On a side note, even if I like everything about the car, I cannot get used to the center console. It looks like something that belongs in a minivan.

They don't understand that they will draw more customers by selling the concept design. I said this 10,009,211 times but I'll say it again, the front aero scoops on the bumper and ventilated CF hood and aero CF bumper are the most important ingredients in this car. I said this before but I don't mind paying $$$$$$$$$$$ just for the front scoops... but they wanted to f#@k up.... don't know why but..... :troutslap
It's still no slouch.

You can purchase the , "front aero scoops on the bumper and ventilated CF hood and aero CF bumper", aftermarket.
If they incorporated those features into the stock car, the car price would go up considerably. And not everyone want those " front aero scoops on the bumper and ventilated CF hood and aero CF bumper" looks.
Thats why there is aftermarket, people like you can buy it.

Tiburon means shark in spanish, and there's no mistaking the influence of that in the design of the rear windows of the Gcoupe, with it's shark like lower curvature.

I actually think msl is correct, the Geneis coupe, at least from the sides, appears to be more influenced by the 1st gen Tiburon rather than the previous generation.
But wow that 1st gen Tiburon was ugly.
And the 2nd gen doesn't win any beauty contests either.

The 2nd-gen Tiburon (before the shitty update) was widely lauded when it first hit the market.
The first-gen was a pile of dogshit as a car and as a design concept. I still think the Genesis is more like the 2003-2006 Tiburon than anything else.

Wouldn't make sense to offer a 290hp I4, and a 300 V6 in the same car... Not many people would buy the more expensive V6.

No, the I-4 turbo is "capable" up to 290 hp with boosted psi from stock engine.
But the spec is:
For V6:
310 HP
266 TQ
For 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder:
223 HP
217 TQ.
Period.
