Family-car roots shine through in Accord Coupe
A problem from Korea
Shopping? Be sure to check out the Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 GT, too. For a few dollars more than the loaded Accord V6 tester, it offers up a limited-slip differential, Brembo brakes and more dramatic looks. It also sends more than 30 additional horsepower to the driving enthusiasts' favorite wheels - the rear ones.

The Genesis Coupe isn't as sensible, roomy or comfortable as the Accord Coupe, but as a higher-performing, more hardcore alternative with rear-wheel drive, it puts up a serious argument for your $36,000.

End of the day, Accord Coupe's surprising sensibility, as well as Honda's reputation for reliability, quality and residual value will be big draws here. Shoppers after a muscular sports coupe that's nearly as rational and level-headed as a family sedan won't likely be disappointed.
