FR-S/BRZ vs. Genesis Coupe

[ZDan]

Seriously don't understand why so many manufacturers are going to the "big gaping wide open mouth" look. They've taken two smaller openings and tried to make them look like one gigantic opening. The GC would look a ton better if it's mouthguard piece were body colored and integrated with the rest of the front bumper.

The thing I love about the GC styling is you can fix it aftermarket-wise or like you just said paint that flat black bar body colored. The rest of the car is gorgeous to me.

I don't either but there must be a reason why. Subaru, Mazda, Hyundia...etc. are going this route.

Yeah the genesis coupe is over priced.....and you don't want the base model, you want the one with the brembo brakes (R-Spec in the 2.0 or R-spec and Track in the 3.8) so you going to spend over $27k...

Some things would be very expensive for the aftermarket to fix. Like I wish the taillights of the FRS/BRZ was a different shape and look more similar to the FRS concept taillights.

I would love for you to explain how this car is so overpriced. I remember back in 2004 Nissan sold the 350Z Track for $34,000 with a 287 hp V6. Hyundai sells a 2013 GC R-Spec 2.0t for $27,500 with 274 hp and a backseat and trunk that you can actually use. Also the Z never had a longer warranty or as much standard features yet you find this car overpriced? Also the Z had 2 piston rear Brembos vs the GC's 4 piston and a more plasticky interior in contrast. The Z also has a Viscous LSD vs the GC's Torsen type LSD. You just wanted Hyundai to offer all of that at 22k and that sounds crazy for a car that isn't underpowered and comes with features.

I would love for you to show me a 2.0T,RWD,Sport packaged coupe with standard features for under 28k at a dealership right now.

Bro... you can't be serious. Should they just give them away for free?

Comparing a car from years ago again? How much power does Ferrari from 80s have? and how much did it cost?

Everything I do pisses you off man. Listen just put me on your ignore list please because you hate it so badly when I make a damn point. Deep down you always know I have a point but you hate to agree. I beg you to show me a 2.0T, RWD, Sport packaged and decent features sport coupe for under 28k. And I know you won't waste your time because you know I already got it covered. I give credit where credit is due and some will look at the 2.0T R Spec as a RWD, Sports coupe EVO with 30 less hp and a $8,000 difference. To those people that always wanted a RWD evo coupe they will see this as a better deal than anything else.

I don't hate anyone, but you degraded the Z by saying it's expensive when RWD 2 seater coupe from 2004 with that much power is supposed to be THAT expensive. How much power did the Camry V6 has in 2004? and what about now? Logic?
Z is supposed to be a impractical sport car, 2 door 2 seater RWD, and everyone accepts the fact.
I can understand that Hyundai has better warranty, and only Mitsubishi has a similar warranty, so it's a plus for them.
I don't know the reason why you're defending GC so much by degrading many other cars that it seems to be annoying to me and maybe some other people too.

Then why does their website say $22,250 for the 2012 GC and then right down from my house there is a 2012 GC for sale for $22,250?
