2010 Genesis Coupe pics

Jalopnik has the scoop on Hyundai's Genesis coupe just prior to the NY auto show: http://jalopnik.com/368372/2010-hyun...d-unofficially

Looks like the Tiburon got a healthy heaping of G35 thrown in.

Doesn't look all that bad. Just doesn't look complete and refined.

I'd rock it.

Its a mix between alot of cars.. Looks like a G35 rear, lexus from the side and curves, and the front end hmm maybe a little altima.

I'll have to admit i kind of like it, with a different bumper/grill, de-badged, in black with tint and black rims, it has potential like any car.

This is what it was before:





And this is what it is now:


The concept looked so hot. The production model ehh I'm not too pleased about. Hyundai screwed up once again.

I think the front fails. Rest is pretty good.
The problem aspect is the mandrill like nose extension and the wimpy grill.
I did a quick chop (attached) with a more aggressive grill. It's still bleh, but I think it's a bit of an improvement.

Overall I think it's pretty slick, I especially like the nice clean interior. Now if they could just shoehorn the sedan's V8 into it...hehe Hyundai's been making some great strides over the last 5 years or so.

thanks for sharing.

it looks a bit lacking pizzaz and uniqueness, imo. not bad tho for a hyundai. they've come a long way since the excel.

Hyundai gets it.

This is a cheep RWD coupe that is not a mustang. It also looks OK and has a lot of after market potential.

It does not have to look perfect, after all dodge sold many SRT4's and they looked much worse than this.

Too bad we will have to sit through the Genesis vs RX8 threads.

The headlights on the front end makes it look chinky.

Concept looked great.. this um.. looks like a Elentra had lypo and extensive plastic surgery but you can still tell it looks like crap. The guts may be awsome and overall a great deal but oi.. looks like something my mother might consider to be honest.

Man, how come I envision this to be a high schooler's dream car? Now every teenager is going to be able to afford a new decently high powered rwd car and think he's "t3h dorifto king!"

Doubt it. Remember what Han said in Tokyo Drift? "What you think I'm gonna let you roll in a Hyundai?"

The Fast and the Furious is like the Ten Commandments to high schoolers and ricers alike.

"Thou shall not roll in a Hyundai!"
