Hyundai has had a long history of cheap boring cars but ever since the late 2000s they have been stepping up their game.
They came out with the genesis a while back and they have re-made it.
The genesis is just a fun RWD sports coupe. It also comes in a bigger "sporty" sedan.
The coupe however starts at around $26,750 and gets 16/25 MPG.
The standard coupe from $26,750 had a 3.8L348-hp V6 with 18 inch alloys and a 6spd transmission. The 3.8 R-SPEC come with same horsepower but with bigger wheels. But the R is just as fast and looks nearly the same but for $29,500. There's also a 3.8 Ultimate which is the highest you can go. It has the same exact engine and tranny as the other two but has an exterior trim. That one starts at $33,400! For the same car but with new trim.
The Auto Opinion
This car has nearly 150 more horsepower than an FR-S and cost cheaper than a BRZ and FR-S starting. So why not get this car? I prefer this car over an FR-S after finding this out. It doesn't look bad. Has more equipment than an FR-S. So all around better car?
The packages in my opinion are just stupid. Goes from $26,000 to $33,000 for the same speed and same equipment. Just has a few key features. If I were to buy one I would buy the base model. Same everything as the other two. If you want bigger wheels just buy some after market and you will still pay less than the higher package.
This car is in The Auto Top and it has replaced the Scion FR-S
