i see it and i love to disagree with chris, the souped up camry driver.
he's totally wrong on the rx-7, though.

Re: The market is BEGGING.... - BLINGMW - 11-01-2011

haha, ok, at a distance, from that angle, yes, my dad would think they're the same car. :lol: This would be the judged the "same" too

He wouldn't notice that the front flares on the BRZ are ABOVE the hoodline, while the RX8s are below and the headlight is part of them. He wouldn't notice the 3rd car is a FWD rental piece of shit with hateful 4spd automatic transmission.

I'd say there are more similarities in the (fake?) brake duct openings with integrated driving light, even though that light is completely different. And they both have a plastic splitter that isn't flat. :dunno:

Ok I'll stop. The RX8 looks more like the BRZ than any other car I could think of. Kind of inherent unless they put some friggen kidneys on it

or flatten it out and put a grill on it like a mustang or camaro.

I have nothing of substance to add, but it seems like these help strengthen my argument so I'm including a few.

:?: :?: :dunno: :dunno:

[quote="BLINGMW"]I very well could have missed something, I haven't read through all the links. But is there any promise that this car, any variant of it, would even be brought to the states? Or is that just a safe assumption that comes from them showing it at US trade shows? :dunno: quote]

You shut your whore mouth.

Re: The market is BEGGING.... - Evan - 11-04-2011

it doesnt really fit here as its a big bloated G35 coupe copy, but at least it looks (a little) better now. still way too busy in the front end though

Re: The market is BEGGING.... - G.Irish - 11-04-2011

Yeah they're trying to make it more muscular but it's almost a little gawdy to me. Kind of has some GTR elements in the front grill there.

I don't understand why Hyundai calls it a Genesis Coupe. It is a very different car from the Genesis Sedan, why give them the same name? Maybe they did that so they can hide their sales numbers.

Re: The market is BEGGING.... - Goodspeed - 11-04-2011

I'm sorry, thats just horrific.

Re: The market is BEGGING.... - Mike - 11-04-2011

i think it looks worse.

Re: The market is BEGGING.... - CaptainHenreh - 11-04-2011

I like it!

Re: The market is BEGGING.... - BLINGMW - 11-04-2011

I see what they modeled the front end after

I think it looks better, but it can't make it's mind up of it wants to copy Merc or Audi.

luxury line. 3 series/ c class coupe and sedan have the same name. (although audi doesnt and bmw may turn the 3 coupe into a 4)

Yeah but the Genesis Coupe doesn't look at all like a 2-door Genesis Sedan. In the case of C-Class, G37, and 3-series it's very clear that the coupe and sedan are the same car and appeals to basically the same customer.

Re: The market is BEGGING.... - Steve85 - 11-04-2011

maybe it's their way to align their rwd platforms

it borders on too much, i prefer cleaner

Re: The market is BEGGING.... - .RJ - 11-04-2011

I like it - what kind of engine is that car getting now? Will it get the V8 from their high roller sedan?

Supposedly the 3.8L V6 that is in the genesis sedan that makes 333 hp.

Re: The market is BEGGING.... - .RJ - 11-04-2011

Well thats pretty interesting. Might have to drive that and the Toyotabaru thing.

Re: The market is BEGGING.... - CaptainHenreh - 11-05-2011

Well, that picture turned out to be fake anyway. *le sigh*.
