In the future when I build a week end track car I would consider a Genesis as a RWD platform option. I want something light, cheap, and something that can take massive abuse.

I didn't like it at first then it grew on me. The more I see of them the less I like them... It may have something to do with demographic that is buying them though (kids); I suppose that comes with the territory, price wise.

You'd be surprised. Over on the national Gen Coupe forums, majority of the members are in the upper 20's to 30's. Bunch of guys in the 40's-50's as well.

I purchased a certified used 2010 Gen Coupe 3.8 Track last week. Looking forward to doing some mods to the engine.

Just build a 3.8 R-spec for 30K on the Hyundai website! I would say it's a pretty good buy!
