Hyundai has said eleventy-billion times that they won't be offering a VEE AYTE in the Coupe. ]]>Feb 21st 2008 4:05PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/Feb 21st 2008 4:05PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/
people were asking for something that will weigh about 1000 lbs less than this]]>Feb 21st 2008 7:44PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/Hyundai has said the turbo 4 will be in the 225hp range. For the older folks who want the V6, the question is will they put in the 3.3 (249) or 3.8 (290ish)? I'm betting the 3.8 as this is built in Korea and so is the 3.8. Hyundai is building the 3.3 in US now. Early reports said this would be sub $20K but then the other day the base price was listed as $23K. Who knows with Hyundai. ]]>Feb 21st 2008 4:19PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/
The 2.0L I4 turbo (215hp) and 3.8L V6 (over 300hp) will be the two engines.]]>Feb 21st 2008 4:34PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/
Pricing is rumor at this point; although the I4 turbo will keep the price low - Just under 20K base is what I have been hearing]]>Feb 21st 2008 4:38PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/Feb 21st 2008 7:46PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/Feb 21st 2008 4:23PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/
I have suspected that the final production vehicle will share some design cues from the Tiburon, which I don't think is necessarily a bad thing. After all the Tiburon is the only car currently on the market to follow the affordable 2 door true sports coupe profile.

To me this car is the reincarnation of the 180sx. Even the I4 reminds me of an SR20DET. ]]>Feb 21st 2008 11:49PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/
Now for your information I am not talking about huge wing kits, 18 inch shiny rims, tinted windows, sharp pointy custom modded bumpers or skirts, and ground effects at all. I am talking about a mild sport kit sort of like the what the Civic Si and the 2006+ Mitsubishi Eclipse's Aero kit, or the similar sport package that the Mazda 3 & 6 series sport editions have. Basically OEM factory offerings, not local tuner and custom mod shop styles. Lip spoilers and mild trim help to keep it modern, sporty, and mildly aggressive even after 5 years later, sort of like the Tiburon and the 2nd Gen Mitsubishi Eclipse (98 & 99). I'm sure that some will agree that the nakedness may make the car age sooner than it really should, requiring a redesign in 1-2 years.]]>Feb 22nd 2008 2:04AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/Feb 21st 2008 4:42PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/02/21/spy-shots-hyundai-genesis-caught-in-sweden/

with the dip? polarizing and i'd never even consider it.

without the dip? depending on the price for the turbo... it is certainly possible. ]]>Feb 22nd 2008 5:38AM
