 cars. Troubles with a ‘98 Olds Intrigue, ‘01 Acura CL had transmission issues. Currently have an ‘03 Mazda 6, and an ‘05 Nissan Xterra. Owned a lot of different brands over the years, but never a Hyundai.   I test droved the Genesis sedan, like it a lot just not sure I want to spend mid 30 or more. Didn’t have time to drive the coupe as it was closing time. But I sat in a 3.8 Grand Touring it to make certain it was a fit for me. I like the setup inside, colors, material on seem pretty decent for a 30k coupe. Love the looks, and RWD setup.   Here are my negative thoughts, I’m a bit disappointed that the steering wheel does not telescope. I don’t think it will be a big factor for me personally, however the other half may have a bit of a problem. No memory seats ?? Heated seats with only an on/off, no hi/lo or variable settings. Even a 25k Mazda-3 has variable heated seats. Love the A/C seats in the sedan, but they should be for the passenger too !!   I’m anxiously waiting for some feedback from owners.

Replying to: ergsum (Aug 02, 2009 6:22 am) Not Camaro! Both my wife (5'-9" & 140#) and I (6'-1" & 220#) found the Camaro's passenger seat too low, too narrow, and not even power on the 'top of the line' SS/RS!!   Actually, it's not about me! It's about why do automakers design 'sporty' models with little seats with big bolsters! Are all people over 6' and 200# supposed to only drive SUV or trucks!??!   PS: I don't know of anyone who has fallen out of a car seat because the bolsters weren't big enough!!!!   PPS: So far this year I have been 99% ready to buy first the Genesis Coupe, then the Nissan 370Z, and then the Camaro SS!! I rejected all three because of their small uncomfortable seats!!   .
#62 of 64 test drove a black 6MT coupe by nj2pa2nc Sep 14, 2009 (6:38 am)
Not overly impressed- way too much road noise and the turbo was a disppointment. I am a fan of Hyundai-own a 05 elantra Gt and previously owned 5 other Hyundai's
