What the crap. Glad you taught him a lesson. And of course he did the famous ricer fly by at the end.

A Hyundai???
A tuner Hyundai with an aftermarket turbo kit tried to race me 
I started in 2nd while we rolled up to a light that went to green and I could hear his turbo blow-off for about 2 seconds, hit 3rd for a couple seconds and realized I was wasting my gas and let off. 
The funny thing is it took him a good few seconds to catch up to me and he thought he was still racing. 
I got to start taking my Go Pro HD camera with me!

I dunno if your car is stock but the new Genesis V6's are pretty quick. 300bhp. If that was turbo'd you could have a 400hp car easily. The larger Genesis's even come with 400-480hp V8's, but they're heavier.
Can't underestimate SOME of the little ricebangers these days.
