Wow, fun to drive AND room for your track tires.  What's not to like?   Cheesy

Looks like a fun ride Grin, I assume it will go in CS?

I'm thinking the 350HP Hyundai Genesis V6 in HS would be a great car to run, but it does weight in at over 3300 lbs.

Here's a good video on it.  I like the Subaru body better than the Toyota/Scion version.

 Huh? I'm under the impression that the current V6 is in HS... Is that not correct?

The Genesis V6 coupe is in DS. Genesis Turbo 4 coupe is in GS.

I guess locally that IS where the sedan would run, since it isn't formally classed. Thought when we classed the coupe we classed them all as "Genesis" not "Genesis (Coupe)". As soon as someone asks for us to officially class the sedan, it will not go to HS, Wink

Speaking of miatas, just came across these photos of a very pretty one for sale.
(Good thing my garage is already full.  : )
