I wish this guy could give a demo like that on every car ive ever bought, Wouldve saved me thousands. Great demo, Covered every single inch of this car. I want this car !!!
Because of watching your videos turning into a hobby for me, I suddenly started loving Hyundai and Nissan. Also because of you I started appreciating Fords more which I thought was a car you can't expect to last long. But now...
your car is better now i know i have to get the grand tourin :) i was going to get the r-spec but now i don't want it ur videos are awsome man i've been following ur videos since u first got ur genesis coupe :)
I test drove a 2011 Genesis Coupe 3.8 Track edition today. Omg what a drive, I might settle for the R-Spec though, cheaper and lighter. Going to the dealership right now to talk about pricing. Thanks for your 2010 Touring videos, they're what made me decide to take a look at this car.
@Travide I also have a Hyundai, it is almost 5 years, my sister has also a Hyundai and it is 3 years now, and a friend of mine has also a Hyundai, like 6 years now, and we have had no problem at all with them....So I dont know if you dont know how to take care of a car or what....but Hyundai is making really good cars. Those "cheap made cars" are the same cars that are winning all the awards on quality and safety, plus the recognitions on fuel efficient and good performance engines, WORLDWIDE!
Nice episode. One nice thing about watching your segment's is that your always very consistent in your presentations and camera work. I like how you have added the HP and Torque crawler across the bottom, I think you should go ahead and go a bit further and also include the MPG estimates,
Hahaha We No Speak Americano! Love that track, and this video. It's nice to have someone knowledgeable about these cars to explain the differences between different models :)
Yes, "Dual exhaust outlets", but not a true dual, like my ol' 300zx. That car was a blast, but had a child and out grew sports cars. Now I can drive over most anything at speed in my FJ Cruiser, like pot holes, train tracks, and squirrels. :D Though I do miss slidin' the rear, and lightin' up the roadways at 100+ MPH...
wow this the perfect genesis for me! :) everything manual just how I like it, no nav, no smart key, everything with a lever! and sweet stock exhaust!! Most sports cars have to go aftermarket to get that deep sound. now factory black rims and spoiler and im sold!
the back seat looks awesome, but is there a way to move the driver seat for the passengers to get in and then click back into place? it must not be too fun for the driver to have to set the seat to the right place again everytime someone sits in the back, especially if they have kids.
I have watched a few of your reviews and they are pretty good. I only noticed one little mistake in your terminology of calling the monochrome LCD a heads up display which it is not. Most people refer to it as an infotainment display or center stack display. Could be confusing for people thinking this thing has a heads up display reflecting off the windshield.
nice little car, its worth the money in many aspects. cost saving features, but atleast you get what counts. . . 300hp, rwd, manual trans, bolstered seats, and brembo brakes.
I own this model in white color. Absolutely love the performance. Awesome exhaust notes. He should have brought the rpm all the way to 6k :) The transmission is a bit clunky though. Note how it went "clunk", when he shifted into 2nd (11:01). Many say change transmission fluid to MT-90 and it improves a lot. I'll do mine and will see.
Consumer Reports has issues with reliability for the Genesis coupe, rating it less than average. Have you had any issues with this year '11, or'10? Very impressive looking car, but I still have doubts with Hyundai.
@jov1c1c they have different trims for Genesis coupe.. 3.8 starts from $26,750 without including tax.. since you only 19 years old can you handle monthly payments and insurance? You can also get Speed3, GTI, Civic SI for less $ and still fun to drive cars..
i'm curious, why does the r-spec seem to lack the practical features that a base would but costs more than a base? in other words, what is an r-spec? can someone please explain to me the distinctions please? lol thanks
@yellowcow13 oh yeah, but you know... there is something off sounding about the new Mustangs 5.0L V8... it just doesn't sound right for me, anyone else feel that way?
@MrWolf2212 because I'm not ready to buy this car just yet, I'm only 19 and will be finishing school this April. In which I'll need a car for my job after. So I don't want to just walk into the dealership to see if I could fir in the car or not. If I'm going, I'm going to either check it our or actually buy the vehicle.
Had to chose between my 2011 stang and one of these, took the ford because these were a little too flamboyant for my taste. Still a pretty nice car though.
Genesis coupe is truly an underrated car, i have a 2013 2.0t and not a single day goes by where i dont look back at it after parking it in my driveway
+TVinmyEye yea, just a little bit more before I can afford it, but definitely awsome car.
TVinmyEye bro I need it my fecbebooki is benard creed
TVinmyEye I need the number
Sane with me......miss that car every day
I appreciate the person who filmed this. It gives you the chance of seeing the car entirely.
I love the car. All the features are terrific.
I wish this guy could give a demo like that on every car ive ever bought, Wouldve saved me thousands. Great demo, Covered every single inch of this car. I want this car !!!
these vids make me love my ride more and more each day!!!! Good job!
Your Koreans love their 2011 Hyundai GENESIS Coupe 3.8 R-Spec and you betcha!
Saw one of these in person. If it weren't for the logo I would've never known it was a Hyundai car. They've amped up their game.

