There aren't many under 30K 2+2 RWD coupes out there now... Back in the "old days" there were a lot or cheap rwd cars... Heck, even toyota and datsun/nissan had rwd vehicles at one time...
Now, we've got the Mustang, RX-8, and 128 in the under $30K RWD 2+2 coupe market... You can't count the S2k,Miata,Sky since those are 2 seater roadsters...
I think the introduction of the Genesis coupe will shake up the market... more competition in that category will bring better vehicles into the segment which ultimately is great for us, the consumer...

Unfortunately you're wrong. Hyundai Group which is a conglomerate was founded in 1947 and Honda Motor Co was founded in 1948. and neither copied the name off each other..

Thanks for the chops.
Look at the third picture, the last one. This is the best looking Coupe so far. I told ya those large air scoops on the front bumper makes this car so appealing.
I noticed the front center grill has increased in size too. Not bad.

As much as I'm interested in Genesis Coupe I'm afraid it will not get my money since my Acura lease will expire on Oct this year. I have to get me a new car at that time. Too bad the Coupe won't be out this year.
This only gives me the following options. Go get:
- Hyundai Genesis Sedan V8
- '08 Acura TL Type-S 6MT
- '08 Acura TSX 6MT
I donno man.... i'm sure the Genesis sedan will be very nice in quality and luxury but it might be too luxury for me.

By Oct, 08 TSX's won't be available since the 09 comes out in a few weeks. The 09 TL will likely be available by then and I'm sure 08's will still be available as well.
