Is this the successor of the Tuscani?

Hi Laserjet,

The Genesis Coupe is not the successor of the Tuscani. It is a seperate model altogether.

What the crap, we don't even have the Genesis coupe and now they already have a facelift for it. Hyundai sg more interested in selling Sonatas and Avantes. Oops, they're called i45s and Elantras now. Like it makes any difference.

The successor of the Tuscani is Veloster, scheduled to arrive here in early 2012.

@Nightsky, you see the mindset here is about brand. A Genesis Coupe would cost more than a basic BMW. Which one do you think the masses prefer?

@grandcruiser, please do not feed silly misinformation on stuff you do not know, the base model of the coupe does not even come close to the price of an underpowered base model 1 series with 0 options. The top of the line version with a ZF auto tran and 3.8 V6 with brembo is priced just slightly under the same 1 series.

@Lammy84, the Genesis Coupe ranks higher than the i45 in the Hyundai automobile family, be it base or top model, is definitely more expensive than the i45 2.4L which is priced with the 116i (the most basic BMW). So your price judgement? :)

Btw, you expect a 3.8L V6 Genesis Coupe to price under the 116i? Are you kidding me? We are talking about the price scenario here. Dude.

@GrandCruiser , im not EXPECTING, I was in the market just last mth for the coupe(pre FL as per the article) so im v familiar with the specs and price of the models. I ended up buying a ford focus tdci first as I knew the FL version had a significant upgrade in power as opposed to the pre FL .

The price of the top of the line V6 with the brembo option costs just a touch under the baseline BMW.

Oh, btw, the base model of the coupe is the 6 speed 2.0T costs just a tiny hair above what the base model if the i45 (1-2k difference) so your imagined theory is totally out of whack

There is no Ford Focus TDCi here. Who are you kidding? And I am curious that since Komoco Hyundai hasn't launched the Genesis Coupe here, where did you get the price from?

Do all participants have to be singaporeans residing in Singapore? Remove your head out of your butthole. Im residing in a LHD country where the coupe is easily available.

@grandcruiser obviously I got my prices and facts from proper research (i even test drove one *gasp*) instead of playing theorycraft in the armchair during my school holidays,

@Lammy84, Sigh... I already hinted you of the SINGAPORE CONTEXT since my first few posts here, "The successor of the Tuscani is Veloster, scheduled to arrive here in early 2012", "We are talking about the price scenario here. Dude." Notice how manytimes I mentioned the word "HERE"!

It is not about getting my head out of the b*tthole - it is about YOU getting the context RIGHT.

Sad to say, your proper research or so is irrelevant since it is not related to the SINGAPORE CONTEXT.

And dude, don't brag to me like an arrogant punk. I do know more than you since my so-called "silly misinformation" is more relevant to the local context than your irrelevant reference to overseas.

You are sounding childish and egoistic. Drop that.
