but the two-door coupe is more a korean counter to detroit's muscle stalwarts, camaro and mustang, with an eye on the g37 infiniti coupe. in terms of form, the genesis coupe takes on a truly low slung but aggressive look. like the tiburon before it, its proportions, racked stance, exaggerated haunches, and powerful curves, are right out of the contemporary japanese sports coupe textbook. glaring xenon hid headlamps spearhead the coupe's short, bulldog snout. and its fast profile wears a flowing beltline contrasted by jagged "z" character lines. 18 or 19-inch alloys, a stubby rear deck, bright exhaust tips, and available spoiler, punctuate the performance look. and to put substance to that look, the genesis coupe sports either a nicely exposed 2.0-liter turbocharged four, good for 210 horsepower and 223 pound-feet of torque, or the sedan's 3.8-liter v6, with 306 horses and 266 pound feet of torque. there is no v8. with 6-speed manual standard, the i4 can be tied to a 5-speed automatic, while the v6 auto is a 6-speed. both autos with steering wheel paddle shifters. flicking them for all t

i own a 15-year-old dodge van and old camaro not in good shape, but restorable. which one should we trade for the cash for clunkers. >> it's a well conceived program or at least it was in newspaper. how it's implemented here is yet to be seen. it was good in europe. it's somewhat vague at this moment. as i understand it, there are two levels of tax incentives that a consumer would receive. 3500 or $4,500, and that's based on the disparate difference in miles per gallon between the trade in and new vehicle which is being purchased. in tom's particular case he has two old vehicles either way. for consumers the older junkier car you have with the least value is the one you want to trade. in tom's case he has a 15-year- old dodge ram. so that has really no value. if he gets a car that gets -- i believe it's 4 miles per gallon more, and it could be six, but better mileage. he can receive $4,500 for his ram. now, the dealers must ensure that the vehicle is scratched. so that's why i would say tom, don't trade the old camaro. if it's restorable, restore the old car. the
