Other Choices:

Because of its price, range of engines, and performance, the 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe faces off against a variety of competitors. At the low end, shoppers looking at the Scion tC could move up to the fresh shape and rear-wheel-drive performance. Honda Accord Coupe shoppers could look to the Hyundai for sportier handling and more style, but they'd sacrifice some refinement and their addiction to the Honda name. More than the Ford Mustang or Dodge Challenger, the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro V-6 gives the Genesis Coupe a run for the money in the value category, with the least-expensive Chevy starting for about $23,000. The Genesis looks less macho next to any of the reconstituted nameplates from Detroit, and V-8s still rule when it comes to ultimate performance bragging rights. There is also the chance that G37 shoppers might consider the Genesis because the two cars are so close in power, but the Infiniti is silkier and more refined. You get what you pay for, in this case.

    The Genesis Coupe is for minimalist drivers who appreciate a gorgeous car with some serious balls, without the pretentious and snobbery of a big-name brand like Infiniti. I have nothing against the G37, but it is difficult to justify paying almost $10,000 - $15,000 more for a car that can't escape a competitor like the Genesis Coupe on a tearaway. Although the car lacks luxury features like a telescopic steering wheel (God knows how people survived before THEY were invented), it justifies its price tag completely. My 3.8 GT (basically a Canadian Coupe with a Grand Touring option package married to the Track racing suspension) is a monster that can easily keep up with its contemporaries, or beat them outright.
    Competitiveness aside, the car is deadly amounts of FUN. Although comparisons are made to the G37, you'll only notice that on the back end unless you're actively looking to discredit the car in the looks department. Here in Toronto, G37s drive by all the time and barely anyone gives it a passing glance. When my Yellow 3.8 Gen Coupe drives by, jaws drop, people point with googly eyes, guys roll down their windows at red lights and confront you at gas station fillups to congratulate you on your "sweet ride," and you definitely get the sense that Hyundai is a brand that has earned its newfound respect.
    It's a powerful sports car with a very attractive price tag. It isn't big on options. You're paying for a healthy, aggressive V6 and some serious stylin'. If that's your bag, the Gen is your car. If not, you'd best look elsewhere.
