SEMA: Rhys Millen's Hyundai Genesis Coupe Racer

RMS Hyundai Genesis Coupe SEMA 2008The wraps are off from Rhys Millen Racing's 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe as the concept was officially revealed today at the SEMA show. The RMR-designed "Art of Speed" is essentially a stripped out, track-ready version of the Genesis Coupe with custom components on the exterior, a radically altered racing-spec interior and some serious performance enhancements from under the hood. The RMR Genesis Coupe is powered by the entry-level model's 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine enhanced by a Turbonetics turbocharger, wastegate and blow-off valve. RMR did not release any output figures but in standard form, the 2.0L turbo engine delivers an estimated 210HP on regular unleaded and 220HP on premium.

The RMR Genesis Coupe sports a silver and blue paint scheme and a lightweight RMR dry carbon fiber wide body kit, functional hood scoop and an APR GTC-500 carbon-fiber wing.

RMR also added SSR Type-F competition lightweight wheels and Bridgestone Potenza racing slicks that are partnered with the factory Brembo brake system. Inside, the Genesis Coupe's interior has been transformed into a racing cockpit with a Sparco steering wheel and seat, eight-point roll cage and a RMR carbon fiber dash.
