BADASS of New England
An automobile club for the enthusiast who enjoys the last of the big GM cars. The rear wheel drive B and D bodys. Chevrolet Impala SS, Caprice, 9C1, Buick Roadmaster, Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser, Cadillac Fleetwood
Good for them advertising the superbowl, really got me to notice them more than ever... If they put the 429hp 5.0 in the coupe (have they?) it could be a VERY fun car. It even looks muscular too, if i had the dough I would grab one.

I will stick with American steel. I will take a Camaro over that all day long.

My friend used to work for them when he was at school in RI, they've definitely come a long way since the Excel for sure. They make new Toyotas look like pieces of crap now.
That new Kia sedan is pretty cool looking as well.

Everyone knows a Camaro is fast, but it is a Me-Too car. The Genesis just looks like a badass little economy car, but RWD and big motor under the hood, I love me a sleeper.
It is probably the only non-American car I would consider right now.

New camaro is ok, but i'm torn, its to plasticy, and just doesn't look right, I mean it looks great in Transformers (lol). This little couple is a cool little machine.
And pretty good video, thats fast. But who can afford one, the ZL1 is what $150k? Genisis is what $30k. Apples and oranges.

But you could buy three Genesis coupes for the price of a ZR1....
Or better yet, A Genesis Couple, a Blower, some Race tires, and a Tow Truck, all for less than the cost of a ZR1. Just sayin

I have to admit that it is a very nice looking car. But I would buy Camaro instead. What is the lowest proce of Camaro in US? In Poland it is about $62000.

Once again, apples and oranges. They are not even in the same class. Might as well compare a Jetta to a Mercedes. If we want to continue this, let's make the matches even.

The only thing I don't like about the Genesis is the quarter window...WHY did they do that? It looks like one of the designers got drunk at the company party and accidentally leaned against the clay model and they left it that way...

the Hyundai (r-spec) is a 306hp 6 spd 2 door little car, i honestly don't know what compair it with. Not many little 300 hp rwd cars out there.
The GTO is, like the camaro a V8 monster. How do you compare? If you want to run the 305 hp camaro against it, then I guess we would have a comparison. But the camaro is heavier, so I'm not sure how that would work out. At any rate, if you want to put a 300 v6 up against a 400 hp v8 by all means, do as you will.

The Hyundai is the jetta, and the Camaro is the Mercedes.
