Right. Hyundai is going to be marketing the V6 Genesis coupe to rivals such as Infiniti's G37 Coupe, Audi's TT Coupe, BMW 1 series, just like they are marketing the Genesis sedan to other Mercedes, BMW's, Lexus, Infiniti, etc.
However the Genesis Coupe is going to compete with the Camaro, Mustang, and Challenger most definitely. Granted its V6 competes very well against the V6 versions of the three mentioned above, but its price puts it in direct competition with the V8 versions that will squash it.
But I like the Genesis Coupe,
heck, if the turbo 4 costs around the same price of a Camaro V6 LS just upgrade the turbo and a few other mods and you could be having a 300hp Genesis like this...
