every other comment is should be fantastic, unless it weighs too much. finally car companies are starting to realize that performance enthusiasts look at weight just as much as HP.

this car is making me a fan of hyundai and its not even out yet. fantastic job guys, keep up the good work.]]>Mar 19th 2008 2:03AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/Mar 18th 2008 11:31PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/Mar 18th 2008 11:39PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/Mar 19th 2008 12:43AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/Please excuse me, my pork roast is making a break for the window...]]>Mar 18th 2008 11:37PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/Mar 18th 2008 11:41PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/
But I am more interested in the convertible. I remember the CSS (Tiburon convertible) was a favorite concept of mine.]]>Mar 18th 2008 11:49PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/Mar 19th 2008 12:00AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/Mar 19th 2008 12:15AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/
Anyone seen it in the metal?]]>Mar 19th 2008 12:55AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/Mar 19th 2008 1:02AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/Mar 19th 2008 1:19AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/Mar 19th 2008 1:04AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/
I think as energy becomes more expensive, we will start to pay for less weight, not more power and bigger...which is the way things should really be. Take any decent car today...and reduce its weight by 10% (300-400 pounds), it would be faster, handle better, and more fun.

Seriously, they could do some seriously cool stuff with this car.]]>Mar 19th 2008 1:18AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/
the marketing exec needs to be fired for this move. if someone decides to buy the genesis sedan then sees someone driving a RICED-out genesis coupe, you better believe the guy is gonna buy out his lease or sell his V8 genesis.

both cars are fine, jut rename the genesis coupe and take a lesson on branding.]]>Mar 19th 2008 1:26AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/
however, if hyundai pulls it off, it will just make things better for them. its sure risky, but the best of luck to them.]]>Mar 19th 2008 2:56PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/hyundai-planning-lightweight-genesis-coupe-targa-model-to-follo/

but don't get me wrong, i think both cars look great, but from a business perspective, they'll be cannibalizing their new line by renaming this one genesis COUPE]]>Mar 19th 2008 3:28AM
