2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 Track vs 2013 Ford Mustang V6 Performance Package

[@DANKrONE42]

At the end of the day, the Genesis beat the Mustang. The *HYUNDAI* (former laughing stock of the car community) beat the *FORD*. You got to give Hyundai some props...

[@TheFreshPeddler]

But they didnt. The genesis rivaled the gt in cost. Thats the problem. Still a pat on the back to hyundai for the genesis, minus the sloppy shifter as a reminder that its still a hyundai. It should have been an easy fix before the first production run but im not sure they ever addressed it. They are def not up to par with ford where fit and finish is concerned but they also dont have a long history of performance cars. Now in the used market the price difference might evaporate, idk. Def easier to search for mustangs though, obviously.

[@FatalFist]

@@TheFreshPeddler It kind of seems like Genesis have gone up in value simply because they don't make them anymore, the car has developed a cult following. Thanks almost in part with FRS and BRZs that have had more accidents, the Genesis tends to hold more value than its competitors during that time. Where as Mustangs just tend to sell for a lot regardless, they're Ford after all.

[@sugerhitman1295]

With removing the speed limiter, you also have to upgrade the driveshaft. The V6 has a weak shaft from the factory that breaks at 120 mph, hence the limiter. With a solid set of gears, a driveshaft, and a nice tune, these cars can seriously move.

If the V8 in the Genesis sedan becomes an option, the Genesis coupe will be able to fully compete with muscle cars.

Why I picked a genesis 3.8 over a mustang v6. More power Build quality seemed superior Looks Steering Better alloys and tires Infinity sound Better warranty Cheaper financing. There are already 2 Stangs on my street. The sound of the stock exhaust system is intoxicating. Bare in mind my father was a Ford dealer.. Class A tech.

[@Unb3arablePain]

I used to think the Genesis Coupe was a POS. Then I took a drive in one. Holy shit, that perception was blasted away. The car is fast, feels fast, and is fun too drive! If you look at the Ultimate, which is priced about $33k, it has some amazing features with it. I'm surprised you could get Nav, a 10 speaker HD audio system, full leather seats, and a great warranty for the price (some dealers offer free tires and oil for the car's life). It's the best value on the market today for a sports car. While I think the BRZ is great, it just lacks the value for the money. The Genesis is the most bang for your buck and I was surprised at the speed and luxury you get with it. Comparing the Mustang to this doesn't make much sense to me. While the Mustang will be the faster of the two (if we compare the 5.0L w/ performance since they're the same price), The Genesis is a performance blend like the Audi S5. You're paying for performance, practicality, and luxury all together. The Mustang has more speed and some of the same features, but it's nowhere near as practical or special as the Genesis. The 2015 Mustang Interior just felt old to me. Either way, I don't think you can go wrong with either car. It's just more about what fits your personality.

[@user-mv9ec5cq3y]

I couldn't agree more. A lot of people like to overlook all of that for some reason. I had ZERO intentions on buying a Genesis before I test drove one. Took it home that same night! It's amazing what Hyundai was able to do with this car at such an affordable price.

I love the styling on this mustang, but it’s true that Ford skimped our going old school in handling and suspension technology. All the money is in the motor. Overall, if I had a family and fun curvy roads in the neighborhood, Genesis Coupe. However just for the pure style and straight line performance this Mustang is gold.

[@JUNOMAN]

Both cars are awesome , I give respect to Hyundai for stepping the game... but if you want a true american muscle car you gotta get the V8 IMO... not bad for genesis hopefully they put a V8 in the future

[@gcxj220]

The verdict says it all: "Not only is the Hyundai Genesis Coupe a better and more luxurious daily driver. It's also the superior performance machine."

[@TVinmyEye]

Hyundai has already discontinued the 2.0T. The 2.0T base was priced at 25k so now the V6 models are going to adopt that 2.0 price. While the up and coming V8 model will start around 30k. So now pricing will pretty much be identical to the stangs. Honestly the genesis looks way fucking better.

[@xuimod]

TVinmyEye I know looks are subjective but I think the Genesis coupe looks like crap. Its way too noisy in the front and back. By noisy I mean it has too many weird curves and lines on the front fascia and the back end tail light area.

[@cutsomeone]

Then what exactly is the mustang to you

[@xuimod]

charles banxton As far as appearance, I think the Mustang looks way better. Imo the Genesis is pretty damn ugly in general compared to most sports cars out there (370z, BRZ, Mustang, Camaro). But in general the Genesis is a better sports car than the Mustang. The Mustang just looks better (the V8 Mustang is a different story though).

[@bryane2514]

Been in both, the genesis definitely turns more heads!

