    wel there are some pics of that too
    its very very very similar just no CF

    i wish there were interior shots tho. there are interior shots of the test mule being driven around tho

    also the production model should be unveiled in march
    but still 300+ horses for around 24-25k rwd with LSD.. hrmmmm..supposed to be low weight.. or at least not too heavy.

    I like the rear, and the side is pretty sharp, but the front needs to grow on me I think.

    Looks just like the new Tiburon except with a body kit. I like it though.

    for wohever posted the g37. they did state that they wanted this car to compete against that in its "class" aka luxury sportyness etc on a budget but also be able to keep up with other powerful cars. the mustang and i believe the m3 were used as performance benchmarks for this model.

    I wish they would tell us the weight expected, but they say it should be light and their primary focus on the genesis is light weight big car with almost 50/50 balance so they said to expect the same here.

    IMO, I like the concept look a lot. Let's just hope that it won't be disappointing like the new G37 compared to its Concept.
