2013 Revised Hyundai Genesis Coupe - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

If you hadn't bought your Camaro yet, and given your predispositions to that kind of car...I can see this being an issue...

I can't imagine replacing a Camaro with that, though....:(

I'm sorry but that is atrocious. There's so many things going on in the front end that it makes me think of this...

Man1acs · 12-30-2011, 06:22 AM

I need to win the lotto so I can just have 1 of all the cars. Will never let go of my Maro. She might get a sister though.

Look into the BRZ.

The car looks alright, but I like the looks of the current gen more.

These Hyundai front fascias are getting worse and worse.

bmorecam · 12-30-2011, 06:24 PM

I have to agree, the current generation coupe has a more simpler look, and I do think the new face lift on the 2013 look a little busy, but I'm sure there will be alot of aftermarket body kit builders who will probably think the same. I don't think is hideous enough to overlook though.

The BRZ seem cool.. but I think is too miata like for me and not enough power for my taste. I been keeping my eyes on the new ford ST though

just not too sure if I can handle the 5 door hatch lol. They been making lots of noise in europe for years. I wonder what made ford finally decide to make the name ST production in the states.

The good thing is that I haven't made up my mind on anything as of yet. I might even decide to look towards a V8, or I might just decide to keep my camaro and continue with my plans. Whatever I decide, I really doubt trading in my V6 camaro would be downgrading. Is not like I am trading in my ZL1 to get a genesis coupe, LOL

I just can't get myself to believe in and trust the Hyundai name brand.

AZCamaroFan · 12-30-2011, 09:51 PM

anyone know how many total they've sold? i know the first year they only sold 10k

4DoorRocket · 12-30-2011, 11:28 PM

Since when did sales numbers mean a thing? They don't. The first year, a limited supply was released. Obviously it's not the most popular car, but it does have it's own fan base, just like every other car. If you don't like it, don't get it. Simple. No need to bash it or say anything negative about it. Like it? Buy it if you want.

I know I will personally be looking into getting a 4 cyc one when I move back home. You can't beat a 271 horsepower car for a decent price and get decent gas mileage. Not to mention, after some bolt ons and a tune, it will have a nice gain in power. It will be a good DD car.

Looks like the new FT-86 cars (Scion FR-S, Subaru BRZ, Toyota 86).
I think I prefer the Genesis Coupe compared to the FT-86 though.

It's a low number. But hyundai is a low-volume player at the moment in the US market...so relatively speaking...I imagine they're selling about as successfully for the company as Challengers are.

If it's too survive in the market? It means everything. But that "minimum" number varies from company to company.

Not going to push the issue, I just wanted to answer your question.

My brother has an 06 Optima for his wife and he has an 09 CTS, guess which one has been the most reliable by a long shot......... Hint, it is not the Caddy....

^ Ya, I'm definitely starting to warm up to Hyundai, the only bad I can see so far is the resale value sucks.
