I murdered a 4cyl turbo Genesis a while back in my regal GS. (13.9 car) I'm not sure if this kid just couldn't drive or what, I really wasn't that impressed though.

Wouldn't mind giving one of the 3.8 cars a go.

Nice! That Z28 runs pretty well. I must say I do like the new Genesis though. Nice looking cars. Good kill though!

That would be me...
If they came with an LS7 in it, I would junk the Gensis body and put it in a real car..a Vette.

I didn't realize that the Genesis was fake... it felt pretty real as we drug that Mustang the other day.

To each his own, but I judge cars based on their individual design/interior/performance/ability to mod, not based on what badge is on it.

I was hoping the ol' LT1 would win. But I thought the Genesis would catch it on the top end. Good runs.

you have to have a stick if you're trying to mod any hyundai. just picked up a genesis sedan 4.6 for the wife and just like my bro's commuter '06 sonata V6 the trans (a ZF 6spd in the genesis) is programmed to last forever there is zero performance effort in this trans tune. if the sedan snapped off shifts it would run mid 13's instead of the 13.8 @104 motor trend got out of it ('09). the sedan only runs 65% throttle in 1st gear, i'd imagine the coupe is similar. Hyundai gives that warranty and knows how to not have to pay out on it lol

An LS1 driveshaft weighs 4 lbs less than an LT1 driveshaft and it fixes the nasty vibration that alot of LT1's (including this one) have at higher speeds. How does that compare to an LT1 radiator swap?

The LT1's definitely running strong now after the tune up. He needs to cam/stall that thing after he finished the exhaust, then it'll be nasty from a dig.

i wasnt aware that there was an issue/remedy like that associated with the lt1's. but like i said before, its just my sense of humor that made me laugh.

Yeah, it's an upgrade that improves performance and driveability, so it's not like swapping lug nuts or installing a chrome oil filler cap
