Renault......where's the puke thingy? There isn't one, so:

Heartbreaking! Putting a french engine in a Jap car?

[Danny Neville]

The concept car heralds the introduction of an all-new, rear-wheel drive 2 + 2 sports coupe scheduled to join the Hyundai lineup in the spring of 2009...........


......When the production sports coupe arrives, it likely will be the most affordable 300+ horsepower car on the market.


The look of Concept Genesis Coupe was in part inspired by LeMan's race cars, drifters and by Jada Toys Dub City™ die cast vehicles.


ftw



(and I can't believe I'm saying that)

S16 pic looks cool.

[Harlen]

The S16 looks bloody nice! Like a mini-Merc imo.

225HP sounds nice, but any Powwaazzz that's French instantly cancels itself out anyway.

[mohawk14]

all new cars these days look the same as each other all have too much bulky safety equipment etc. of all people i thought nissan MAY of turned the corner and go back to raw unfettled greatness (GTR and so on) but ,

bring back the late 80's and 90's jap cars

[superclarkey]

Thats wank, they clearly had a pod nuddle overload while designing that shit.

frick it a micra looks better then that turd.

[MTW]

looks wank, the concept hyundai looks the shit, the production one looks toss, i like aggressive looking cars, all new cars look pants and samey.

[Jak]

Is this the S16 Silvia

I bloody hope not

[driftmunky28]

if thats a silvia then it better not go anywhere near driftin n a hope its sum sort of family version n ther is a REAL S16 cumin out coz that looks crap especially on a drift course

[Daddy_D]

Both cars looking great where my preference goes for the Hyundai. Only because of the bodykit photo probably. However, as a future drift car upgrade I've already got dibs on the E82:

By that time I'm sure I would have brushed on my skills to appreciate the Bi-turbo, however I still hope the 128i will be also available in Europe and not only USA. It's nice to have N/A power for those who like instant throttle response (me).

[retrodan]

ahaha love the renalt bashing, tbh i have seen more of the newer nissan engine break than the renault ones, and the new nissan diesel engines are gash, 3ltr but still 4cyl !!!!

i like the look of that s16 pic!! but i am weird

Thats becuase its pretty much a renault engine.
350Z's are pretty gash.

Why are almost all new cars totally ass-ugly?

And what is the Jap obseesion with making all thier cars look like new mercs all of a sudden?

Make them stop, Matt. Just make them stop.

This is supposed to be the 's16' (random net stumble) looks better than those first pics-
