@Jeff B Honestly, I wanted to punch every single one of them. The 2.0T is so ridiculously slow my stock ITR can beat it. But they'd only go "But BOOOOOST > NA" like a bunch of teenage dumbasses LOL.

I haven't driven the Genesis Coupe, but I have tried out some S2000s. Not a lot of torque, but balanced handling and a nice revvy engine. I like the S2000 quite a bit, my girlfriend rode with me one time when I was driving one and she said never again. They are fun to pitch through turns right at the limit of adhesion. She said it was too small and might not come off well in an accident. My driving she trusts, it is just that there are so many others on the road that she doesn't.

Meant 240 hp for the S2000, the genesis has 306.

true. 240bhp is not good, but it can compete with a s2000. at least its not a crappy smart for two with 44hp.

Have they heard of the corvette, dodge viper, mazda rx-7, toyota supra, bmw m3, Ferrari 599, etc. You get the point.
And a 2.0T Coupe wouldnt stand a chance around a track against an S2000. The V6 is good but the 2.0 is just awfully slow.

I was trolling the Genesis Coupe forums and man, those people are IDIOTS. They think their overweight car is the best FR coupe ever created. I loved their claims that a 2.0T could beat an S2000 because "no torks". Had to post this up because it made me lol. If only there were more times out there.
