I like the rear but not the taillights. The interior is almost exactly the same. Its okay i guess :p

I kinda like the tailights but i guess when it comes to america it will be a little different Unless this is a sister car for the korean market only. Im guessing since it says Coupe and not tuscani.

I don't think that this is a big enough departure from the current car's design to restart sales.

We'll see.

I agree. It doesn't catch my attention at all.

But then again, this is Hyundai. They're not groundbreaking in design, even though they want to be...

That tiny front grill opening looks just like the now discontinued Celica. And also the Cougar.

Really surprised by this. I was looking forward to be totally blown out of the water with this redesign as I think the current one is very nice to look at.

Looks like they went the Nissan/Infiniti route and did minor revisions here and there and call it a totally new car.

i think its a good looking car for its price tag. why not make bold looking designs when you have nothing to lose but a lot to gain.
