Tail pipe tips

I'll make a side bet with you right now that the 2012 rear end looks nothing like this picture. --- $20

 

[OldSpice]

Yes, I'll bet

 

[PSL]

I'll hold the money.

 

[Cut-Throat]

Yes, I'll bet

You're on!

 

[EF/ELP]

I'll say Cut-Throat has the upper hand as there are some pics already showing a glimpse of a modified tail light with the reverse / clear part at mid hight of the tail lamp and no longer on the top as the LS or current Gen 2010/11.

If the bet is purely on the back fender and tail pipes, then it will be very interesting to see who wins, otherwise Oldspice... better start writting the check ;-)

EF/ELP, I love a back seat driver that is afraid to put their money where their mouth is!!!
If you remember I am the one who posted this picture on the 2012 Genesis picture thread. If you are not chicken I want you for $50.00

And yes we can all see the tail lamps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
P.S. you seem to be the only one that didn't read "tail pipe tips" in the opening post.
P.S.S. I am stating Hyundai will NOT be changing any dies for body panels. The basic shape will remain the same.

EF/ELP
I quoted this for you so that you and he can't change what he said.
Without changinging the dies the body of the car will look exactly the same!

 

[EF/ELP]

Wow! Why would I change what he said?

Take it easy! it was just a comment and if anything it will help you since it gave you the idea to clarify the bet (quoting comments and everything); if you read carefuly the bet could be misinterpretated since he said "rear end" and you said tail pipes.
Now, my comment covers both and I clearly stated that if the bet is purely on the tail pipes it would be interesting to see who wins... what's wrong with that?

Only my chauffeur is allowed to call me back sit driver, sorry I am not hiring at the moment ;-)

On a related note, I think Hyundai is right on performing a moderate facelift on this car to keep up with the trend before doing a major redesign, however I would prefer the addition of the KDM air suspension feature (sport switch) and keeping the ZF instead of the so commented 8 gear transmission.

 

[Cut-Throat]

Well, we have 2 pictures of the rear end of a 2012 Genesis now.

Here is the latest.

This is the picture that Old Spice posted. We have a $20 bet on this. I'm saying it won't look like this. If the backup lights look the top picture - I Win !

Let's hope for Hyundai's sake they do not. Same for the tips.

 

[OldSpice]

Those lights are real ugly but either way I win, same rear end Exactly

Just to remind you what the bet was, I still have my wits!

Listen Dude, those tail lights are different! --- You are now trying to renege on the bet! If the tail lights are ugly, they are different! - You will lose the bet in that case.

You had your chance to make yourself clear as I did but if you are too cheap to keep you word, do not bet, especially publicly.

 

[OldSpice]

Now that looks NOTHING like it

You guys wanna have this out in the open, then hopefully you won't mind input from others.

OldSpice, if your position is that the back end needs to look so much different that it approaches anything like the rear end of a Corvette in order for Cut-Throat's "nothing like" prediction to be fulfilled, you may take pride in achieving the rank of "Grade-A Douche of Semantic Argument". I mean shame on Cut-Throat for not using more precise wording when a bet was being made, but I think it's pretty clear that the rear ends in those two pictures look *very much* different.

 

[OldSpice]

Chilly, if you had anything to say it should have been months ago as my clarification was you are another Monday morning quarter back, looking at what is and trying to find a way to weasel out of the commitment. If my position was not CLEAR I would pay my debt just to save face but obviously some have no shame.
As a matter of FACT I did post the first picture of those tail lights months ago.
Now I clearly see that 'EF/ELP' had the right idea to clarify the details, which I did.
If cut-throat doesn't want to save face and admit defeat, I don't need his $20.00
