  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Likewise, the Genesis' chassis is responsive like nothing else from Korea. When I drove the Genesis sedan I felt that the platform had some potential but was hindered by soft dampers and too much weight. The coupe feels like the sedan, only perfected. Both are predictable and can be pushed toward slight oversteer, but the coupe ditches any signs of Lexus-fighting softness. It's what we hoped for from Hyundai from the beginning, only better than highest expectations. The balance of track-ready agility and on-road comfort makes Infiniti's harsh G37 seem less appealing and puts the Genesis right up in the BMW 3-series' blind spot. And did I mention the Track model's standard limited-slip? Yes, the 335i should certainly be paying attention.
