Guess a V6 turbo would be good. I was just looking for something to sway my desision for when the new camero comes out supposedly in 09. My next cars either going to be the new tib or the camaro. Right now I'm more swaying for the camaro. I've already had one Ford mustang 5.0GT, and two tiburons, I'm thinking another american car is in order. I do miss the rear wheel drive, it will give me something more to learn and fun to play around with. Will always love the tibs though, why o why did my last have to be stolen.

"Hyundai is seriously considering building a convertible version of its popular Tiburon coupe, according to John Krafcik, Hyundai’s North American vice president of product development and strategic planning. In an interview with The Car Connection Krafcik said a next-generation Tiburon coupe is also under development, with its sights set further upmarket. “Imagine an Infiniti G; this is where it will go,” Krafcik said. He also indicated the automaker is working on a “Rear-Wheel-Drive Premium Car” positioned above the Azera. While the automaker has not decided if it will sell the sedan in the United States, Krafcik said it could compete with the Nissan Maxima or even low-end Lexus models. "

^^Those wheels look like they came off from a fiat stilo abarth.^^
^^These side grills remind me of an Aston Martin. Not that that's a bad thing.^^
But I always like those from the first gk. Looked the most like from a shark.
I like the way the front end is looking so far, wish hyundai release some pictures of the car soon...

The front ends now looking more like a cougar to me, I have to stop looking at this 07 model. Still liked more of the 03 models and styling. So much for having some cool gills on the front fenders. The chrome 03's were the best, especially with some chrome clear cornered headlamps..

Wow, they murdered the GK.
The designers/engineers must have had a boardroom meeting that consisted of this:
-Designer # 1 - "Well, im stumped, ..."
Designer # 2- "Hey guys I got an idea!!, lets slap on some Mercury Cougar headlights, and make a gay front grill, and call it a day?!!
Whata ya say?"
*Slow cap insues*
That thing looks like ass.

I don't really see too much of a difference...It looks like they made the hood completely flat (no recession in the center) and changed the headlights. That grill actually resembles the one from the 05 quite a bit IMO.

I would buy the new concept car HCD8,
but that thing? No way would I pull my wallet out!!!.
That long ass grill is ugly and useless. The Rad is only so big so why the huge grill?
Just looks like a frankenstein to me.
