I have read reports that it is !4% more structually rigid than the Bimmer and with them mentioning the weight is going to be 'down' on this, I am quite certain the 5-link suspension, the 50//50 weight distrbtion and the 111 inch whlbase seems to have the right stuff. I'm thinking if this isn't all BS that Hyundai has just shown their Asian counterparts that they have been asleep at the wheel. I am blown-away that noone saw this coming and that this car is getting this much attn. I guess the market has grown cold and it took an underdog to heat it up. I say bring it Hyundai and let the crowds come. They are certainly coming for the concept. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TungstonT]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 15th 2007 11:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on EXCLUSIVE: Details on the production Hyundai Genesis Coupe]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/15/exclusive-details-on-the-production-hyundai-genesis-coupe/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/15/exclusive-details-on-the-production-hyundai-genesis-coupe/</guid><description><![CDATA[The biggest hurdle this thing is going to have to overcome are those three little words: <br><br>"It's a Hyundai."]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jake]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 15th 2007 11:23AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on EXCLUSIVE: Details on the production Hyundai Genesis Coupe]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/15/exclusive-details-on-the-production-hyundai-genesis-coupe/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/15/exclusive-details-on-the-production-hyundai-genesis-coupe/</guid><description><![CDATA[Maybe in middle america that's still a problem but on the west coast most people think of hyundai as just another viable option like toyota, nissan and honda.

I'm sure you could put a few grand into it upgrading the turbo, and have it faster than the V6 and cheaper.  Paddle shifters would be very cool.

Hyundai is ripping Toyota and Honda at their own game. They caught them off-guard just like the big three was caught off guard in the early nineties. Can you say Prelude? Does everyone get this. This is not about the 'H' anymore. This is the most significant car to be released by anyone since I have been a follower of the automotive market. Hyundai is now world-class and their sales are going to skyrocket because its all about perception. This car is a paradigm shifting, perception altering machine. Wait til the rags test it and it lives up to the hype. They didn't spend 5 years develping this so it could be a mid-packer.  It's not called 'Genesis' for nothing. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TungstonT]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 15th 2007 11:33AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on EXCLUSIVE: Details on the production Hyundai Genesis Coupe]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/15/exclusive-details-on-the-production-hyundai-genesis-coupe/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/15/exclusive-details-on-the-production-hyundai-genesis-coupe/</guid><description><![CDATA[I am a car enthusiast not a brand loyalist. I bought Toyota/Nissan 4x4s back in the early 80’s due to the best bang for the buck. Way before Toyota had a cult like following. I would buy this car if was right out of college and wanted an entry level performance car. With the money left over you can have fun tuning it.<br><br>I just want manufactures to make exciting cars reliable cars. Many of my friends are hung on brand loyalty. Be it German, American or Japanese. If someone makes a great car after putting out crap I don’t hold their past against them. One of my friends had his Audi bought back via the lemon car law and still tries to tell me that Audi is the best made car.. talk about blind loyalty.<br><br>Kia and Hyundai were the antithesis or reliability on their first go round. They did a 180 when they found out the lowest price without quality will kill your repeat business.<br><br> Kia and Hyundai are what Nissan and Toyota were in the 80’s, keep up the good work.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[AlmsFan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 15th 2007 11:49AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on EXCLUSIVE: Details on the production Hyundai Genesis Coupe]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/15/exclusive-details-on-the-production-hyundai-genesis-coupe/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/15/exclusive-details-on-the-production-hyundai-genesis-coupe/</guid><description><![CDATA[Y'know, this is why American car fans should be happy that Toyota are (or will be by the time I finish this post) our ne Automotive overlords.

I also read that they hired Audi's second in command to head up the engineering department. And that shot of the greenhouse with the dip in the window is the sexiest thing I have seen.