Amazing that a Hyundai can sound this wickedly sweet.

why am i in love with this car ^_^
Amazing, my favourite Hyundai!
congrats for you're 1000th video upload!
Great video as always Kyle! What a great car!

Thanks!... I think you've helped me realize that my first car after summer.. is going to be a Genesis Coupe.
XD

I REALLY want this car. This would be a nice replacement car for the spring/summer/early Fall months...
the Hyundai Genesis comes finally in the Netherlands next year love this car
I I lived there, I would come buy one from you, just form making the video. Great stuff man!
thats a very nice car. love all the features it has.
Thats a sharp looking car. If I didn't live on a punishing dirt road I'd definitely go check it out at the local dealership.
i just think of my neighbor's Hyundai Pony from when i was in pre-school in the early-'90s and when you compare it to this, it's comical.

As always luv ur vid... ^^
keep up the good work man ..
wow this the perfect genesis for me! :) everything manual just how I like it, no nav, no smart key, everything with a lever!
and sweet stock exhaust!! Most sports cars have to go aftermarket to get that deep sound.
now factory black rims and spoiler and im sold!
Dude awesome review! I am going to get this car in Feb. 2011 :D
proud to be korean. hyundai is stepping up there game! WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT, TOYOTA!
For the price of this car you get a lot. Im not easily impressed with cars but when I got to drive this first hand i was like WOW!
It is amazing that u can get XM satellite radio on this trim and not a lot of chrome just gives car buyers a bang for their money
Just bought a 2011 Black 3.8 R-Spec M/T this week! Crazy..
If i lived out there i would defiantly come buy a car from you! thanks for the great video!
This car should be a star in FAST and FURIOUS!
the back seat looks awesome, but is there a way to move the driver seat for the passengers to get in and then click back into place? it must not be too fun for the driver to have to set the seat to the right place again everytime someone sits in the back, especially if they have kids.
nice review once again
I really like the red color added to the interior. I still like the luxury trim levels better , but a nice car, looks good im black too.

