Genesis Coupe ako! 2 doors is still 2 doors. Not many pinoys will buy a coupe.

GC will turn more heads than GTA in terms of looks.

A fast car that handles well (in factory form) and looks great but frugal on the fuel. If factory-stock performance is inadequate, Speedlab has a few tricks to give it major horsepower & torque boost with some simple mods.

kahit anong variant pa ilaban at paglabanin, genesis pa rin ako. its not all about brute and power and heritage.

Unless you're frequently encountering open stretches of road, I'll go for the Lancer EX GT-A. Being able to haul an additional 2-3 people at the back is really convenient at times where you'll be hauling people. The Genesis trumps it on the looks, but I'd go for everyday practicality instead.

The GT-A must be around 200k+ cheaper after discounts. That's a huge amount and you can properly get some performance mods from the aftermarket tuners.

In either way, I ended up comparing the Hyundai Genesis with the newly released Hyundai Sonata

ayun ang malapit na price.

The Coupe 2.0T is quick, no doubt... but rear headroom is at a premium compared to any four-door car (the legroom is actually pretty good for a coupe).

But... if we're talking about driving fun... the Focus TDCi is actually close enough. Not quite as quick, but almost so... good handling, too... and it's got an automatic... which the Coupe doesn't.

If I want excitement from my Lancer, I'd actually go for the base unit with the MT. The change you get from this can go to a sound system to match the stock RF of the GTA, bigger wheels, a suspension, a turbo... in the end, you'll have something more fun than the stock Coupe 2.0T, for less money.
