Lol love Wing's pic.

To the OP, then buy a Mustang or Genesis coupe then. To me the whole selling point of this car *is* that it's small. Sick and tired of cars getting big and bloated.

I love how most people back up car is a GC/Miata/Rx8/S2k. To see a Hyundai on the list shows peoples perspective of the company is changing because of one car. I still dislike all other Hyundai's except for the GC 3.8 Track.

You got to give respect to the GC since it now will be rolling with porsche 911 level power of 350 hp!

.........what....................

the GC v6 has 350hp but weighs at 3600lbs and has a 0-60 in 5.7sec

vs

the 911 carrera with 350hp but weights at 3200lbs and has a 0-60 in 4.8sec


they will not be rollin together in the same performance bracket

I know I am gonna fit fine in a FRS or BRZ...i fit fine in my 350Z roadster...and I am 6 foot 2.
except the v6 coupe will have 333 not 350bhp, which for those uninformed, is being used in the v6 sedan

Both 0-60 are false. The Genesis coupe V6 is 3,430 lbs and the current model does the deed in 5.4 seconds. The 5.7 time is a underrated time from Hyundai. The 0-60 will be in 4.8-5.0 seconds with 350 hp and the Porsche will do its time in about 4.4 seconds with 350 hp.

I already give it respect without the extra 40 hp so I know it's good.

What is this doing here? This post has nothing to do with things you are worried about.

bad joke.
