So, I was checking my e-mail today and got an invite via autobytel for the Genesis Coupe Adrenlanie Tour. I was just wondering if anyone has gone to this, so I can get an idea of whats going to happen. I know its supposed to be about 1 1/2 hours driving a Genesis. Other than that I have no idea. Anyone?
BTW upcoming in Houston, DFW, Chicago, St. Loius, Phoenix, and LA. Maybe some wants to go?

I would think that the V6 would be more fun out of the box, but the turbo just has to have so much more potential...I mean, doesn't the same engine in the Evo make 291 horsepower? Just seems like it's really detuned from the factory.

Yes the turbo is the same set-up as the evo. They de tuned it to leave room for guys like us who like to play around with the vehicles. I think with the proper tuning you can get more power than what the v6 puts out (306hp/manual)
