Although being a genesis owner i guess im biased but i really think its a step in the right direction in terms of blending sophistication and style with a more sporty and aggressive look.

interior is a nice subtle upgrade...
but i hope m&s or luxon develops a descent aftermarket replacement grill for that front
oh, and those new wheels dont look too appealing either.. i prefer the older gt/track 19's

the only thing that bothers me with the front end is the big plastic bar going from one side to the other

Really disliking those three gauges on the center console, looks so tacky and cheap.
I'm a little meh about the front end, but the fake hood scoops have got go.
Loving the new tail lights though.

The gear box is lifted from their Genesis sedan.
It looks like they are upping the game to counter the Toyota/Subaru combo (with better specs / interior).. I like the old face / grill better.. (a lot distinctive from the rest of the Hyundai range).. With the Toyota / Subaru be in the 30k range, I think in terms of stock form.. this will beat them handily wise (not emotional / brand wise I suppose).
Problems with the Toyota / Subaru's hoods being too low for FI.. seems the Genesis coupe has less  design issues. Quote:

^The two cars are in different classes, you can't compare them that way. I wish they were in the same class though. Fuck Toyota/Subaru for putting a piece of junk engine in it.

i still think the current one is quite plastic in the inside.... this one seems to be also the case...

Interior's not bad though

I love the interior. It's such a huge upgrade from the previous models. The speed boost is nice too, 2L engine, 274hp. That's impressive. 60 more hp then before. The exterior is really hit or miss. I can't wait to see it in real life.

im defently going to buy one of these. Hoping that the price range is in the same range has the current genesis. With the money youd save trying to make up that extra 70 hp from the current genesis buy a new front end haha.
