PEOPLE, I just bought a 2012 Genesis Coupe 2.0T. Nice car, however, there is a smell of gas inside the cabin. Last night I woke up with chest pain. I googled it and found some others having the same issue with the smell of gas inside the cabin. Can you please message me if you're having the same problem.
i love buzzy engines as long as its the engine and not the exhaust when i put my foot on the peddle i want people to look, don't want people to walk along causally
@madeinph Obviously you don't like Hyundai ! I have a couple of friends who own the 3.8 Genesis Coupe and they have nothing but great things to say about the car.
And no question,,the fact that they provide owners with 5 year 100,000 km. warranty which happens to be the best in the auto business speaks volumes for the quality of their products.
Certainly they had a poor reputation initially but those days are history,,they build great cars, beautifully finished,,top value for your $.
@madeinph see its people like you is why we cant have nice things, "its still a hyundai". So what? things do change, and hyundai is much better now then before. The new 2013 genesis 2.0T has around 275HP Stock, that is amazing for a 4 cylinder turbo out of a factory. Stop talking shit about things you know nothing about.
Drove one and hated it. The clutch is just horrible. Its such a pain in the ass to drive for such a weak car. Now the 3.8 feels much better. They just need to work on there pedel feel.
@samlim0313 I'm an adult.. my mother's an adult.... my sister and her son.. both full grown.. we've all sat back there and it wasn't a problem. A tall person... NO.. their head would hit the window.. but to say an adult couldn't sit back there comfortably is WRONG.
@AutolineDetroit I'm just wondering why the same features, on this car are not the same as the one for the 2011 edition, by this I mean the Black Leather Bolster with Red Cloth Insert, and the moon roof in the same car for the R-Spec, Premium, Track, Touring, or the 2.0T., They have the features but not in the same model, it's like you get one or another.
I don't get retarded review people who gives a crap about back seats of a coupe. THERE COUPE'S MORONS IF YOU WANT ROOM IN THE BACK GET A SUV FCKN RETARDS I SWEAR. Least you can seat comfortably in the fron unlike the camaro... Which i also like btw so don't hate on me either.
Car Design=AMAZING! Door=Sounds Empty... Back seats=Crap... Remove them all and put in some Kick Ass sound system and a Big Ass NOS Bottle... Done DEAL!
they are redesinging the body in 2012 i read, and adding 33 more HP with a motor update to the V6. I think the 2.0t could use a upgrade, 210HP is a bit wimpy, the mazda speed3 has like 270 turbo
i actually like the current gen coupe body. And the interior is way nicer than camaro and mustang..which are both nice cars also.
I'm looking for my first car(15y/o), and despite my Hyundaiphob, I went and took a look at this car (w/mom). I LOVED IT, honetly it looked soo sexxy in the gray. The one I looked at was the 2.0T, gray, with premiumpkg and auto. Honestly though, I got in the back seat, and couldnt sit up straight, and I'm only 5'9. It honestly was a real deal breaker because it cant compete with any other coupe on the market, even the Eclipse I looked at was rommier.
@mcfakris634 Are you mad? The back seat of a sports coupe breaking a deal is like not buying a Lamborghini Gallardo because it cant fit your chest of drawers..
@mcfakris634 I agree it looks awesome. Since you're 15 and can hold off a year or a little more I say wait for the next generation. I co-op at a Hyundai dealership and hear a lot of complaints from the mechanics because it has just a ton of small issues people keep coming in for. My thoughts is because it's a first generation sports coupe (RWD) from Hyundai so they're not perfect yet. Hopefully they'll fix everything for second generation and get it then :)
the back seat really dont matter because its sports car
and if you're thinking about buying one u wouldn't give a damn about who sits in the back seat if its too tight back there just get the hell out of my car
John McElroy!! I like this guy alot, he knows what he's talking about and gives fair, balanced reviews. WWJ 950 in Detroit needs to get rid of Jeff Gilbert and hire McElroy.
Nice little review. I wish wwj 950 radio would get rid of Jeff Gilbert and hire John McElroy for their automotive reporter. Can't stand Jeff Gilbert." I am Jeff Gilbert for WWj Newsradio...Ninnneeeffiiifffftaaayyyyy". Don't trip over your ego Jeff...
Not a bad car at all, especially for Hyundai. I think the funny thing is a company that most people would pass off as being a "real" car...is one of the few companies that are actually making a low priced RWD vehicle with some sportiness to it.
No matter the engine, buzzy engine sound is unpleasant. That was his point. Hyundai's 2.4L isn't as buzzy. That's what I have in my Optima. Much smoother sounding. The 2.0 turbo is a Mitsubishi motor.
Wrong its a Hyundai motor developed by Hyundai, used by Mitsubishi to test it out in their cars, and then when the kinks were worked out of the finished product, Hyundai uses it.
Mitsubishi was Hyundai/KIAs Guinea Pig up until last year, when GEMA ceased to function.
With GDI this Turbo can achieve about 40 MPG, and 30 more horsepower. The Sonata, Elantra and Even Accent (hot hatch) will get this engine eventually.
it's all joint development, hyundai builds the engines. do you really think mitsubishi would choose to use a "mule" engine to replace the legendary 4g63 of the evo's with an untested engine from hyundai in the evo x?
@palebeachbum There is no engine made by Mitsubishi in the Hyundai line up. All engines in all new Hyundai models are 100% designed and made by Hyundai. Actually Mitsubishi requested assistance from Hyundai to make the engine block and some engine parts for the Evo X. Google it!.
And about if the engine is buzzy or not, well, as far as I know, when you buy a BMW Z4, you can pay to make your car "buzzy" if you like to hear the engine noise while driving. I see no problem with it on the Gen Coupe
@wtrdogg20 that is actually WRONG wtrdogg20, look up some info on companies partnering to make a better engine. Mercedes-benz has helped hyundai with their engine's especially on the equus, which you probably wouldn't know about because you don't live in Korea. ^^ just trying to correct some false information. They will try to sell the Equus in the states soon but I think that wouldn't help Hyundai in sales.
@robakelly A Korean boy talking shit about one of the most important companies in his country?, C'mon dude!!...you sound like another Hyundai hater.....One thing is help and one other thing is getting the engines from another car maker. But I have been checking info about that car there is no information about Mercedes providing help to Hyundai with that engine. Show me a proof, then we can talk. I do have documentation of Hyundai having something to do with the Evo X engine.
@wtrdogg20 Your really stupid. I'm not a Hyundai hater and you really need to get yourself educated. Don't base your opinion on my looks either you moron. I LIVE in Korea, I know these thing's because it's ON the news. Your also even MORE ignorant for calling me Korean, because that has nothing to do with my opinion. So go look it up again before you decide to make any other remark's.
@robakelly What the fuck are you talking about...you are Korean but you dont like to be called Korean??.....No, GET YOURSELF EDUCATED....you just posted a comment that doesnt make any sense......Whatever dude, you know nothing about cars, you are just a Korean boy trying to say something on internet....good for you, son!. BTW, if you are talking about GEMA, that doesnt exist anymore, Hyundai is not longer working together with other car makers as they use to do it during the GEMA time.
