Really, I'd love to compete against one of those on the racetrack. I think it will provide some spirited competition.

looks pretty slick but i dont think it will be close to compete against american muscle. maybe the g37 and the 350z.

The G37s and the upcoming 370Z will have 330 hp, so that is the bogey here. Ford will definitely have to up the HP ante now if it wants to compete not only with the other pony cars, but the serious import performance cars as well. The 350Z and the G37 are currently much more expensive than the Mustang, saving it for now, but when this comes out I would expect it to come close to Mustang pricing. Ford can't get the next gen Mustang out fast enough. See, its reasons like this that it is a good thing the Camaro is coming out later. Of course Ford will have to beat the Hyundai, and Chevy will have to beat Ford.

BUT basically it was talking about the LA auto show...

Hyundai is looking to branch out into the traditional front-engine, rear-drive American pony-car segment with its Genesis Coupe concept (a thinly disguised prototype of a production version slated to launch next year. The 2-door coupe, which will be pitted against the Ford Mustang and upcoming Chevy Camaro and Dodge Challenger, is being shown with a 3.8-liter V-6 making 300 bhp. No word yet on whether the coupe will come with the Genesis sedan's announced V-8 powerplant.

Come on!! Hyundaii thinking they can compete?!?!

Thought it was just a bit hilarious...

But thats like Korean muscle.......doesnt event sound right. They dont do very well with missles either. If I see one out while I'm drivin "V1C1OUS" ( yeh thats her name ).....I'm gonna smoke em....How to you say "ha! you suck!!" in Korean?

That was from over a year and a half ago ... and for the record its the South Koreans that make Hyundais, not the anti-American North.
