The rating for the V6 is 306hp regular, and 310 on premium
 
2.0L I4 turbo pumps out 212hp on regular and 223 on premium.
 
Having seen this first-hand, photos do no justice to the styling of this car.
 
And, I'd put the Infiniti G as a more direct competitor to the Genesis coupe (V6), rather than the Z. Even the article brings up the G.
 
This car promises to bring a lot of fun

It's a 24 valve V6 engine, NOT 32 valve.

This car is a real looker in person! Hopefully this is just the beginning of a great car in development.

I went and looked at the new Genesis sedan and that is truly a beautiful car. My only concern with this new coupe is the price. I know it will be a bargain considering what equipment it has for the money, but to me it still looks a lot like the Tiburon it replaces, and the Tiburon is over 5,000 cheaper than this new Genesis coupe. Im sure it is worth it, but with the economy the way it is, people want a bargain.

FWIW, the Genesis coupe isn't a replacement of the Tiburon. While the Genesis coupe arrives in showroom soon as a new vehicle, the Tiburon is going on hiatus until the replacement arrives (cues from the Veloster concept) in a little while, at least that's the intent.

This is what the Prelude should have become by rats

I always wished Honda would build a V6 Prelude with some guts like this Genesis Coupe, kudos to Hyundai. I never understood why Honda produced the 4cyl Civic AND a 4cyl Prelude, stupid.
 
I'll be watching this one closely.
