Spawned three years ago from a truncated rear-wheel-drive sedan platform, Hyundaias first Genesis coupe was affordable and fun, and looked great drifting through commercials. But the car lacked refinement on the street, and the base turbocharged four-cylinder struggled to impress without aftermarket help. Hyundai needed a grown-up tuner car that didnat need to be tuned. With a six-speed manual transmission, the 2.0T R-Spec weighs 3418 pounds, can reach 60 mph in 5.9 seconds, and covers the quarter-mile in 14.4 seconds at 99 mph. Thatas nearly a second quicker than before in both measures of acceleration. Four-pot detractors should note that the coupeas optional 3.8-liter V-6 also gets upgraded, now with direct fuel injection helping it make a stout 348 horses and 295 pound-feet, up from 306 and 266, respectively. Compared with the still-droning 2.0T, the V-6 plays a great soundtrack. Direct injection helps add 1 mpg to both city and highway ratings, now at 18 and 27 (with the manual). We observed 18 mpg. The 3482-pound 3.8 R-Spec two-door we tested needed 5.2 seconds to hit 60 mph, 0.3 fewer than before. The quarter-mile went by in 13.8 at 104 mph, or about the same as in a 350-hp Nissan NISMO 370Z. All Genesis coupes are capped at 151 mph. The R-Specs lack some luxuries youall find in the pricier models yet include Brembo brakes, limited-slip differentials, firmer suspensions, and new 19-inch wheels with summer Bridgestones. Both coupes stop from 70 mph in 163 feet. With slightly less weight over the front wheels, the 2.0T holds 0.91 g around the skidpad versus the V-6 modelas 0.90. Everything you want. Nothing you don't! Everything we do is driven by you.
