Choosing a car based on reliability is like choosing a wife based solely because she is punctual. There is more to it than that...

I'm  :drool:  over a Hyundai.. noooo.. what is the world coming to..

No need to buy this model.  Just the regular 2.0T...and do the regular bolt-on/mods that the EVOs use.  You'll have more HP...for less money.  I've been saying this for awhile...the 2.0 should be able to do 300HP with relative ease...

^^Where you been?   :)  The new EVOs don't use 4G63 anymore.  4B11T is the new one...of which Mits. and Hyundai shared the design.  Each have their own specialized heads though...but both a VERY mod friendly...

Not for me but ( but the Genesis sedan maybe) I would expect to see them all over the place.

 The Datsun 240Z for this decade I'd say.

  If these new Hyundai cars don't get people to start buying cars again then there is no hope for us.  This will drive the CAW berserk.

I can go for that. Turbo I4 will be less weight than the V6, and higher revs for more fun.

Surf over to some of the Genesis forums and see some of the numbers.......I'm impressed already...

Stock: 185-191 RWHP

Bolt-ons (exhaust, intake, GT30R turbo) 362RWHP, 302 TQ.  :o

Pretty impressive for not alot of outlay of cash.....
