I can respect that... a lot. Sporty yet tasteful. Note the Nissanesque audio and climate controls on the center panel.

The look of blue background light on the dash and the blue on the gauges bug me. It doesn't look good with the red interior. The interior is very sporty and looks good otherwise.

Color combo looks good and I like the design of the dash and seats.

Looks like they borrowed some Infiniti elements.

If I was a competitor I would be a little nervous. The seats dont look cheap, and the interior is great.

So, it's a possible manual transmission on the V8?

Hardly anyone does that anymore...

There's no V8 at the moment. The Genesis coupe offers a 4 cylinder turbo (same one found in the EVO X) and a 300+hp V6.

The only thing that bugs me is the gauges and it's weird looking setup/glare guard. But besides that this thing is AWESOME for it's price, well from these pictures at least.

Hopefully the quality of the materials match the quality of the design.
