I was hoping for something decent out of the box, not locked or watered down for tuning potential. Here's why:

It becomes a non factor when you have no money or time to spend on modifying and tuning your DD. Or perhaps someone would like to keep that 10 year 100,000mile power-train warranty (it's a nice thing to have right!)

Tuning was never huge where I reside: service, parts, vehicles, insurance, and gas are all very expensive compared to most of North America.

The Genesis Coupe has been a colossal flop where I reside. The 2.0T has been severely outsold by the Si, GTI, MS3 and the 3.8 has been slaughtered by the Mustang and Camaro V6 (I can't even recall the last time I have seen a 3.8 in the wild here).
