I have nothing against the Genesis coupes, aside from the interiors being a bit drab in color-scheme. Interior layout is superb and I quite like the ergonomics.

One thing that stood out to me in person, that I hadn't figured in the magazine photos, is the size. It's a significantly larger vehicle than the Crossfire. For me, that killed it.

Couple that with the thrashy motor, and it just didn't speak to me like the XF does.

The 2013 will be stout and I expect them to increase overall refinement as well.

Forums... yes, that can be a bit of an issue. But I see just as many douchebags on the lofty "Mercedes" forum as I see on the 'ricer' forums. Punks infiltrate all types of vehicles, sadly. You can put the punk in a classy car or a beater, and the driver's class seldom changes. Sadly, ANY car that is sporty and attainable by younger kids will have a fanbase devoid of basic social refinement. F-bombs (in every sentence) are still considered an appropriate way to convey one's thoughts at age 17...

I'm biased, but it seems we have a much smaller infestation of D-bags on this forum than any other I've ever participated in. Hoping it stays that way.

Stay classy, San Diego.
