Not really - the Genesis coupe will also be available as a 4 banger econobox and that puts it more in-line with the Cobalt. The Cobalt SS may not look as classy as the performance version of the Genesis, but it should be something Hyundai Genesis buyers consider before making a purchase. Anyone have Nurburgring numbers for the Genesis coupe?

Here's a better perspective. Interior space and finish seems more Cobalt than Camaro:

I think everyone here is sorta missing the point with the Hyundai Genesis Coupe. What Hyundai is doing is bringing back an affordable, fuel efficient, RWD 2+2 seater coupe that since the late 90's (and after the 4th gen Camaro was killed off in 2002) at least here in the U.S market we have had literally no choices in this segment except for the Ford Mustang, which for the last 6 years has literally had no competition in the market.
And what I'm talking about is a RWD 2+2 seater in the 18k-30k range. Yeah we had the 30k+ GTO for all of 3 model years, but really think what cheap affordable RWD car has there been offered in the last half decade? Literally nothing, except for the Mustang. And Hyundai is sorta bringing this segment back with the Genesis Coupe. So to enthusiasts like myself who may not necessarily care for the car itself, we're happy to see that once again we could be seeing the return of affordable RWD 2+2 seater coupes, that have been absent in the U.S market for so long. AND there's already evidence of this segment returning with news of Nissan supposedly coming back with a 240SX replacement, and news of the Toyota/Subaru RWD/AWD sports coupe. In 3-4 years we could see a large return of cars to this segment. And the Camaro is going to be right in the middle of it and not just battling its domestic counterparts the Challenger and the Mustang, but also cars like the Genesis Coupe. Although the SS will be kicking their asses....

SS? Your profile says Sport and Edmunds says that those are currently a hair over $18,000 after rebate.
