Whatever happened to
 
some of the infamous Team SR/HP/KORE cars like Random's white turbo Tiburon, Batlords turbo Tiburon that was in Fast and Furious, the twin engine Tiburon that won the Super Street shoot out, and a whole bunch of other cars that will go down in history as being some of the best or coolest Hyundais ever built?

The twin turbo one was repeatedly purchased and re-discovered to be a basket case. Probably rotting in a field somewhere.

My HP.com car I sold to some local kid. Don't know what happened to it after that.

A lot of those cars are probably either in a junk yard somewhere or wasting away in someones garage or driveway. It's sad because there were so many amazing builds and cars between 1999-2004 when this scene was at it's peak.

That's the only problem I have with losing these cars. All the rare parts are getting sent to the junkyards to never be seen again. The next owners probably don't even know how rare the parts are. I'm sure there were more than a few EVO bumpers imported. There were like a dozen triple gauge pods. About 5 RD2 EVO hoods. A few carbon hatches. A dozen adjustable cam sprockets. A dozen turbulence skirts......

These can still be found pretty regularly, but they do command nearly twice the cost of a Delta sprocket.

Dont forget the Z shark fenders, the Ram Air IM's, the Alpine Motorsports turbo and supercharger (even though both sucked bad) the genius bumper that maierapril had, and of course the CF hatch....

Just look at THIS THREAD to be reminded of some really nice builds back in the day!
