Camaro v6 vs Hyundai Genesis Coupe V6

FIRST PLACE: Hyundai Genesis Coupe
Best viewed from behind the wheel, where it handles entertaining roads more like a sports car than a pony- or musclecar.

SECOND PLACE:
Chevrolet Camaro
Powerful, refined V-6 and enough style to lend some to Hyundai, its weight and size make it less entertaining on second- and third-gear roads.

This is going to be a healthy competition...

not to mention now that Hyundai is Global auto manufacture #4, surpassing Ford...

It seems like Hyundai has passed domestic car companies. They are clearly going for Japanese cars now. Yes, this is the reality.

It was really pointless posting this man. About 98% of the people here will hate on anything that does not read CAMARO. Maybe they are in denial that a Hyundai is handing a camaro its ass. Nice pictures of the genesis coupe though.

True.

I like the Red Genesis Coupe. Very clean looking.

Have you seen this? Very cool.

Yeah, I have seen that. It's pretty cool. I am not a fan of the red. I like the black version they have out, or I like the matte black version in the pics. I have recently been up and down between what do I want? Do I want a 350-400hp genesis coupe? or a 450-550hp evo x ? So props to you with the evo, they are truly sick cars if done right. Not to hi jack the thread, but if I were to do a evo, the link is almost what I would have it like, except more power, and in black without the mitsu grille piece, with the silver rims in the lower pics... http://forums.evolutionm.net/evo-x-s...x-project.html

...and about 98% of the people who own Emos will hate on anything that does not read Emo. ...so why do they troll the Camaro forums?

I think I need to put you in line in regards to a few things. I like the camaro, but don't like most of the owners. Most of the owners feel like they own the best car ever, and its far from the truth, I know I dont own the best car. I am not cocky, I just state the facts, and personal opinions from time to time. I also don't troll, thanks.

If I were to go for the EVO thousands upon thousands would probably be dumped into it. Just to make it a even better car, and street car. Id do suspension upgrades, better tires, rims, a wing ( not a ricer wing ), all of the basic bolt ons, and either a single turbo set up, or a twin turbo set up with a built engine.

I wouldn't call it 'handing a Camaro its ass' It keeps up no doubt, and if the Genesis driver is better it'll definitely win. But thats goin a lil far. I know my Camaro isn't going to beat everything, I know there are always faster, better handling cars. But I still love my Camaro the most

-edit- and seeing as how your Genesis is SC'd, I doubt I'd keep up

Just to put it into perspective, it's
14.4 sec @ 98.3 mph vs 14.2 sec @ 99.8 mph

As per the article above.... That's not exactly leaving the camaro for dead.

I believe strongly these two cars are very closely matched. .2 seconds and 1.5 mph in the quarter stock for stock is pretty much a drivers race with a slight advantage going to the Genesis.

ZZZZZzzzzzzZZZZZzzzzzzzzz, Snore. Nice looking vehicle but it's just not a Camaro.
I would suggest taking your facts and mag article over to the import boards, plenty of lemmings there.
