AutoBlog Previews Green Genesis Coupe, Falls in Love

Looks like AutoBlog was able to get their hands on a Lime Rock Green Genesis Coupe before it officially went on sale, and if the short preview as anything telling, they love it! Click here for the jump.

While on the track at Willow Springs, we were able to unchain the frenetic little devil that the Genesis Coupe keeps leashed around town. The steering wheel is the perfect size and provides plenty of feedback. The exhaust note, less than inspiring when you’re nice to the car, finds its bellow when you stomp on the gas and let the revs climb. The brakes will keep up the good work for lap after lap after lap. The handling will even make a few other cars take note -– there’s no “in it’s price bracket” caveat here – and its rear-wheel-drive reflexes are nicely tuned. It is easy to get quick in the Genesis Coupe, and once there, it’s pretty easy to stay quick.
