2011 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 R-Spec price range: $26,750.00
- Reviewed by: Antuan Goodwin
- Reviewed on: 05/26/2011
The good: The 2011 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 R-Spec packs gobs of performance into a very inexpensive package. Even at this lowest tech level, the Genesis Coupe still features a very good voice-activated Bluetooth hands-free system with audio streaming and a standard USB connection that can be easily upgraded to support iOS devices.
The bad: The six-speed manual transmission is a bit rough around the edges.
The bottom line: Though it's a harsh ride at times, the Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 R-Spec delivers on the promise of being a low-cost track car for public roads while still providing the creature comforts that we think matter most.

almost perfect car for an entry level tuner as my self
by trippinballs on July 5, 2011
Pros: pros excellent rear wheel acceleration, turning, braking, looks amazing from my perspective mpg is very good i got my 3.8 r spec to 27.1 on interstate
Cons: worst thing about this car is the transmission very very very crunchy!!! no matter how long you drive it you will always find your self grindind gears atleast a couple times during a drive and also as the video says sometimes when you drop a gear the powe
Summary: great performance, great looks, terrible transmission... also i would like to add to all other potiental hyundai buyers i purchased my car for $25,400 at a Louisiana dealership, however ...
Summary: great performance, great looks, terrible transmission... also i would like to add to all other potiental hyundai buyers i purchased my car for $25,400 at a Louisiana dealership, however i did track one down in texas for $24,000 flat with taxes and registration fees. didnt get it becasue it was yellow and i figured the trip alone would cost close to the difference i would be paying for the red one i got. so for anybody interested in this car defantley try texas because of their great deals that other states cant offer becasue only texas and one other state has the $1000 CASH BACK rebate they can tie in with your deal....... best dealership to try would be red mecombds hyundai in san antonio texas i talked to almost every one in texas and none would buydge off around $26 etc.

Summary: Its a fantastic car to drive. The engine note on this thing is a master piece. In my opinion, it has the best engine sound for a stock V6 engine in the business. That alone would want me to get the car.
Its looks great on the road. Especially in Interlagos Yellow. The car definitely turns head because there are very little of them on the road. It's not like the Mustang or the Camaro where you see plenty of them on the road.
But when you see a Genesis Coupe drive past you, you cant help but notice it. It definitely has presence on the road.
If your looking for a sports car that is affordable (and can handle a RWD car), this is your car.2 out of 2 users found this user opinion helpful.

well put together, great warranty, lot of car for the $
by ivancito_6891 on August 21, 2011
Pros: great car, great response to acceleration and feels light around corners. track package gives a lot of options, leather seats, sat nav, etc. great quality in the inside. love the sound of the engine and how it responds. even at 70mph still gives me 27mph(
Cons: lil bumpy, lil space in the back, but hey, this is a sport coupe, what do u expect. clutch is somehow soft but pushi and bumps the car when shifting, takes a while to get used to it but if u drived stick before it doesnt take that long.
Summary: overall for the price and options, it is a LOT of car for the money. and being a sport coupe, of course the ride is not the greatest but if ...
Summary: overall for the price and options, it is a LOT of car for the money. and being a sport coupe, of course the ride is not the greatest but if you want a better ride feel? dont buy a sport coupe, they are all bumpy on roads.

Great value, engaging ride, decent performance
by CNET07232011 on August 7, 2011
Pros: Sure, it doesn't top the coupe sport car class in terms of 0-60 times. And yeah, it doesn't win drag races 100% of the time. But c'mon, people. Hyundai designed this car toward those of us who like fun to ride cars for less. I've estimated that this puppy
Cons: No all-wheel drive option--yet, though I hear it's coming with the sedan version for 2012. Whether that will mean we'll see the same with the coupe is to be seen.
