LOL... it's not even the most beautiful Hyundai Genesis. The sedan takes that award easily (Even though it's a blatant ripoff of other cars, but let's not go there.)

I have as much faith in the opinion of chinese automotive enthusiasts as I did in George Bush. I would trust them as far as I could kick them.
I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder... but damn can we get a clue over here

Saw one in real life, had about 3 min to stare at it before the light turned green looked at it 2x because of all the hype in car chat then i spent the next 2minutes and 40sec checking out a 2nd Gen GS in front of me. The Gens. coupe looked sooo good on the internet and looks so eh boring in real life.

A Car & Driver official said, “Genesis Coupe will be Hyundai Motor’s one of weapons to tap into the high-end car market,” and added, “Genesis Coupe, of which both the interior and exterior were made by Hyundai’s unique designs, boasts its particularly delicate and dynamic exterior and gives mobility through the design as well.”

can anyone explain to me in regular english what this means? it sounds like bull**** to me. i absolutely hate it when automotive journalists add value words in their review. it might make the review sound all important and emotionally charged, but gives absolutely no information about anything. its almost as bad as C&D america saying bmw handling is passionate and the steering wheel has soul.

I don't know what the Chinese C&D was thinking, but none of the models chosen should be regarded as "most beautiful."
China has long stopped being "Communist" (not that there was ever a truly Communist country) and is pretty much a Fascist state nowadays.

well to be honest can we really fault china c&d? just look at all the crap coming out of their domestic auto makers. only the ripoffs are decent looking because...well they are ripoffs of nice looking cars. i cant say much for chinese tastes in the automotive industry. mirror tints are really popular. anything chrome is all the rage. so for them to say the gencoupe is the most beautiful is a sign hyundai failed.