[@ItsLy1e]

Bo Dangers I had a group of guys recording me in my Gen cause they thought it was an exotic or some shit. And when this twin turbo v6 Genesis comes out, you better have a Shelby if you even wanna be in the discussion.

[@jamesd2277]

For everyone complaining about the Hyundai being more expensive, keep in mind they are comparing both cars because they are both V6s. The V6 Mustang is a base model Mustang, the V6 in the Hyundai is the premium model. If you want to compare prices, both base models are priced very close to each other. A V8 Mustang where I live is about $12000 more than the highest priced Genesis Coupe. If you're focusing on price, you need to compare apples to apples.

[@Jaylyons1]

Its another story where I live. You can get a base model 5.0 for $25k which is the same price as the Gen coupe also. Everyone and their mother has a Mustang though.

[@jamesd2277]

Just priced out a base model 5.0 on Ford's USA website. With absolutely zero options it priced out at $32000. Other countries like Canada they start at $41000. If you want to equip the Mustang with similar options that the Genesis has standard, $32000 becomes $40400.

[@gomezalejandrog]

I laugh at anyone dissing the Mustang at this point. This is Fords ENTRY coupe vs Hyundai's HIGH END model. If anything it shows how amazing the Mustang became!

[@TFlowie1096]

Well they are both very good cars.. But here is no point to think like that brother. Hyundai at some point will move their V8 (that already use on their higher-end models) to these models probably and it will be very close or even equal to the naturally aspirated V8 variant of the new Mustang.. Now if u say about supercharger/turbo types we move on topics as well... But now as thing stands I dont see a problem with either car.. As a true enthusiast and car lover I would say whatever sports car u pick right now it will give u lots of smiles whatever brand.. People like to bitch about everything like little boys about their little toys. But for me naaah I really enjoy them all.... Lovely cars bro moving on and take care~

[@affinity3281]

Well the Mustang Perf Package has 3.31 gears too which they didn't mention. It's not exactly base model, but still the test was not really fair. They should have flashed the Mustang to remove the speed limiter and improve throttle response. The input lag is awful. My first mods will be tuner (91 or 93 octane tune), adjustable panhard, and lowering springs to remove body roll.

[@kevin122759]

The new Mustang is even better. What I am impressed with is the tire size. Mustang has a wider tire then my 06 gto.

[@eriks82]

+Copenbro If you remove the speed cap you need to drop a one piece drive shaft into it. That's why it's capped -- stupid two piece drive shaft from Ford.

Subaru lies about its 0 to 60 times. They claim sub 5 seconds and 13.3 1/4. I have seen several hundred stock runs at the Strip at lvms and have yet to see a sub 14 second run. That's why the company is almost out of the American market.

[@frankwhite2132]

If the limiter was removed on the Mustang it would probably match the time of the Genesis. A tuner costs $300 and it adds like 20hp so you would save like 10 grand and have the better looking car. The Genesis looks ok all black but I couldn't justify paying 30 grand for a Hyundai.. or any amount for any Hyundai,

The Track and R-Spec models feature track-tuned spring, damper and stabilizer bar settings. Available camber adjustment bolts let drivers make additional suspension tuning changes. There's a rear Torsen limited-slip differential that guarantees better control and acceleration out of tight corners. Sticky, staggered fitment performance tires on 19-inch Euroflange dark graphite-finish alloy wheels. And higher performance Brembo brakes. Entry model Genesis is not the same as a Track model.

[@turbosrt9642]

I see they ignored the fact the Mustang is significantly cheaper yet just a tick behind in performance. A simple tune would make them even and all for thousands less. Sensing biast here.

Those laps also made me realize that I don't need 500hp to go fast - my little V6 Mustang - with a good driver, will beat a 500hp with a novice driver any day. And get 30mpg.

Some of you guys do not understand. The reason why the Hyundai Genesis Track is $33,000 is because it leaning towards the luxury sports car niche. Look I get, I know the Mustang is cheaper but its cheaper because it doesn't have all the nice bells and whistles the Genesis has. They even put the performance package on the Mustang that would make it into costing a little over $26,000. Just because the cabin of the mustang is "economy" doesn't mean it's any different than the premium Mustang.

[@claudexlucien]

Why do people keep comparing v8 to v6? Compare the gt with a corvette or something...they aren't even meant to be compared with the v6 versions...coulda had a v8...coulda had a 5.8...over the 5.0...just saying.

[@FocusFanaticSES]

The reason people keep saying that the mustang is limited to 120 mph is because of the final drive gear ratio or the 3.31:1 i believe. Meaning that it is faster off the line. The bad thing about that is that you cannot have both off the line acceleration and good top speed. The Performance Pack Mustangs come with that Limited Slip Diff with 3:31 gears that make it a great accelerating car after a turn giving it that sport car feel, but are compromising top speed to 115-120 mph.

