I hope this is true:

"Hyundai is considering a new calibration, but there are cars going on sale that incorporate this 3-second power intervention, a feature that can punish drivers at engine speeds well below redline. Some people won't notice it, but to others it could be a deal breaker in the purchase of a Genesis 3.8 coupe."

3 SECONDS!?!?!?!? DEAR GOD THAT'S AN ETERNITY WHEN YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE A QUARTER MILE AT A TIME! FUCK!
