This car is nice for the total appearance exterior/interior this car is my favorite. The Rhys Miilen car is awesome but its more of a race car. I liked the camo car from the concept but seeing it in person I was a little underwhelmed by it. The interior was plain compared to the HKS car. The RIDES sedan car was really sweet though hi tech to the extreme.

I don't think HKS cracked the ECU as they had one of their F-Con units on the car which is basically a just a piggyback. If yer talk'n about a flasher there is one company out there who is working on one in the states and another in Korea that has cracked that.
Yeah its a very nice car. It's even better to see it in person.

Yeh i should of choose my words better, i was refering to their fcon unit tuning the ecu. The coupe is on a canbus setup so even a piggyback being able to tune the ecu is still an accomplishment.
Happen to be able to divulge who has the "flashing" ability in the US

FconVpro is fine stand alone replacement ecu
We tried to make something close, but it will cost millions of dollars to make them.
The picture shown must be Fcon silver pro used in Japan and may now sell in USA. Fcon Vpro wasn't successful due to limited authorized pro dealers to do the job only. Only dealer has "key lock" to run their software.
I hope they have ones for customer now.

It doesn't state anything about the Fcon IS requiring the pro tuning software from pro dealers so I think it is customer adjustable. I'd assume this even more since its a piggyback setup vs. stand along like the vpro. I do not need a stand alone so a flash or piggyback is more then enough for me. the new canbus systems are really nice but a tough nut to crack on some cars, can't wait to see what the aftermarket comes out with.

Thanks sabbasaun. We're cleaning up some pictures right now of the Genesis Coupe display. I'll post all of them in one article, so keep an eye out for that post if you're interested.

The more I look at this car the more I like it, even though I liked it at 1st site. If the body kit isn't rediculously priced, I might just get it. I even like the rear spoiler & believe I read that it was a factory part, if I'm wrong would someone correct me.

This reminds me I've got some shots of a spoiler that was on display from the SEMA show and also some factory available audio upgrades. I'll post those up later tonight.

I have lots of video I took at sema I still have to put up. But my external hard drive broke when I was digitizing the footage so I have to do it again on my new hard drive. It will be up sometime.
i dunno... they can be quite expensive... ~$3K for a full kit... rather put that into performance mods, wouldnt you?
oh and the factory spoiler = fail :stab:

Not if the full kit includes hood, deck lid, fenders & rockers w/everything in CF. I plan on spending 4 grand on CF panels probably anyway.