No way that is even physically possible. Now you want to compare cars within the same price range, compare it against the GT, and it would beat the Genesis even in the gas mileage department. The Genesis is beat here, this review, if anything, just makes Fords new 2011+ Mustang V6 shine.

[@RayLaskyOutdoors]

Just got the ford 25k with performance package and tech package! Just took a mountain road marked 40 caution corner over 90 no slide out or body roll

[@joeburke8214]

What a joke , Genesis has 50 more horse , weighs 150lbs less and has no top speed limit!!! Genesis runs 135 at times on track while Mustang is limited to 120 and YOU CALL THAT FAIR???? lolol Mustang anyday over that Hyundai.

[@over1498]

+Joe Burke Fair? What's your point, that the Genesis is better in almost every possible way, so it's not fair to compare them?

[@joeburke8214]

+dsid1127 Yeah fair , How about we compare the Genesis to the Mustang GT? The GT is ONLY 60 more horse , of course the GT would walk all over that Hyundai. Would you call that fair ???? I DIDNT THINK SO

[@over1498]

+Joe Burke The whole point of this comparison is price range. How about I take a Z06 against your Mustang GT? we could go on like that forever, but if I'm getting a coupe under $30k, im taking the Hyundai... and trust me, I never thought I'd say something like that

[@joeburke8214]

+dsid1127 That test Hyundai was $33k , the Mustang $26k . The Genesis actually at 33k should be up against the Mustang GT cost wise. BOGUS comparison

[@alawadhi3000]

+Joe Burke The 3.8 Ultimate add nothing performance wise to the R-Spec, so you can get an R-Spec for $29K and actually gain a bit of performance because it weights 80lb less than the Ultimate.

[@peepfishes2]

If I'm not mistaken, I believe the limiter is because of the aluminum drive shaft. I've heard that it can "warp" and "blow up" at speeds over 125mph. Just something to think about.

[@carnivore74]

genesis all the way! Mustangs are soooo cheaply made, it's laughable!

[@black2011gt]

Really? that cheaply made? United auto workers that much worse than Korean sweat shop kids? damn.

[@supermon99]

black2011gt korean sweat shop kids work way more fucking harder than united auto gay and you know it too bitch

[@katanaben1]

I've had two brand new Hyunday in 2001 and 2005 and NEVER AGAIN.

[@Jaylyons1]

Honestly, the genesis is pretty cheaply made as well. They are both about on par there.

[@ryanbabakhani5150]

lol piece of shit hyundai fan talking about hyundai having quality now THAT's laughable

[@59summerset]

Genesis 3.8 w/ Track package is 33,895 Mustang GT w/ Track package is 34,000 Which one do you think would go faster round a track?

[@rockerjakerful]

Mustangs are the shittyest sports cars built today!!!!¡¡¡¡¡!!!!!

[@black2011gt]

Mustang sales numbers are a little too high for this to make sense but ok

[@MrSh0rsh]

A lot of people don't have a heavy foot or that crave for power, but would still like the style of a mustang and enjoy cruising in one. Plus that new v6 isn't a chump either,305 hp is plenty of power for a normal person.

[@777Edub]

I love my 15 gen coupe 3.8 ult!

[@AutoNowledge]

So I just want to make sure I understand? - The Genesis Coupe is the Top-Most model going at $33,000 (Track Spec/MT) - The Mustang is the V6 Premium going for 29,090 (V6 Premium w/ Performance Pack) Why did you get a Base Mustang GT, No premium? - 32,500 with the GT Track Package. Why? - The mustang you reviewed is a V6. Not the V8. - It's more equal price-wise. 33k vs 32k not 33k vs 29k.

[@pontiacGXPfan]

The Genesis deserved to win. It's clearly the better car overall despite its lack of a V8

[@pontiacGXPfan]

@Texan Syndicalist Mustang offers a V8 but for considerably more money

[@stevennunez8141]

at the track of willow speings the mustang v6 with track pack did 129.09 the genesis r spec 129.12 ,genesis r spec v6 did a 128.71, motortrend

[@yaknow11]

My goodness will someone give Dave an adrenaline shot. Is he giving a review of cars or appraising antics?

[@istishhadi]

gotta love how these automakers/auto analysts tell you HP/Torque numbers without mentioning whether its @ the crank or the wheels. Realisticly there is no way a naturally aspirated vehicle like that can create huge HP numbers at the wheels. This is definately rated @ the crank.

