Eager to get your hands on the new 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe? So are we. But in the meantime, we've learned about some first hand impressions with it. Car enthusiasts love it for its updated/upgraded engine, style and design, and of course for its price. While starting at just $25,125 for the basic package, the Genesis Coupe promises to be a game changer in the new car market.

When we drove the Genesis coupe in mid-2009 at a media preview, we were pretty impressed with Hyundai’s efforts. After thrashing both turbo four-cylinder and naturally aspirated V-6 models around a racetrack, we concluded: “Regardless of which flavor you choose or modifications you install, there's plenty about the Genesis coupe to like. It's an affordable, attractive sports coupe, with the unique appeal of rear-wheel drive.” In subsequent drives of the Genesis coupe at our editorial office, Automobile Magazine editors found plenty to like but also lots to gripe about. Generally speaking, we concluded that ride comfort (especially in models with the optional track package), interior trim quality, overall refinement, and the power delivery and NVH characteristics of the 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder, in particular, were lacking. So, although we loved the idea of the Genesis coupe---a rear-wheel-drive sporty car for the common man, an all-too-rare commodity---we thought the common man deserved more. “Here’s one Hyundai that needs some more polishing,” was a typical comment from our 2009 reviews.
