Why doesn't the genesis coupe receive the respect it deserves?

>>14592062
It wasn't very reliable or nice at all.
Yes I've driven them

>>14592062
there's a MT group test with mustang, genesis, 86, and something else.
you can see for yourself there.

contrary to autist benchracer opinions on /o/ feels are important when you buy a sports car

All the best sportscars are coming out of Korea these days

What did you do to it?
I have a manual 2010 with 112000 miles, only needed oil changes, tires, brakes its entire life, I bought it new with 98 miles on it.
Still wipes the floor with any coupe in its class

>>14592062
You forgot to mention genesis coupe is 1600kg while brz is 1250

>>14592062

Hyundai improved much faster than it's brand name and reputation. It will catch up eventually.

>1500kg+
>handles like turd
>wiper blades turn on when you launch
i wonder why

>>14592062
Price point

Isn't the new genesis coupe a 3.3 tt putting out 475hp?
Also the genesis brand name just launched

>>14592114
kek nice bait

Still lighter than an Evo x...

>>14592168
evo x weighs 1460kg though, not 1500kg+

>>14592168
see
>>14592175

Should I compare it to nismo as well?

>more hp
>less weight
>slower in a straight line
How? Is the hp of the Hyundai really that inflated? Does it have horrendous drivetrain loss?

>>14592470
Hyundai only know how to build a car off the spec sheet and even then they're still mediocre

hell, hyundai even makes V8 rwd luxury sedans meanwhile ford is doing shit with v6 and fwd

MAYBE the RS model, X are the heaviest over ton and a half.

>South Korean vs Japanese

if history has shown us anything, is that the koreans are about to be raped.

>>14592470

Gearing matters

>>14592470
Peak hp only counts for so much. The VQ37 in the 370Z pulls hard for nearly all of the rev range because awesome power/torque curve.

>>14592517
But really though, Honda/Nissan/Toyota are all daily-driver grade at this point. None of these three companies will ever make a legitimate (and affordable to the average hooligan) sportscar again.

>>14592062

source on that 0-60 and quartermile ?

>>14592529
Honda and toyota have never made an affordable legitimate sports car

86 isn't really affordable for what you get. S2000 is alright.

S2000 was expensive new
And a gutless 4 cylinder convertible isn't a legitimate sports car sorry not sorry

> ae86
econobox not a sports car

>>14592564
I also want to throw in that with the EVO being cancelled and the STI stagnating, it's hard to imagine that there is much hope for the future of Japanese sportscars.
