Seriously, it’s amazing how far Hyundai has come.

I don’t know, I must be broken, but I actually liked all revisions of the Tiburon...never thought they were amazing looking, but I never thought they were bad.

B-but twin engine!

A long time ago during a time called “The 90’s”, a challenge was put out by SportCompact Car Magazine. To answer this call, Mattech Motorsports started with a Hyundai Tiburon... and then added in extra oomph by way of a second engine.

Up front sits a turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces over 300 horsepower. In the rear you’ll find another turbocharged four-cylinder engine also producing over 300 horsepower. The resulting total power output is easy to figure out even if you’re terrible at math. What the team now had was a Tiburon that could put down over 600 horsepower by way of its front and rear wheels.

In the quarter mile, the two-hearted Tiburon would ring the bell with a time of 10.96 seconds. The real fun would happen at much slower speeds though, as the driver could operate the two transmissions independently. Put one engine in reverse, the other in Drive, and mash the throttle. The resulting donuts produced are so tight that Dunkin is thinking about a lawsuit.

Kinja'd!!!

This maybe just my opinion but I think later generations looked worse. It’s like they wanted to fit into what was seen as the future during short time frame of the early 2000’s.

I actually liked the Tiburon, even the weird first generation. They must not have been very sturdy cars though, because I rarely see them on the road anymore.

I’ve seen that, and possibly fapped to it. Still doesn’t make it pretty.
