An oil temperature/pressure gauge is definitely a great thing to have in a performance oriented car for three reasons. 1) if you actually drive it aggressively for an extended period of time; like if you track it or drag it. 2) if you’ve done significant modifications to the drivetrain and added power and is no longer just a OEM reliable performance oriented car. 3) you drive a slammed build all cambered out and with lowered suspension(bagged or static:especially static lol) DEFINITELY would wanna know if your oil temp spikes or oil pressure dips so you know if you cracked or ripped off your oil pan when you just bottomed out on that nasty pothole. So if you bought a sports car and kept it stock the way you purchased it from the dealership and was shipped from the factory and only daily drove the car and didn’t race it or track it, then there is really no need to go out of your way to install a physical aftermarket oil temperature/pressure gauge. Depending on whether or not the car is modded from stock and if it’s driven hard or not an oil gauge can be very useful and highly recommended or nearly unnecessary and there just to look cool lol

I bought a 2010 Genesis Coupe in Grand Touring trim in 2010. I was going through a divorce and could no longer afford the Infiniti G37 convertible that was going to be my next car. I loved that Genesis coupe. Five years later, I traded it in on a G37 convertible and regretted it within a year. It's far from being the objectively best car I've ever owned, but it may be my favorite. I do not think that they were trying to make it a luxury car. I don't think they knew quite what they were doing with the Genesis nameplate yet when they put out a luxury sedan and a sports coupe with the same name. Though not quite real luxury, the sedan's interior was way, way, way better quality and materials than the coupe's.

Owned my 2010 3.8 GT since 2012 and I still love it. Incredibly reliable, fun to drive and I can still get my daughter in the back seat in her car seat. At the time the engine was great and after all these years, I'd rather invest 18K into a brand new LS3, T56 swap and keep it another 8 years rather than spend 50+K into a car docked out with driver aids and other electronic bull shit. With a class 1 I don't drive like a 16 year old anymore so a solid bump in power to keep it fun is all I want in a car. Everyone has their opinion, but if it's not their car, who gives a shit.

This critique is exactly mine. I replaced the clutch pedal rod with an adjustable one, and that solved a bunch the issue for me. Also, the drive by wire lag can be eliminated with a potent booster that adjusts the throttle curve of you gas pedal.

Infiniti/Nissan RWD-based vehicles are actually VERY good cars. G37, Q40, Q50, Q60, QX80, Armada, Titan, Frontier, 370Z and GT-R are long-lasting, durable vehicles. A G37 Coupe does have much better resale than a Genesis Coupe, but is still cheaper than a Lexus RC350. 3.7 based cars also have the luxury of a plethora of power-adders that no other Asian coupe (aside from FR-S, but they are weak) has available to them. Now, if you want to say "All Nissan FWD-based CVT vehicles are utter garbage" I'd agree with you 100% ! Nissan makes some SHIT cars!

I've been wanting to see this so bad!! I'm happy ya like it I've loved mine!

I have a red 2013 2.0T, and I love the thing. The handling is amazing and it's just enough power for me, as I really don't want anything 400hp. I've kept it hand washed, waxed, and the inside interior always has a protective coating wiped on.

Cant wait for the new flagship Genesis Coupe

It's dope. And underrated. Iove it. Its almost like what I wish the 86 was

Oh man, not just an Asimov reference, but like, his best story ever. Well done dude. Love your vids.

I love my bk1, I wasn't really looking for a gen coupe but it found me. My sister's boyfriend told me he was selling his r spec with 90k miles for 4 grand, I test drove it and jumped on it. It came with a box to reflash the ecu to a 20lb boost tune any time and revert to stock for emissions test. Also came with a spare water pump, spare brake pads, a performance clutch to handle the extra power from the tune, and a boost gauge I can install. It was a huge step up from my 94 Celica. Brembo brakes, 19" wheels, sticky pilot ss tires, lower performance suspension, 6 speed manual, and a limited slip diff. Is it the most perfect sports car ever? No of course not. But for the price I got it for I couldn't be more happy. 20lb of boost and bolt ons really wake up the first gen 2.0t

I'd be really interesting when rcr finally gets around to reviewing the newer Korean cars. They've come a long way in just 5 years. G70, Stinger, N spec i30 or Veloster.

As a long time jdm fanboy who works on my on cars etc... The Genesis Coupe has been my favorite car since I first laid eyes on it. Which was the day I bought one. 6 years I've had mine. It's the 2013 2.0t 6spd rspec. Reliability is fine but the clutch is too weak, and the shifter plays around a lot so upgrade those. Great thing is that it's sooo easy to work on this car. Also he's right about ABS lmao every little tiny slip will cut hp to the wheels. Also it's soooo easy to drift even the i4cyl I love my genny ain't gonna lie. Finally a car reviewer giving it some love on KZread.

i drive the 2.0 liter version and its awesome

Welp all the Genesis coupes just rise in price by a factor of 40% awesome

I loooove these cars. Almost bought a 2016 but it sold before I could pull the trigger. Still want one.

Thanks for doing that one. I've been kinda curious about these since I found out they'd been out there. (I think there's a thing where when people make a rear drive coupe with a standard etc, they've had a tendency to not make much noise about it... The same thing kinda happened with the Holden GTO Pontiac was selling, here's me being like, 'Eh, new cars suck now, why think about em,' and that thing was around there all along looking like they stuck GTO badges on like a bigger Honda Accord or something. Hyundai in particular, they'd been making those Tiburons that looked for *all the world* like they were supposed to be old school rear drive ... and they weren't. (I kind of liked the looks of them, though. I kind of assumed the new coupes were ...basically the same thing.) I mean, when someone makes a car to please people that might be disillusioned with newer cars, they should yell about it a bit more, I guess. :)

I love this car. And all the things you mentioned are true like the fake hood scoops and the stupid gauges are a big pet peeve of mine as well. But regarding the traction control, there are three settings! Pressing the traction control once and not holding it will turn traction control off. This is something I do automatically when I start my car every time. When you press and hold it and hear the beep you are now turning off traction control and stability control. This is something I do not recommend driving around in city or public areas. But when turning off traction control only, there is no leg or interference at all when you step on it. I also purchased a sprint booster which eliminated 100% the throttle lag.

It's 4am! Eh sleep can wait🤧

Oil pressure first, then temp if you really need it. When oil pressure is low at driving RPM, it's hot.

For us older drivers, you get the ultimate/GT model which gives you the lumbar support you were complaining about. So glad mine has it, I need it. Also, R-spec and ultimate get track tuned suspension over the base models.
