Depends what you want to do but RWD is just so much nicer/more fun to drive than FWD or AWD. Check out a BMW too. ---

If you’re thinking about the Genesis, go test drive one. Take the turbo 4 and the v6 out and see how you like them. ---

Biggest set back for the 2.0 is the Seimens ecu. As of now all you can do is a piggyback or go full standalone but hopefully that’ll change soon. 3.8 guys on the other side of the pond run twin turbo v mount setup putting down 480whp on 93. I would wait for this car a year or two for the aftermarket support starts pouring in ---

I was looking into them but they just dont have the aftermarket support to make them reasonably quick without dropping way too much money into it. I think the highest numbers I saw without a turbo upgrade were in the low 200whp range, 220whp I think. And it would cost a few grand just to get to that point. ---

there is an upgraded turbo kit for 4 grand that’ll get you to a 12.998 (literally) ---

Its a well built car, good for a mild daily. The drive by wire and ecu does suck. For the price i’d look at a used bimmer but thats just me. ---

You can find a real nice E36M or an ok E46M in that range. ---

I ran one on the highway about 2 months back. It was black, body kit, alteast Intake/exhaust and had a loud ass BOV…new jersey plates. Young kid with his women. it was a close race! the car definitely surprised me… I left it in 5th and still beat him from a 50 hit… ---

Drove one, liked it, almost bought an R-Spec but the financing was fucking horrible… After the test drive there was some random steam in the engine too, a little disconcerting. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/thoughts-on-a-hyundai-genesis-2-0t-track-edition/255033.md?page=1)