Is it just me or are Hyundai's becoming faster and better then most american cars now? 10 years ago, No one would have called that, for sure.
nice little car, its worth the money in many aspects. cost saving features, but atleast you get what counts. . . 300hp, rwd, manual trans, bolstered seats, and brembo brakes.
Hey Kyle...what do you think about driving these cars in the snow in winter with a good set of winter tires? that is a real big question
i saw there wasnt a switch on the right side of the steering wheel for cruse control....so it doesnt have it?
Driving the same genesis as 2010
@00Hellz00 track has the slightly bigger wheels in the back for better handling, sunroof, seat warmers, navigation, possible spoiler
To really match the interior the red pulsating speakers like some of the Kias have would have been cool
who was the third person that was videotaping you test driving the Genesis Coupe? I know the guy in the passenger seat must be the dealer
How much driving time did you have with the MT, You mentioned it felt solid in the video. Can you elaborate on that?
What brand of watch are you wearing? It looks good!
Kyle how is this manual transmission compared to the Mustang Mach 1 transmission? You drove this one much smoother :)
Can you please do a full test drive!
Why is the engine noise so extremely loud? I noticed it first setting next to one at a light.
Kyle why didnt you get your Genesis at Bob Mayberry? Also, are you bummed on some of the improvements that the 2011 has that your 2010 doesnt?
looks awesome from the outside. very impressive for a hyundai
the 2008-present Hyundai Genesis Coupe is assembled in
Ulsan, South Korea
love those wheels!
So if the R-Spec is for performance then what is the Track model geared towards
such a nice looking car!
have you seen the Genesis Coupe with the 5.0 liter V8 engine, i think it was in the SEMA auto show?
Awesome looking car
Can you answer this question for me? Can the R-Spec models come with "Push to Start"???
awesome! I was kicking myself for not waiting for the r-spec but I like my leather interior in the base model 3.8 better :P
Which one is better the Grand Touring or R-Spec?
I love the Genesis coupe and I am all about the R-spec except..... Fog lamps but no CC? Double U Tee Eff?
Whats the difference between the R-Spec and the Track Pack?
Is the R spec the only one that comes with the traction control botton ?
hey is this car still for sale ??? how much ??
I own this model in white color. Absolutely love the performance. Awesome exhaust notes. He should have brought the rpm all the way to 6k :) The transmission is a bit clunky though. Note how it went "clunk", when he shifted into 2nd (11:01). Many say change transmission fluid to MT-90 and it improves a lot. I'll do mine and will see.
This would make a great first car .
is the automatic available with a key instead of the push to start? i like old school :)
Do you regret not waiting a few months for the 2011 version? :S
kyle just wondering if the engine thats in the grandeur (or azera) is the same 3.8??
does any1 no if the trans is still clunky in the 2011 compared to the 2010's M/T?
@JohnPaulLira559 what do u mean? the 2011 dont come with moonroof? whats the difference 2010 &2011??
reverse is to the left and up?
Consumer Reports has issues with reliability for the Genesis coupe, rating it less than average. Have you had any issues with this year '11, or'10? Very impressive looking car, but I still have doubts with Hyundai.
Does removing the brushed metal, and automatic headlights really save THAT much weight, I would think it's negligible.
@jov1c1c they have different trims for Genesis coupe.. 3.8 starts from $26,750 without including tax.. since you only 19 years old can you handle monthly payments and insurance? You can also get Speed3, GTI, Civic SI for less $ and still fun to drive cars..
so does that one have more horse power thenus?
should I get this or the 2011 camaro 1lt?
i'm curious, why does the r-spec seem to lack the practical features that a base would but costs more than a base? in other words, what is an r-spec? can someone please explain to me the distinctions please? lol thanks
@HawK271080 It cannot have shift behind the wheel, because it is MANUAL....Shift paddles are for Shiftronic tranny.
How is that one different from yours?
does it have a navigation system?
@TempleSquareFM i don't know. it's over 1200 more than this plus the automatic doesn't have paddle shifters and the sound of the engine isn't as good
@peachysweetness222 Thank you for that message. I appreciate it :)
can u get the r spec in canada? cause in the hyundai website u can only the 3.8 gt.
@metaljar02 They do, it's just the r-spec and base model 2.0t that doesn't come with one.
Can you check out the Hyundai Sonata next?
Good job with the video
doing an test drive video of one of these tomorrow the one iim loking at test driving is lime green and its 5 speed 2.0L Turbo
@yellowcow13
oh yeah, but you know... there is something off sounding about the new Mustangs 5.0L V8... it just doesn't sound right for me, anyone else feel that way?
@snoopyalien24 thats okay because the new model has a new front fascia.
In EVERY one of your videos, I look forward to when you pop the hood and display the hp/torque specs 4:13
@MrWolf2212 because I'm not ready to buy this car just yet, I'm only 19 and will be finishing school this April. In which I'll need a car for my job after. So I don't want to just walk into the dealership to see if I could fir in the car or not. If I'm going, I'm going to either check it our or actually buy the vehicle.
Had to chose between my 2011 stang and one of these, took the ford because these were a little too flamboyant for my taste. Still a pretty nice car though.
Can u do a comparison between the r-spec and track.
@saabkyle04 do you like it better than your genesis?
Can you do one review for the 2.0T R-Spec ? :D
Heyy i really like the interior blue color !
what does r-spec mean? all genesis rspec?
