fwiw, i've driven the 2011 genesis coupe V6.

i don't understand why anyone would say it doesn't handle well. in fact, it handled very well. i wanted one after driving it. and that was before it had even more power.

i've also driven the miata, which is probably more directly comparable. the miata obviously handles excellently, but i wouldn't say it's out of the genesis's league.

i didn't like the shifter that much on the genny tho, the mazda is impossible to beat in that category. it also lacked the snug feel that i tend to look for in a sports car.

anyone saying the genny doesn't drive well has probably never driven it.

i also highly doubt the frs will actually weigh 2700lbs. i'd be willing to bet that production spec frs/brz will be closer to 2800-2850, but we'll see.
