It fits! a split folding seat would have been nice, but this works.

so far so good, I wish it had a rear wiper, but it clears its self off pretty good at speed. I've only found one problem so far, 2 times now, the front wipers have stopped before coming to their normal resting spot.

Going to start modding soon, picked up a boost gauge already, gonna need a boost controller, going to make an open air filter pod, and Rodan is fiending to build a dual 3" exhaust and hardpipes with a bov.

oh and rims.... rims are a must. any suggestions? I've always wanted to run Work Emotion CR kais. No idea on color for rims yet either. gold would look good but it's played out. White would look alright but wheel choices are limited. gunmetal or bronze will probably end up on there in the end.

[Blinky]

Nice pics. Any driving impressions?

wheels?

IMO bronze (and gold) are beyond cliched. Get black wheels for the thug look.

[hk20000]

Matte black is where it's at.

[turbomelon]

how bout some anthracite/black enkei NT03+M wheels.

[77civic1200]

Nice! congrats on the new car, when did you pick it up? I am pretty sure I saw it sitting out front of the dealership a couple weeks ago (a red one has replaced it now)

[Jason00S2000]

oooh the genesis looks nice :eek:
how does it perform?

[thumper]

first mod: get rid of the jim pattison sticker on the decklid!

and i'll let the hello kitty slide just this once since the car is so nice... but if you start adding her friends to your dash i won't be held responsible for what may happen next :lol

[orgasm_donor]

I am deeply saddened and disapointed. No sign whatsover of pedobear. :(

Car's looking good! Flat black, satin gunmetal or bronze would look great on that car. Also needs a lowering too. :thumbsup:

[Leung_Dog]

kenstyle bodykit?

[jing]

If you're worried about stuff that's played out, don't buy CR Kai's.

[icemiko]

white rims will get dirty really fast, I used to have white rims

[sirensong]

Still looks like a G35 wanna be to me. Nice car tho, how much do those things go for?

[hal0g0dv2]

damm nice ride

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

I rather have 335i, accord V6 and you are piece of shit

[Eastwood]

How fast is it. I heard they're 0-60 times were only about 7 seconds? Is this true

[Acura604]

the rear looks good albeith g35ish...the sides flow nice although you can see tiburon all over it..and the front end? wtf happened to the front end?? lacks any sort of aggression and the 'H' logo kills it.

otherwise, nice car for the price.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

I rather have 335i, accord V6 and you are piece of shit

wow really? u fucking smart ass with a big mouth eh? 335i is not even in the same price range u fucking honger dumb mothefucker:rolleyes:

They sure didn't spend any time or money prettying up the engine bay...

[dustinb]

They sure didn't spend any time or money prettying up the engine bay...

Wow for real? I think it's great, because you can actually see the freaking motor. Not big ugly pieces of plastic trying to hide everything.

And for rims, Tenzo Type M Version 2, Machined front.

Off topic.

How do DC boards ride? I can't see DC having a snowboard 'without' the DC logo lol, all their boards gonna look the same.

[twitchyzero]

front end is a disappointment..perhaps if the grill & badge was removed and the car was lowered it would look more aggressive.

[FatalCloud]

i really love the rear, looks aggressive, interior looks cheapass though. congrats on the purchase.

[RE-Jo]

^^ Agree
The rear looks nice, but the front could use some work.
how about some Advan RS in black with low offset?

[hk20000]

time for Revscene "let's gang up on 1990TSI's car and rice it out" meet.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

i really love the rear, looks aggressive, interior looks cheapass though. congrats on the purchase.

i think its the same/similar material on the new lancers

quite rough feeling

[1990TSI]

Wow thanks for all the commenst guys!

Off topic.

How do DC boards ride? I can't see DC having a snowboard 'without' the DC logo lol, all their boards gonna look the same.


They ride awesome actually. I got the devun walsh HKD series and it won some awards and shit this year for best board etc. It's great for all over the mountain, It's great for the park, powder, groomers and just screwing around in general. No complaints except the initial price was a lot haha.


back to the car..

I got over the fact that it's a hyundai a while ago, I'm sure most others will soon enough when they start getting more popular over here.

