Day-by-Day Review: 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8GT; Day 3
So the Genesis Coupe isn't the most practical sports car around, says James, but what really matters here is how the car drives. And it's in that department that this car really shines, he says.

I think it makes poor use of passenger space. Materials change won't help that.

Complete opposite of the refreshing Versa and its spaciousness.

I think the quality of Dodge interiors is more perception than reality.  Our 13 year old Neon's interior is still in very good shape and fully functional. 

My dad's wife has a Caliber.  Garbage interior. That's reality.

Do expand...

Is the interior actually falling apart, and are controls no longer functional? Are they requiring frequent repair/warranty work?  Are there rattles and squeaks?

Or is it just the hard plastics not "feeling" good? 

Both?

We had a rental Caliber for a while last year and got to know it quite well, subsequently removing it from our car shopping short-list. H

I guess I can see why now.  Smiley
