2007 Rear Wheel Drive Hyundai Tiburon?
 
Something doesn't seem right here. Replacing a front wheel drive car with a rear wheel drive car seems too good to be true.

"Executive Senior Vice- President, Hyun Soon Lee, responded to the press eager questions with a surprising answer. "Yes, we are developing rear-wheel drive for the next sports car,"

"According to insiders, this rear-wheel drive sports machine will become the fourth-generation Tiburon, which is set to make a global debut sometime during 2007"

Anyone find any pictures?

I know... Hyundai is buyiing GM when they go bellyup... and the Corvette is being renamed the Hyundai Tiburon... ;)

I mean Tiburon means "Shark"... right? I leave y'all to figure out the Corvette-shark relationship... :P ;)

Let's hope they didn't just swap the head and tail lights and have people driving backwards on the FWD car :roll:

The Sonata looks like the Honda Accord and the Tiburon looks like the Toyota Solara... oh wait, I think Toyota copied Hyundai on that one :lol:

So, if you want to know what the car looks like, just look around Hyundai's competitors, it's probably out there already! So perhaps the new Tiburon will look like a MR2 or something???
