"SEATS" are Cloth. Comfortable as long as your not overly obese. I've taken mine on many long journeys 150-350 miles. The ride is what you should expect from the caliber of car it is with non-adjustable suspension yet it's compliant.. It's NOT jarring.

Absolute crap review. The opinion reflects step mother treatment to Hyundai. In any case, nobody is bothered about rear seats. Does German Brands offer good rear space? Review based on negative mindset. I believe some people can't digest the fact that Hyundai now produces decent vehicles at affordable prices.... And please remember the warranty Hyundai offers.... By the way I own Hyundai Santa Fe and BMW 320i. Peace of mind when it comes service and maintenance costs. Even if some cars manage 1 sec faster than Hyundai, that doesn't make them great and not worth paying additional 20K or more.... Hyundai is not perfect but not bad either.....

I test drove a 2.0T Premium in Platinum Silver Metallic and was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to drive on both the street and the interstate. In the automatic the paddles can be used to override the computer without the shifter being in sport mode. The paddles do add a good measure of convenience when you can't be bothered to shift using the lever. The engine has plenty of low-end stomp for merging and passing, unlike the FR-S. And with eight gears to play with, the extra measure of control from the paddles will rarely go to waste on a deserted, twisty stretch of road

The dude says his problem is "what is the car" as in "who is it for" but if you go to the Hyundai site they have more options for ordering this car for what YOU want it to be. It comes with a 4 cylinder 274hp turbo motor or a 350hp v6, that really is amazing in comparison with the hp rate of its competitors and the fact that you can buy a Genesis Coupe to compete in whatever you want as long as you can get over the Hyundai name. It can do what a BRZ does or a Mustang you just have to order it.

Fast reliable and easily modded for the tuners out there. I thoroughly enjoy my 13 3.8 gt genesis coupe. And dont get me wrong 370s and 350s are beautiful cars but at the price that they are the outputs are almost the same stock. Its about preference i guess. Dont hate till you drive it CORRECTLY. The torque on the genny is fun and the speed that it gains is furious. I dont regret a thing, people always are giving compliments and giving the thumbs up!

Agreed, excellent value for the money. I originally wanted a 350/370 but there is even less room in that and NO backseat. That was a dealbreaker for me. I have used the backseat for storage and even people when necessary. I wouldn't recommend putting people back there for a road trip, but it is there if you need it. The FRS/BRZ felt underpowered after driving the Genesis Coupe 3.8. The 350/370 are too impractical as an only car, and are still heavier cars. The Camaro/Mustang are a dime a dozen and also as heavy as the Genesis Coupe with less displacement and less horsepower. Luxury brands are too expensive if you want something newer. This car fit the bill perfectly, not to mention one of the best warranties in the business. I thoroughly enjoy my 2015 3.8

Alas, we are both cursed with the Bigfoot syndrome. The issue I often have is the space in the foot-well area and the spacing of the pedals. American and European coupes seem to work best for me. If I’m testing a Japanese or Korean car, I usually wear skinny shows, like my Vans. Big boots can often touch more than one pedal in small cars. Some of the most comfortable cars for me to drive for my feet and knees are MINIs and the Volvo C30. Despite the small size, I am comfortable behind the wheel.

Folding down the backseats make it very easy to carry snowboards, guitars, etc. Cargo room is never a problem. But why is "identity" a problem? It's only a problem if you're obsessed with pigeonholing cars into labels that people constantly argue about. Is it a sports car, a GT car, a muscle car...or...who cares?
