The new car will basically be a poor man's Lexus RC. Not interested.

Plus, Hyundai would beef up the trans, diff, and probably the chassis for durability so your 2700lb base Genesis Coupe would weigh close to 3000 lbs with the 3.8 V6. I just think that there's not a big enough market for what you're wanting, that's why there isn't a FRS/BRZ STi on sale right now with a 274hp turbo, and a direct competitor for it from another company.
I don't disagree with anything you're saying. Doesnt make me want it any less! My problem with the Frisbee twins is I don't fit well. And since it would have to be a DD, interior comfort is high on my list.
In reply to Bobzilla: Ah, yes, the limitations on the small FR performance car (interior space). You can't even fit in your ideal Genesis Coupe! 
Plus, you could put a supercharger or turbocharger on the 3.8 Genesis Coupe. 
I just remembered that the 370Z/G37 is theoretically a direct competitor to the Genesis Coupe.

Yeah, it's still why the GC is still on my potential list of Forte Replacements
