I really like the new camaro. That is a great design. We have on 09 Genesis, but the coupe version to me is not very appealing. I hate the front end.

The thought of a the G37 convertible sounds great, but after seeing a few pics of it with the top up, it just doesn't have the same smooth profile as the hardtop. The profile of the hardtop is what makes the G37 such gorgeous car (IMHO).

I like the camaro exterior look alot but the interior is just blah for me. the interior has a dinosaur and cheap retro look.

I voted 370Z and Genesis Coupe.
Maybe that Toyota/Subaru coupe should be added? I'm anticipating that as well. Although little is known about it except that's 2.0 flat-four, hacked RWD drivetrain from a Subie AWD. But I'm eager to hear if they bring a STI/GT-Four/All-Trac version.

Yes it is, but it doesn't mean some of us want to see the new IS.

If the LF A or another F model were listed, or even an updated GS there might be a little more support. Instead of expanding down market, Lexus needs to develop more performance oriented models and answer the call in the mid-size sedan market (ie. GS) where they're getting killed right now.

I'll abstain from this poll as I'm not really interested in seeing any of those cars.

I got to drive the 370Z as it was doing the 'Follow the Z' tour from Houston to Dallas. A very sweet car. Much improved interior and engine, although I miss the throaty sound of the 350Z. I vote Z.

However, as a die-hard Lexus fan, I am also waiting for the new IS250C.

Camaro b/c I actually really like how it looks and it has a great price
IS convert (350 will be available) b/c I'm curious to see in person and it adds another nice Lexus car to the lineup
Nissan 370 Z b/c I want to see if its all its cracked up to be

My #1 though is the Hyundai Genesis coupe. I love how it looks, the specs seem incredible and I'm shocked Hyundai offers this vehicle.

After visiting Hyundai and seeing the quality of the Genesis sedan, I can't wait for the coupe. If it's like the sedan, it will sell a ton. If it's roomy enough, I would buy one.

Don't hold your breath for it. I saw the Genesis coupe in LA auto show and its interior isn't near as good as the sedan. The sedan interior is down right luxurious but the coupe interior feels like a $20k-something mainstream car, which it is.
