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.

But damn...the car is just so FUGLY.  Why can't GM make a scaled-down CTS body and throw it on that chassis??   Grin

As a SS/SC driver I would agree.....but I still think you're being a little hard on the looks. It's not sexy, nor beautiful, but it's not ugly. Still, mini CTS...sign me up. I'd love a little car from Cadillac with this (the new turbo) engine. Anyway, the major problem with the looks at this point is that they're outdated, it was fine when it came out.

Anyway, my my experience, the SS/SC or SS/TC is not a car you want to be driving when you're  over 30 (if you can help it)......

The Cobalt's not the looker that, say, a Volvo C30 is, but it still falls into the "better looking than the Civic Si" category for me.  And don't make me post pictures of the Caliber SRT4...

Anyway, the Cobalt's successor is on the way, and it's attractive inside and out.  I can't wait for the Cruze SS Turbocharged.

Exterior styling similarities aside, the Cruze is not even near the same under-pinnings as the current A-cars.

VMango's had that avatar here for a while.  VMango, where did you get that avatar, or did you make it yourself?  WopOnTour, you claim to have made that avatar, when did you make it?
