The warranty is up, great car for someone else
I have a base coupe with the 3.8 Direct Injected V6 coupled to a 8 speed automatic transmission. This car has an abundance of enough power for normal driving on the road and even some enthusiastic driving elsewhere. It's handling is really good. I was looking at the 2016 Camaro when I purchased/Leased this car. It seemed to me that the Camaro had relied on too many tech gadgets to sell their car with and forgot to focus on the car itself. The Genesis Coupe, that I have, the manufacture focused on the car - and it shows. There is more power from the direct injected V6 than the Camaro. ( I did not test drive the Mustang or Challenger) It's handling is above the average car. It is responsive when you need it to be, yet it gives you a good ride going down the road. The loudness of the exhaust is only noticeable upon acceleration, as it should be. You do not need a back up camera for the Genesis, unlike the Camaro's engineered blind spots
There are 2 areas that I have found to be of concern, Paint Quality and cost of ownership.
There was a lot of "orange peel" in the finish. It also water spots up very quickly.
The replacement parts for this vehicle are expensive. Maybe not by today's standards - but by mine.
I have had the gearshift knob, dash bezel and the driver's door panel replaced.
The a/c had a slight issue when it was new - dealer fixed it.
Was this car worth the $29,100 sticker price - NO.
Was this car a better deal than its competitors - YES (They were actually more expensive)
The Genesis Coupe has been a reliable fun car to drive for the 3 years in February
Is it a car worth having without a bumper to bumper warranty, in my opinion NO
