Spyshots: Hyundai New Tiburon (Genesis?)

[davidv00]

The new Hyundai Tiburon or possibly, the Hyundai Genesis was spied in Korea recently, FR, longitudinal engine is in but specs are unconfirmed. Pictures below illustrates that the Tiburon/Genesis will be similar to the 350z in size wise.

Below are the list of speculated quotes:

Korean domestic version will have a 2.0 liter turbo engine with 215hp for base model and modified lambda 3.8 V6 with around 280hp engine.

- This Hyundai's first RWD coupe will not be the new generation Tiburon.
- Much larger than current Tiburon, roughly the size of an infinity G35 coupe.
- Possible turbo or supercharger on 3.8 V6, not much information for the V6 version yet, but Hyundai said it will have similar performance to the G35 coupe.
- It will be launched in Korea on March 2008.
- Engine start button (blue).
- Smart key system.
- 19 inch wheels, LSD, Brembo brakes are optional.
- Larger interior volume, smaller trunk size.

i think it looks real sweet, maybe Hyundai might make it affordable? well at least for a 40year old company, this looks to be a really good product..

how i wish proton could come up with cars like this... longitudinal mounted engine with RWD..... Hyundai and Proton are only 17years old apart.
