I like the part in the Q&A that says:

Q: Will you have aftermarket parts and accesories available for the Genesis Coupe when it launches?

A: Those plans will be shared closer to launch, but we expect considerable aftermarket demand for performance accesories. In fact, we are studying a lower cost version for tuners.

smart people.

That lower cost version is the R-spec that will be launched around mid summer. I'm really liking where things are headed with this car, but I just hope it doesn't turn into the next Honda Civic.

Or the next SRT-4.... Bah.

We'll see when it comes out, until then we wait.

I haven't looked at this thread or one of these till now.
Now I wished I wouldn't have, but mo said it the best I would buy one, mod it till it was a pain in the ass, then I would have to find a new DD.

Beautiful car, will be nice to see these and RWD will be awesome.

Big difference here guys. I know all about this from the quest. it's a cheap, RWD turbo car with a limited slip. This is how it goes:

1. turn 17, 18, 19, or 20
2. ask moms and dad for hyundai turbo coupe
3. drive it for 3 hours and try a burnout...fail at burnout
4. try to slide the ass around a corner
5. crash into a light pole/fire hydrant/tree/what have you and total the fuck out of your new car.
6. ???
7. Profit

I meant I hope it doesn't turn out like the Civic in that everybody just throws intake and a muffler, some aftermarket tail lights, a wing and a body kit on it, and think it the fastest car in the world.
