This 1997 Hyundai Tiburon for sale is a one-of-a-kind head turner! I hate to see it go, but I'm moving and could use the extra cash. This car was purchased from down south and has *never* been in the snow. I got it last year and kept it in the garage over the winter. Here's some of the many highlights (But I'm sure I'm forgetting some):
- Only 67,000 miles!
- Custom chameleon paint job
- Body Kit
- Custom rims (All 4 of them are the 5 point design now, a couple older pics show different rear wheels)
- Eibach lowering springs
- Painted calipers
- NOS tanks and setup including switches on the center console (Not hooked up at the moment, can't sell it with it enabled)
- TV screen in the steering wheel (With chameleon paint on the middle of the steering wheel. TV also not hooked up for the same reason)
- Playstation 2 video game system hooked up in the back
- Polk audio speakers replacing the factory speakers
- Custom trunk setup with 2 15" Kickers & Amp
- Bolted-on roll cage
- Gauges on the drivers side
- Small fire extinguisher on the passenger side
- Custom leather seats
- Short throw shift
- Stage 2 clutch
- Cold air intake
- Full exhaust system (Purrs like a kitten)
- A button to make the rear lights actually come out from the car about 12". Very unique & cool!
- Custom painted chameleon dash
- Kenwood cd player that also changes colors
Like I said, there's probably a few things I'm forgetting as well. The previous owner said this did the 1/8th mile in 8.6 seconds, so it's quite snappy! I had this delivered to me from down south and it handled the trip up just fine. You certainly won't have any problems figuring out which car is yours in the parking lot!
As for "problems", there isn't too much. The handle for the glove box is loose, but this could probably be fixed pretty easily. Also, the subs don't seem to be all that loud. Might just need the gain turned up or some wire needs to be tightened. Again, my guess is it's a fairly easy fix. The cd player is a bit of a tight fit so it require a little tug to open it, but it still works just fine.
Also, it doesn't have power steering. This isn't a "problem" and is actually intentional. Many people have removed power steering for low tuner cars like this because it gives you more responsiveness and helps a bit with cornering. Once the car is over 10mph or so, you can barely tell (As in, it's plenty easy to turn the wheel), but it's still more responsive.
Asking $6,500, but I'm open to offers. Please make them reasonable, this is a unique car with very low miles on it.

Hyundai Genesis Coupe spotted with rumors of a V8 underhood
Wed, Feb 11 2015Our spy shooters have captured a Hyundai Genesis Coupe mule testing in Sweden. This is merely the current body cut-and-pasted to fit new internals, so don't be disappointed by its looks; we're looking forward to inspiration from the HCD-9 and perhaps grand touring inclinations on the production car whenever it appears. The photographers said they noticed the hood's been modified, perhaps to clear the 5.0-liter V8 from the Genesis sedan. That engine would be part of the plan to push further upscale said to be planned for the Genesis Coupe, along with the fender arch cutouts on this mule that push the wheels to the corners for a longer wheelbase that will make more room for passengers. Rumor has been that the next car will do a much better job of swallowing four adults. The company's HTRAC all-wheel drive is expected to be an option, Hyundai having said five years ago that the feature is being engineered into the Genesis family platform. A reveal probably won't come until sometime in 2016.
2015 will be the biggest year ever for cars at CES
Fri, Jan 2 2015Like the SEMA Show, major automakers are paying increasing attention to the CES, with 2015 expected to be one of the most auto focused yet. Ford, Volkswagen, Toyota, General Motors, Hyundai, Mazda, Audi, BMW and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will all be in attendance when CES 2015 kicks off next week, taking up a record-breaking 165,000 square feet of space at the Las Vegas Convention Center. "We've come a long way from a single car on a carpet," Ford's Alan Hall told Bloomberg. Unlike SEMA, or a more traditional auto show, like the upcoming festivities in Detroit, CES doesn't necessarily focus on entire cars or the way they perform, but on the way our technology will interact with vehicles, and in how those vehicles will deliver information to drivers. "CES has become a major launch point for a lot of the big automakers," IHS tech analyst Mark Boyadjis told Bloomberg. "CES is a way for them to get on a global stage for technology." As for what kind of wares automakers will trot out in Las Vegas, we already know that BMW will show off an autonomous i3 electric car that can navigate its way through a multistory car park and can be hailed via a smartwatch app. According to Bloomberg, Hyundai will show off its own smartwatch app for the Genesis sedan, while Audi and Mercedes-Benz will show off autonomous vehicles next week. Automakers won't be the only companies looking to capitalize on CES. Tech firms, like chipmaker Nvidia, are becoming increasingly involved in the automotive game and will be in town showing their wares off to OEMs. "Two years ago, our booth would have been filled with PCs and people playing video games," Danny Shapiro, Nvidia's senior director for automotive business, told Bloomberg. "This year we made a strategic decision to shift the focus of the booth on automotive and de-prioritize some of the other things." Needless to say, you can expect to see a lot of news out of Las Vegas come next week. Stay tuned.

Hyundai to launch European performance sub-brand
Tue, 15 Oct 2013Hyundai has quickly emerged from the sidelines as one of the biggest players in the industry, outselling rivals left, right and center. Still, a dedicated performance division is still something that separates it from the big boys. Now, according to the latest reports, that's just what it's getting.
After setting up its own Nürburgring test center and gearing up to launch its assault on the World Rally Championship, the next step in the ramping up of Hyundai's performance credentials - in Europe, especially - will reportedly be to set up its own performance division along the lines of what Nissan has done with Nismo.
The first product in Hyundai's new European performance portfolio is expected to be a version of the next i20 hatchback that's set to launch in 2015. That in turn will be used as the basis for the company's next WRC challenger, to replace the upcoming model, pictured above undergoing testing. After that it's anyone's guess, but performance versions of the Veloster, Genesis Coupe and Elantra could be in the cards.