The grill will eventually be changed, but to get rid of the H, but because some of the onesi've seen from Korea just look a lot better and finish off the front end. It is pretty agressive in person though, with the headlights and body lines in the hood, also that fact that it looks as wide as a super duty pickup. The grille is kinda meh though.
The jim pattison sticker will come off when I have time to do it carefully. It's like an ICBC decal, not coming off easily!

as for price, that's been discussed enough in the last thread.

Interior quality is pretty nice. It's no worse than my parents 02 RSX and better than any american car in it's price range. please see one in person and sit in one before timposting about the interior quality from pictures ;)

0-60 is good. I imagine that 7 seconds was done with traction control on. Traction control can die. it kills the fuel or something when the tires start slipping. Not the fastest way to get up to speed. Wheelspin isn't really an issue in the dry, so I keep TC off most of the time.


I want to lower it as well, but nothing available yet. and as for the foglights. I think tinting the lens yellow would be pretty win. Havn't seen it done on one of these yet and blue and yellow are lovers.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

nice keep us updated


saw some demo in coq center mall the other day


the coupe is definitely more appealing than the sedan

2.0T is a better buy tha 3.8L

just run some aftermarket NOkya 3000k bulb or run some super jdm yellow hid fogs, get hid for ur healight as well if they arent HID yet ( can get u a set if u need )

get some Advan super racing 2 if u wonna be rare, otherwise i think RZ will look hot on ur car with black chrome finish or bronze

[marc0lishuz]

Front looks like
( ^___^ )

Rear is like

[impactY]

ugly

ooo snappp hyundai is just champin' it nowadays haahha

Hmmm... change your mind much? Tell me how hyundai fails?
This is an awesome coupe.

Front end is gonna take some getting used to, but other then that I think it is great

[HyundaiGuyTrev]

I can not even believe I am saying this, but I think I want a hyundai..

[Great68]

The front license plate ruins the front end for me :(

[AsBannedAsItGets]

Still looks like a G35 wanna be to me. Nice car tho, how much do those things go for?

You mean G37?

[Dentz]

Not a fan of the front end, but the rear end looks good! Sweet pick-up!

[RabidRat]

what aftermarket shops are all those genesis owners in korea going to for mods? i'm assuming "KDM" (ie. korean domestic market :p ) online translator isn't letting me search online in korean :(

[v67gsr]

Nice car, but kinda over weight by a bit. Canthey make car which is targeted for performance a little lighter?

[dustinb]

Nice car, but kinda over weight by a bit. Canthey make car which is targeted for performance a little lighter?

I'm sure aftermarket companies will be all over that. Probably be able to get carbon fiber everything for this car in a year so...

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

screw CF, just go fiberglass, cheaper and just as light



or titanium the hell out of it lol

[Chopstick]

i heard they have a 3 second delay on the rev counter for mysterious reasons is that true?

edmunds tested it and said that for the 3.8 auto

[HyundaiGuyTrev]

there are going to be carbon fiber options available in the next couple of months if you look at the old auto show pics with the carbon fiber hood, that hoods going to be available in two months.

[dL]

Very nice! I love the new Genesis Coupe!

dL

[v67gsr]

CF hood or trunk will not cut it.

Seriously, the car is over weight by couple hundred pounds. Some other "performance" vehicles even close to the thousand mark (look at M3 and GTR). Dead weight is dead weight. Law of physic always apply.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

werd hence why i fucking hate the new GTR

1800kg = to a toyota sienna just wont cut it


hell even murci's V12 only weighs about 1600kg, and tats a fucking V12

[HyundaiGuyTrev]

when your spending the money that you are on a murci i would hope that its fairly light weight. the genesis is only 26000 for a base model.

[threezero]

i think we should all take a stab at what would be the first thing to break on this thing and at what km. The winner shall get a cookie

[thumper]

hell even murci's V12 only weighs about 1600kg, and tats a fucking V12

but then again the lambo is all carbon fiber and aluminum with a 6-digit price tag... the hyundai is probably built on the cheap with non hi-tensile steel just to keep the price down to where everyone is happy with.

