It's a 2.0L Turbo NOT a 2.9L Turbo It's a 24 valve V6 engine, NOT 32 valve. It's a 306HP rated V6 engine, NOT a 299HP.

This car is a real looker in person! Hopefully this is just the beginning of a great car in development. Replies to this message: joshuag (Jan 07, 2009 1:11 am) skylinegtr32 (Jan 07, 2009 5:45 pm) joe97 (Jan 07, 2009 7:47 pm) joshuag (Jan 08, 2009 10:41 am) and 2 more...

Replying to: gtrowner (Jan 06, 2009 6:37 pm) 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.

Replying to: joshuag (Jan 07, 2009 1:11 am) Huge difference in performance though.

Replying to: joshuag (Jan 07, 2009 1:11 am) 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.

#14 of 29 This is what the Prelude should have become by rats Jan 08, 2009 (5:14 am)
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.
#15 of 29 error about the article by wesv Jan 08, 2009 (7:38 am)
Pretty spanky. This is a market that could use some fresh blood. Kinda surprised that there were no pictures of the interior. Wonder if that's a omission or there just was not much to see. As far as the error in the specs. Give Ben a break. He usually writes for the Food section of Edmonds. Now if it was Asparagus he was writing about well....

Replying to: joe97 (Jan 07, 2009 7:47 pm) That's good to know. I didn't know that they were going to put out another Tiburon. The truth is if this new Genesis coupe is half as good as the G35 coupe for the price, it will be a bargain. Replies to this message: joe97 (Jan 08, 2009 1:08 pm) joshuag (Jan 13, 2009 10:24 am)
