Hyundai New Tiburon (Project name BK)
I dont know if this is a repost but Hyundai will bring out a RWD turbo car at last...
rumors say it will have somwhere around 230-250hp edit: more pics added
ok, I just found this out...
it is I4 2.0L turbo and 215 hp... low hp than I thought... It will have options such as brembo brakes, HID, LSD, and premium audio system... and price starting around 26K U.S. dollars IN Korea (this is NOT the price Hyundai would likely to settle with the US version) This info was from a guy who went to an exhibition for survey and evaluation of the new tiburon(named Project BK in Korea) in Korea.

****! Finally a car company thinking with their heads. If that motor is remotely close to stout, and if it comes with a lsd, AND if they can keep the price down to about 20-22k. Theyd sell a bunch of them.

I agree. I personally cant believe every car companys hasnt taken cars such as a srt4 or a mazdaspeed, made them rwd, slapped a turbo on and sold them for a tad over 20k. They would sell like hot cakes.

I like the look of that car.

Almost reminds me of an R8.

Keep the prices low and they'll do well.
