OK so here's the question... I found some Tuscani emblems and a buddy of mine is telling me to put them in place of the regular badges on my '00 ES. Now, I thought that the Tuscani was ONLY the 2003 models but I could be wrong. Someone care to clarify this for me?

from what i understand, the Tuscani is only the 2003 models in Korea...here we call them all the Tiburon

such as the early model Tiburon is the Turbulence maybe?

i could be wrong, but this is my general idea

97-99 - Tiburon

Yeah, what KayJai said. If anything, order some Turbulence emblems from KSpec.com.

listen to what we say. don't put Tuscani stuff on an earlier generation tiburon... it just decreases the value of the car wink.gif and if I were to see it, I'd rip it off

on a side note... I'm glad you asked us before going ahead and listening to your under-educated friends. :roll:

That's exactly correct. That's for here in Korea. In the states they are all Tiburons.

I happen to like the flowing script of the "TIBURON" emblem.. why ruin it with a tuscani emblem?

I am not compleatly against rebadging cars.. my Lancia Scorpion came with the European "Montecarlo" On the rear instead of the american "scorpion" I think it sounds better.