[@mcmxcimega]

I have the 3.8. It really is that awesome.

[@1SIK500]

Yes you are very correct. I love the mustang more than any other car in the world but I would pick any other car over a v6 mustang.

[@stevennunez8141]

I can only assume that you are talking about me and im not a big mustang fan, But the truth is that a car in this type of pedigree is proven on the track. I also think you should go and reread my comments and it is only worth mentioning that the genesis is the only car that has been revised performence wise compaired to it's competition.

[@818silencer818]

That Genesis Track model costs $33,000 while a Mustang GT costs $30,900. Tell me again why they're comparing it to the V6 Mustang?

[@redblackstripe]

very fair evaluation, take that limiter off the mustang and i think the speed factors would be much closer, but with a $7,000 difference in price for the models the mustang could definitely add some sweet mods to kick it out a lot better. overall really nice. still love my mustang though

[@RHamill7]

Im a Hyundai certified technician and I see a LOT of similarities between Fords and Hyundai's. Look at the body styles between the 2. Also the engines are almost identical.

[@cryptickey8471]

I have great respect for both vehicles, especially the Hyundai for coming so far and managing a good balance of comfort with some thrill. Although i prefer the styling of the Mustang, the 120 speed limiter does discomfort me.

[@DWVids00]

WOW that new Genesis front end is HIDEOUS

[@computerized01]

It says the Mustang GT base is $31,545 on Ford's website. Where are you getting $26k?

[@VaunShiz]

actually one of my good friends has a Focus ST and the eco boost is great, that car tears around streets, as well as the Taurus SHO, it halls, Eco boost has been a huge success, and your comment on the design, everyone on the planet can see the similarities between the new fords and European cars like Aston Martin. They are fords with ford badges, just because they are styled like European cars just means they are finally good looking. its not a bad thing, actually learn things first

[@sebastienh78]

Thanks, but that's not my Mustang in this video, It's just the nice V6 of you tube mate. Me I drive a 2012 Boss 302, it's on my chanel if you want to take a look and hear it roar, but unfortunatly no track video. I tried it last summer and post a good 12:28 pass bone stock with only drag tire. Of course the standard 3:73 torsen gear, adjustable damper and 444hp 7500 rpm screaming V8 engine of the Boss 302 helped me a lot!

[@JayzBeerz]

Hyundai and Kia really stepping it up here in the US.

[@TecnamTwin]

The Genesis looks lower, wider, and meaner, but the Mustang's looks are classically awesome.

[@grant6730]

It's called a Consumer Reports. They take the reports from the actual owner of the car. It's as true as it can be.

[@miltymadeit9815]

Both are dope but I’ll take the mustang just for the tuner aspect of it. Theirs such a big community for the mustang.

[@lmorrow4]

Would have to agree, just simply based on price and horsepower, they're in two different classes

[@jermayne16]

Im about to buy a car but im torn between getting the Hyundai coupe or Infiniti g35 coupe any suggestions?

[@diez0305]

fucking thank you. these people are trying to compare a 22k vs. a 33k car then complain that it's unfair that "you can buy a gt for less", plus the fact that the hyundai has a turbo

[@KobraLink]

...lol All the premium trim adds is looks and some comforts for around 26k. The Genesis has a track pack witch add all the track performance enhancements. Just because they both cars have a V-6 it does not mean they are on the same league.

[@maryspencer2727]

Knew it!! I own one! Red/black genesis!! Love it!

[@tylerc7941]

What other car company offers 100,000 mile warranty?

[@bud35005]

Kia but no sport cars

[@solodude23]

Those are facts, he clearly got them straight from the Manufacturer's websites'.

[@chaahmongcyclist1066]

Noticed it was a Honda pro driver, not Hyundai. Either way, nice video!

[@jakal911]

2.0L yes. They were testing the 3.8L engine.

[@MrXYZ86]

The main advantage for the Genesis on any track with large straight aways is the higher factory speed limit. Delimited Mustang PP and top trim Genesis are tied up, while tight cornering tracks actually give Mustang a small advantage due to its much stiffer suspension setup and balancing.

[@hangman161]

I think its more to do with the fact that a 500hp engine will easily do those speeds but no one wants to engineer tires, body panels, crash systems, etc. because no one really needs it, but if they sell a car that will do more than those speeds, then they need to guarantee and test all those componenents up to those speeds. WIth a veyron, ppl understand if the tires wear out in 12 minutes at top speed, not in their reg cars, though.

[@scuds03]

Which car has a better warranty?

[@isaacpacheco09]

its actually half a second faster in both 0-60 and quarter mile. plus there is WAY more potential for the 5.0 to increase power, not to mention is sounds better aswell.
