details? looks like it is pretty much a chop.. Look at the huge distance from the bottom of the door to the bottom of the side skirts.



i'm gonna go ahead and say that I like it but I don't know why they would re-introduce it to the lineup with all the other vehicles they have.



I'm guessing it would be sized around the same as the lantra and they have a sedan, coupe and hatch version of it. If they didn't have a lantra coupe, this would be more exciting..



I would assume they would stick with a FWD platform and hopefully even have the 1.6L GDI turbo in it from the V

Aw you got me all excited!

Yeah, it's real old and it's some car magazine's chop from the early info of the Veloster. If there was a new Tiburon, I'd like it to be an RD1 on steroids.
