G37 vs Hyundai Genesis Coupe (Road & Track Comparo)

[cvt]

bunluvsvw needs to realise seer's track is a 'fast' track....i mean a G37 running 12s on just DRs...that's some heavenly conditons right there...definately not fontana.

Ummm, Im not dumb, the genesis engine is a de-tuned Mitsubishi Evo Engine. basically whatever the evo can do, the genesis can do also, but a tad slower due to it being non awd. Basically, Im just messing around. lol

yeah, I do realize that already, even without DRs his time is ridiculous fast for a stock G37. Makes me wonder if the time is played around with on that track...

I think it was Edmunds that said that the internals are weaker in the Genesis, not as beefed up as the internals in the Evo. So people who mod them should be a bit more cautious & beef up the internals before going all crazy

This guy is a great reviewer though, nice find and nice article!!!

Second off, if I were you, I wouldn't question my knowledge on modifying cars. I currently own a C6 Z06 with a 454 Stroker and a Procharger F1A that I've built on my own. I'm extremely knowledgable on what it takes to build a vehicle to make it go fast down the 1320. The Genesis's respond very well to modifications, and can hold a decent amount of hp on stock parts. What more do you want me to say about it? It's been a proven fact the damn things make 50hp and 70tq at the wheels with just a simple tune, are you really that blind to not believe with a turbo swap, some fuel upgrades and some bolt ons they won't scoot? I think you need a lesson in how to build a car.

The fact is bolt ons, a tune, a turbo, and some tires will make them run 11's... the end

thats what im talkn bout
