Is it worth getting '10 Hyundai Genesis 2.0T Track ?

Hey Folks, I found 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0t Track with 6 speed manual at Hyundai. They are selling it so cheap for $12,994 with 55 thousand miles on it. Is it worth getting this car ?

No. They are slower than an stock LSJ and the first gens don't respond well to mods

Dang, That's sucks. It's a nice car though, too bad that it don't respond to mods since they do have whole buncha mods. I don't understand...

The genesis just suck period.
Sorry. They missed the mark not dropping the V8 into one of the coupes. Every other flavor leaves a lot to be desired in the performance department.

Anyone who talks about the Genesis to me gets the same story from me. A few years ago a brand new Genesis off the sales floor pulled in front of me and gunned it. I had a fully bolted, untuned 2.2L. I kept up almost, until his engine blew up and his coolant and oil were all over my windshield.


No, it isn't worth it.

Ok, That's not worth it. I did some research about this car, this car have manual transmission issues that cannot be solved. Korean people redesign transmission and it still does the same thing! I am walking away from this dummie Korean engineering flaws. Sounds like piece of CRAP!

Am I the only one who thinks all new Hyundais don't look nice? Everyone seems to think they're nice but I think they look like over designed messes. Kia pulled off redesigning their lineup much better although I would never consider either.

They may be nice but they are too dang expensive to mod and it still doesn't help them beat well known cars! Only they can beat is Subaru BRZ stock.

The new 3.8 puts out damn near 350 hp so not bad at all IMHO but the 2.0T is a joke.

Meh. Looks bloated and cheap with its fake scoops all over it.
Plus, even with that power, the specs have it as fast as a bone stock LNF.
And honestly, these cars are not all that comfy inside nor do they the amenities inside that other cars in this category do. They have one of the shittiest clutches and worst tach lag I have experienced.