[CanadaGoose]

i think we should all take a stab at what would be the first thing to break on this thing and at what km. The winner shall get a cookie

Rear tires going bald :D

[hk20000]

drop those heavy factory seats for some Seibon CF or what not I think that's 100lb off right there.

and then dump the rear seats (not like there is proper headroom in there anyways), parcel shelf.... another 80lbs at least?

and then throw on some forged alloys.Wait for HKS to release Ti exhaust for it - these components weight a ton from factory using mild steel. And that muffler is unnecessarily large.

Carbon hood/trunk maybe? but those I find are minimal in weight loss. I think they are aluminum already as it is?

Should feel feather weight after all that.

[AzNightmare]

I still don't like the font no matter how much I look at it. It's not growing on me.
I hate how the headlights just dip down on the corners, and then the grill/vent isn't wide enough.

Every other angle looks pretty good, except the front.

[ShanghaiKid]

just went to rmd automall to check the 2.0T and the v6 out...

im was so tempted... to be one of the first to own one locally, but my only problem is what "Hyundai" means in the auto industry (what will this car be/look like in a few years? will it be reliable? a worthwhile investment for a college student looking for a sporty whip?).

[1990TSI]

as or being one of the first to own locally, it don't mean shit, coming from the first to own locally ;) Don't buy it for that reason, wait for an R33 GTR for attention and being an industry pioneer. people will still think you're either "in a new hyundai" or "in a new Tiburon" and you're not going to impress people unless they're that pro snowboarder in squamish who ended up working at a shop and actually knew what the thing was when I was at the bank and couldn't beleive his eyes.

as for hyundai, I think this car and the sedan will turn shit around. add that to the 10k new accent, hyundai will be popular soon. with the americans going down any day now, hyundai should be a name for once. they're comin out with good cars and amazing warranties. the fit and finish is great and the build quality is quite amazing and the price is right. it's taken some time but I think this or next will be their year. The only real reason not to buy one is if you're a fucking richmond fob who needs a MB or BMW badge to impress friends and family.

as for the worthwhile investment, any new car is a horrible investment, and sure you could get a used wrx for way cheaper with the same resale value..... but I didn't want that. It's hard to say what the resale value will be, but I assume they'll be selling for 20k by the end of the year :( 20k for a 1 year old beat the fuck on sports coupe haha.

I'd say go for it. it gives a big fuck you to the american automakers if nothing else. that's why I got one.

[AzNightmare]

Yup, don't worry about being the first dude to own it. Who cares. It's a Hyundai.
It's not like a car lots of people will be wow-ing over. But besides that, being new owners to new cars aren't always the best thing. Let other people test it out and be guinea pigs for the errors and call backs. Buy it next year. lol

Maybe they might boost the performance like the current gen WRX. haha

[MG1]

I'm going to check them out......... thanks for the pics, OP.

It's mesmerizing. :haha:

Hyundai has actually made leaps and bounds when it comes to overall quality.
Saying it's just a 'Hyundai' is pretty damn ignorant if you ask me.
They've recently won some car of the year awards if I remember correctly.

[TigerSY]

Was at North Shore Automall checking one out the other day.. nice buy!
Good luck with it..

god that's so ignorant. yea sure the hyundai badge doesn't make girls think you're baller or make them wet their pants like a lambo or ferrari but it doesn't mean it's not nice to have such a car.

people used to think that about japanese cars in the not so long ago past.

when the first Datsun Z came over no one gave much of a crap but now to tons of people it's just jizz inducing.

i'm not saying the Genesis will accrue the same sort of reaction or cult following but it definitely isn't impossible.


don't be so narrow minded, that's a problem in our damn society.

[BabyblooLexus]

hot damn

[red_2]

lol at "jizz inducing"

[tamiya_s2000]

hyundai is not comin up anymore, it came up already
for those who haven't or wouldn't try it at all
their interior quality/comfort etc has caught up w/ japanese cars
reliability..... well their new era of cars are just too new to judge
but from where i work, i can tell u.. not much maintenance needed, just regular oil changes is sufficient to keep it problem free

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

guess even the KDM has surpass the americans car industry

[RabidRat]

dropped by the automall to take a quick look.

