Back seats need = s2k --> 2.0 R-spec
what can i say, i needed back seats. 
aftera almost 2yrs, i traded in my 2004 s2k for a Hyundai Genesis 2.0 R-spec.
i really dont miss the S but, i did like it.
my first ever new car isnt the "best" at anything but its "good" at everything. i got 2.5k over KBB for my s2000 and the GenCoupe for 2k under MSRP. Now, im gonna resist from getting a piggy back for as long as i can due to warranty.
but knowing that $450 can give me 276wtq at 3,000RPM is VERY tempting
so far i havent pushed it to its limits due to the 600 mille brake in period Hyundai suggest. It handles nicely and is very smooth. NOT as fast as the s2k stock but after $450 it sure will be.

isn't r-spec some sporty package including 19" wheel and brembo?
edit: "The Genesis Coupe R-Spec that is priced at $23,750 or $3,000 less than the 2.0T Track model, adds a series of performance orientated goodies such as track-tuned suspension, 19-inch gunmetal-finish alloy wheels with performance summer tires, Brembo braking system, Torsen limited-slip differential, and R-Spec badging."

oooh that one.
didn't they take some features out of it to save some weight or something? when i first read about it, i thought it was pretty funny. i don't remember what they took away though.
anyway, it should become a pretty fun car once OP starts to mod it. good luck and keep us posted.

Looks good, but the pictures aren't showing up on AZine. Image shack sucks, you should use Photobucket.

I stopped paying attention right as the V6 began to develop some serious numbers through 1 tuner & when the I4 was responding nicely to basic mods.
I ask because I'm very interested in the Genesis & my next car has to have a numerous amount of mods that can push it past 400whp, so it's between this & the Mustang V6/GT right now.

Judging by this post, have you kept up with how the V6 & I4 are doing in the aftermarket community?

How do you like the Gen-coupe so far dude? I'm 99% sure that I'll be getting another car in 2-3 years, unless I Supercharge the TL. I was looking at Z's and S2000's but after seeing what a simple tune can do to the Gen-coupe 2.0t, I've decided to put these in the running as well. Plus, the gen-coupe has backseats. lol.
lol.

i finally got some pics. hahaa. with my blackberry n i suck at taking pics also. here ya go.
first mod will be the OEM, fog lights, who cares about that much weight to not offer it on this trim anyway. i already looked up the DIY.
the back is huge!
wheels look small cause i suck at pictures but, theyre 19's. Rotors are 13.4 inch and has 4 Piston Monoblock Brembos. just need a drop
ill get some engine shots later. it has so much room and the turbo is very accesible. looks nice.
