The Genesis Sedan came out last fall. It's a v6, or v8 RWD sedan.

I thought the Genesis already came out and it turned out to be a v6 fwd?

I believe the current ones have a v8 option and are RWD, they are trying to be competition for the 7 series. They are also 4 door.
EDIT: Kevin beat me to it.

Vehicle Engine Curb Weight (pounds) Length (inches)
Genesis sedan 3.8-liter V6 3748 195.9
Genesis sedan 4.6-liter V8 4012 195.9
Genesis Coupe 2.0-liter turbo 3303 182.3
Genesis Coupe 3.8-liter V6 3402 182.3

Both Genesis Coupe and sedan are rich in ultra-high-strength steel, leading to world-class body rigidity. The Genesis sedan is 10-12 percent stiffer in torsion than Lexus and Mercedes-Benz competitors, yet it is lighter than these benchmark sedans, and offers more interior room. At just 3,303 pounds, the Genesis Coupe 2.0T is hundreds of pounds lighter than all of its IRS-equipped rear-wheel-drive competitors, with body-bending rigidity 24 percent higher than BMW E46 M3.

Vehicle Length Curb Weight (lbs.) Horsepower Power-to-weight ratio
Genesis Coupe 3.8 182.3 3402 310 (est.) 11.0 (v6)
BMW 335i 181.1 3571 300 11.9
Infiniti G37 183.1 3616 330 11.0
Camaro LS 190.4 3780 300 (est.) 12.6
Challenger 197.7 3819 250 15.3

Wow, heavy little piggies. I figured it would be a lot lighter than that, like sub-3000.

Though the flywheel/clutch on the 6 speed will definitely be a weak spot due to the 2pc. flywheel.

Alot of stock and even aftermarket flywheels are 2 piece.
