All the price rumors I've heard were 2-3k more than yours ...the V6 wasn't supposed to start below $25k last time I read something about it.

More quality...nah. It's equal or less. The weight-cuts they put into this had to have turned it into a tin-can. The reviews and comparisons will reveal that, I'm sure.

Lighter, yes. Faster is debateable till they get out onto the streets. Don't jump the gun, or hold you're breath. As far as I'm concerned .1-.2 seconds isn't worth arguing over unless you're arguing on paper.

The interior is a matter of opinion. I honestly think the Genesis coupe is fugly inside and out. It looks to me like the dies melted as they installed them in the stamping plant...
