Default HKS Hyundai Genesis coupe!

Some shots I kinda rushed through at HKS before the car went back to Hyundai. There was only a 1 day window for shooting and we found out last minute so I did what I could. Note- all carbon in the engine bay is dry carbon.

I4, it uses a Mitsubishi 4B11 (same engine in Evo X) and a 6 speed transmission.

I would seriously consider owning one of these after seeing how nice they are when modded. I love Hondas, but they offer nothing even close to this except the S2K and it is over 30K dollars....

Great pictures! I am very excited to have this car released over here. I was excited to see that HKS car at SEMA too. It looks even better in person. I can't wait to see what this car (generally speaking) can turn out in terms of HP numbers. With companies like HKS already on board, I'm sure we wont have to wait long for some very impressive examples to show their face. There is already talk of an American company building a V6 model with a supercharger. They are running 10psi and getting just about 400whp! Apparently the V6 loves boost too.

There are some great examples of modified ones in this thread over at s2ki:

Lots of information about the car can be found in the sticky threads here:
http://www.gencoupe.com/general-discussion/

Rarrior23: The Genesis Coupe in all versions come as a FR setup. 6-speed manual standard in all versions with a 5-speed auto available in some trims. Starting price is estimated for the basic model I4 to be under 20K.

Specs are nice and that all black one looks good.

Mad at Toyota for stopping the FR car that was supposed to be out in 2010. I guess I'll stick with my Prelude and AE86...maybe just add an s2000 in 2010

Not a bad idea. I think that might have helped a lot actually... especially if they bring over that little hatchback job that's rumored to be on the way sometime later this year or something like that.

It's an HKS front mount with Mobis printed on it.

Not that I'm aware of but since it's a "2010" model I would presume this fall most likely.
