I'm undecided on what I think of the car. I have done 0 research on it. If it's boosted and easily modifiable, then sweet...if it's and NA 6...meh

I haven't done any research on this car until I saw this thread. One site claimed a v8. Haven't seen anything about a 4 banger turbo. If it does have a 4 banger turbo I'm pretty it'll have 4b11.

Yes, as I understand it, the Genesis will be available with a 300 HP V-6 or an in-line turbo 4 cyl. And the 4 banger is basically the same motor as in the new Ralliart.

Now, my questions is, will the longitudinal X motor be running on the same Mitsu ECU? Will some or all of the mods for the EVO X and Ralliart easily transfer to the Genesis?

Buschur already has the Genesis listed on their web site as a supported car model. "Coming Soon" I think we need to hear from big Dave on this one.

Buschur Racing dot com

WOOT! WOOT!

If my old memory is still any good, this will be the first 4 cyl rear wheel drive turbo car sold in the US since the '85-89 Merkur XR4Ti. Oops, now I'm showing my age.

Gotta give it up for a proper platform for a tuner car from Hyundai (sorry tiburon), and lets not forget Mad Skillz Millen! Rumors say that he might be piloting the Genesis now instead of the Solstice since GM ducked out of Formula Drift. Give Rhys anything to drive, and he'll show you how it's done!

Rhys Millen is not worth mentioning. The guy is the kinda tool you don't want in your toolbox.

E8,E9 > Genesis
