2010 Audi S5 Coupe Review

audio  rs5 2010 Audi  S5 Coupe Review

The Audi S5 coupe has got that large range of colors that widens the scope of selecting the color one like. From the seats to the exterior it is amazingly superb and compact without forgetting the sound systems that will dissipate that music to the digital flavor and touch. The speakers are nice and produce uninterrupted music or sound that is of high quality the tweeters are doing a fabulous job in sieving sound quality

The car has good engine that produces enough power and torque that is just more that enough for the power gargets installed in the car. The engine produces a good roar that will alert motorists that a king of the road is on the way. That roar also tells one that Audi S5 is a speed car that likes its speed. If you do not look at the speedometer you might just be doing way above the recommended speed…just kidding. But it is a fast car that will give any other speedy car a chase for its money.

Fresh start for Hyundai with its Genesis Coupe

Hyundai Genesis Coupe

The new unveiled Hyundai Genesis Coupe concept is a forerunner to the forthcoming production car. Although being allocated as a concept, and sporting a special orange and black paint job and big 20-inch wheels, the Hyundai Genesis Coupe is virtually ready produced! Its rear wheel drive platform is shared with the 5 Series sized Genesis saloon, giving it the same mechanical layout as its key competitors, Ford Mustang, Nissan 350Z and Infiniti G37.

Although longitudinal engine and rear wheel drive set the coupe apart from its smaller Genesis saloon stable-mate, the Coupe is an unquestionably very nice vehicle, with a low bonnet, long wheelbase and promising sporting drive. There are shades of Lexus and Infiniti about the car, but that’s certainly no bad thing. The only interruption of the clean lines comes from a kink in the beltline behind the rear doors.

Hyundai is doing huge effort into making Genesis Coupe a good drive. The Genesis platform features a multilink rear suspension and the Car will come with a limited slip differential to avoid uncouth cornering behavior.

Genesis Coupe will be powered by a tuned version of the 3.8litre V6 from the Veracruz, producing 300Bhp to reach 100km/h in about six seconds with a top speed of 235km/h. The engine line up is likely to include a 2litre 215bhp turbo, with Hyundai’s Tau V8 a possibility for a top performance variant after its initial launch.

The size, power and price of Genesis Coupe place it clearly above the existing coupe, which will remain as part of the Hyundai lineup.