i was able to pick out a bunch of "little things" that stood out to me as cheap or unrefined, but none of those little flaws would've really been too far out of place in any japanese car in the same segment. if you're looking for an enthusiast's performance vehicle, the interior is fine. i'd say that anyone still saying it's cheap and crappy inside should get a reality check and go sit in a Toyota. it's the same thing.

shift throws were a little long but i liked the "snick snick" feel going into the shift gates. the only thing i couldn't stand about the drivers' interface was the clutch. if you take your foot off fast enough, it lags behind and doesn't come up as quickly as you do. it's the same kinda thing i ran into with the Mazda3 I used to drive. makes double clutching a nightmare; it'll slap your foot as you come back down.

the car is definitely a bargain for what it is. there's a lot of hype surrounding this car, but it seems deserved.

[1990TSI]

the clutch feel sucks. it's a dual mass flywheel meant for old people who care how smooth the ride is. I hear it's a $1200 american part that's non resurfacable. Hopefully they come out with a light weight flywheel/strong clutch soon and I can offset that cost by selling the stock flywheel to a woman who has bought the car and 4 months later needs a new flywheel. The heavy flywheel and stock drive by wire throttle control give it a pretty tame feeling the more I drive it.

There are a few processors that will get rid of the DBW slow response but they're about $300 right now. The clutch and flywheel would be nice to change, but I have a feeling that will mess with the waranty as well, and seeing as how the tranny sucks already after 1500km, that warranty might be good.

I should clarify, the transmission is great, I really love the feel of it, when it's warmed up. when I go to work or drive anytime the car is cold, it doesn't want to go into 1st gear at a stop sign or light. It will leave an intersection in 2nd like an F350, but it should still pop into first gear at a stop when it's -2 without grinding. Hopefully hyundai will bless me with X amount of Redline MTL installed, but I have a feeling I'll be doing it myself.

Other than that, the car has been great. every new car will have a few issues, but overall I couldn't be happier with it.

[Vulgate]

Also consider changing the tranny oil to GM Synchomesh with friction modifier.

[saiko]

How's the space inside the car? Quite comfy for a mid-sized feller? How comfortable do the people in the back seats sit?

Road noise an issue w/o the radio turned on?

Up front it's great. lots of room for pretty much every sized person. The back, not so much. the tallest I've had in there was about 5'8 and had -5 headroom. The 5'1 girl sitting in the back had a couple inches between her hair and the window. Loads of legroom, but it doesn't mean much when there's no headroom. I havn't personally sat back there yet, but I hope to soon haha.

road noise isn't bad. the interior is pretty quiet, but there is some road noise still. about as much as you may expect there to be from a sports coupe with decent tires on it. with the radio on there's nothing at all.



and this morning it was -7 going to work and it didn't want to go into 1st or 2nd :(

[saiko]

Is that on a completely cold start? Or did you warm it up a little bit?

[Lomac]

and this morning it was -7 going to work and it didn't want to go into 1st or 2nd :(

Eric, any idea what sort of gear oil they use? I'd highly suggest you get it flushed and change it with something a little more winter-friendly. Hell, I'll come up this weekend and help you do it! :D

[1990TSI]

well I just called and the guy said they use standard 75-85 gear oil so it may not be the problem. They want to see the car but they need to see it on a cold morning, which doesn't really work living in squamish and being 45 minutes away haha.

idealy I'd just like some redline MTL in there, but as he said, there may be another issue in there and they want to see it before I start screwing around with it.

also I don't want to pay for it. $12/L is pricey!

[RCubed]

Test drove the Genesis 3.8 today, it was really responsive, decent brakes, stable steering.
The powerband was narrow for a V6, it loses power when you go over 5000rpm.
The front seats were great. The rears seats are horrible, no head room at all and Im only 5'7"

[PNF]

this is just amazing.. Hyundai really has come a long way and the car looks amazing.....

Well well, looks like the the 2.0 turbo engine is a bit underrated

Are those numbers at the wheels or the motor?

and that kink is interesting, I had mine up on the hoist for the first time yesterday and was puzzled by the kink as well.

Time for a 3"!

To create enough of a power disparity between the V6 and 2.0T to justify the added cost of the V6.

Kev

More than likely. :)

WTF?! these words can't be coming from you?!

