First undisguised shots of Hyundai Genesis Coupe!

From a “friend” of newtiburon.com member Anthony718 comes undisguised pics of the highly anticipated Hyundai Genesis Coupe. Posing next to a silver Ford Mustang GT, the Hyundai Coupe makes it difficult for us to understand how this is the same company responsible for the designs of the Sonata and Elantra sedans. Anthony718 says the pics were taken at a market research event in June.Anthony718 claims the base model will come with a 2.0-liter turbo churning out 215 horsepower and starting at $19,900 while a 3.8-liter V-6 with 300 horsepower will begin at $25,900, before dealer markups. No mention was made of the possible V-8 option, which may be introduced at a later date.
Features on the higher-end models will reportedly include iPod integration in the center console, Bluetooth, a sunroof, and a limited slip with Brembo brake upgrades possibly in the pipeline.
Despite a slightly confused set of character lines, the Hyundai Coupe, set to debut at next week’s Los Angeles Auto Show, looks like a solid entry in the RWD sports coupe segment, and we eagerly await a chance to look it over and test it out.
