My 2003 Hyundai Tiburon GT. Mostly because it is the car that actually got me interested in working on cars since I had to replace a shit load of stuff on it, but it looked pretty damn good when I got done with it

5 spd manual, v6 with a good sounding exhaust, what's not to love? In fact I wouldn't mind getting an 07-08 for my next car maybe..

EDIT: I sold this car a year ago, I have an RSX now.

Looks like a Bentley Continental and a Ferrari F430 had a child and named it "Hyundai".

Something like that. I think it has a nice looking stance to it.

Confession: I double take anytime I see one just because they look so good. Yours would make me triple take. If they were rwd, they'd be legendary.

I sold it to a kid in Kzoo, it's probably destroyed by now.

I've always like these, but I don't understand why they went through the trouble of mounting the engine longitudinally, though make it FWD.

Making it rwd wouldn't appeal to as many people I don't think. It wasn't a 'sports' car it was just a sporty-looking coupe that didn't have much power.

Clearly it didn't work out, because it was replaced with a RWD coupe.

Never heard of it. Hyundai seem to have a different range on my side of the pond.

It worked out well enough, but I don't really like the styling of the Genesis as much.

Yours is my favorite style Tiburon. The one before was way too wild and the one after it looks kinda plain

I've seen plenty of Coupés running around and they are not what I call big cars but your car has got some serious presence, if I ever want cosmetic modification advice I'll be looking for you.

I tried to keep mine classy looking while modifying it, I didn't want it to look loud and obnoxious.