That's awesome power for 210 at the crank!

Better have some 3" when you come out to the bay. I request a ride and maybe a little dori,dori. S12 vs genesis

Jesse I presume haha.

It'll have a bunch done by canada day including a 3", and we'll have more people up there and possibly a boat, so we don't have to drink in that lakeside park haha.

[Rikaro]

The kink looks like it supposed to clear that bar at the bottom.

[the shocker]

Yes its me, i say enter the parade like you did with the skyline last year, i might with my ziptied s12 this year, haha, boat? this could be dope

[the shocker]

Ye probably but it has lots of room from the exhaust to the bar thing so you could probably do a proper exhaust

I just got mine on Saturday, the 3.8 version, and so far I am very impressed regardless of manufacture they did a great job with this car. Only time will truly tell but my first impressions are very good and they did a lot of small things to make the interior very user/driver friendly IMO

I got the Bathhurst Black and it goes in tomorrow for full tint and new 19" wheels. These are them here, I am very excited to see what they look like on it. Lowering will happen once the products are available.

^ congrats!

the 3.8 should be a nice unit to have. It's what Mitsu should have done with their own engine in their own Eclipse :lol instead of the current front drive config.

I hope you don't put those rims on before lowering it, it's gonna look real fugly man... I haven't seen a genesis coupe on the roads yet, but if i saw you with those rims on stock suspension, i'm going to be like "dayum that's fugly"

[monkeywrench]

Yeah I agree to that, wouldn't want to see a gencoupe running around with stock suspension and those rims.. It's gonna look like its floating

Well I guess that's why I don't care what people think of my car :)

There is no way I am waiting 6-8 weeks before the suspension comes in. I phone Eibach and they don't even have them to be shipped for another month or more.

[1990TSI]

at least eibach has a part number out already. so does H&R ;)

you could probably get something decent send overnight parts from Korea, but that would be more moneys than worth it probably.

[Orion]

wow everything does look good but i don't think the 2.0 have enough power....

anymore interior shots?

[maxsensation]

more pics!

[saiko]

took a few pictures as we were leaving the meet today (was in my friend's miata). It looks pretty good in person! A lot bigger in size than I imagined.

[bensta]

i was drivin beside u today on west 4th, was in my black EG6 with my buddy in his white EF infront of me, after the revscene meet. You had a girl in the passenger seat who looked passed out, pedobear instincts?!

None the less, love the genesis!! Nice pickup dude.

ah yea I remember the civics. yes the broad was passed out but she was actually a hooker, so it didn't matter. too old as well.

Was that you taking pics from the miata on west 4th? pics!
yea the car is pretty large. It's about as wide as a super duty pickup. apperently wider than a corvette too but I don't see enough corvettes to park and compare. Parking is a lot harder than my sidekick was :(

Had a high speed Genesis flyby on the 99 on my way to Squamton.

Any chance this was you??:D

[1990TSI]

Taking a 2.0T GT for a rip tomorrow. I'm kind of excited.

Come back again when you can afford an Indian car first...

front end is such a horrible design

1990TSI, did you inquire about importing stuff from Korea? Some of those pictures of Genesis coups are pretty slick.

we talking abt the 2000 tattu or the 100000 range rover

[too_slow]

Whoops.. GG I quoted the wrong person.. lol.. and yes, i was referring to the Tata

[hud 91gt]

Took one for a drive. Pretty impressed. The 4 banger is definetly not a quick car, but is still fun. I am thinking I may go with the GT package. LSD, HID's, Brembo's, Stereo, sunroof, 19's with Summer tires, better suspension. It actually makes sense to spend the extra 4 g's.

The hardest part of sharing a mailbox with the parents, it explaining what a 'pedo-bear' is and why his stickers were ordered.

I see this car almost daily, it's nice!

[tofu1413]

went to the autoshow...........


and i love it! alot actually!


time for test drive.. that 2.0T GT is quite the bargain out there >< ..... i see tons of potential in modding the 4 banger.. engine has tons of room! turbocharger.. is tiny... it could really use a snail, larger intercooler and better piping.. larger injectors and sorts.. and could push 400 something horses...... easily

this car does use the 4b11 engine right..?
