Hyundai Genesis Coupe
The Genesis Coupe is the two-door version of the highly acclaimed Hyundai Genesis sedan, which was named North American Car of the Year at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January. The coupe, however, is sportier in appearance and performance: it is built on rear-wheel drive, is suspension-tuned for racing, and has a 300-horsepower, V-6 engine. The coupe also boasts Brembo brakes, which are usually found in cars that cost more than $25,500, plus luxury touches like a leather-wrapped steering wheel. Oh yes, there are bells and whistles too: the coupe has projector headlamps, trip computer, Bluetooth, iPod connection, active head restraints and electronic stability control.
