Here's a few pics of my last car. 2006 Tiburon SE. Came in a pretty awesome orange color and had a killer exhaust note. Was pretty slow by V6 standards, but I enjoyed the car.

I always liked Tiburons but felt the same way you did. The V6 didn't have enough power and I wished it was RWD. The Genesis Coupe is basically what I wished the Tiburon was.

Exactly my feelings. The styling on the coupe is too radical for some, but they hit the form factor on the head. RWD, turbo 4 or 300hp n/a V6... The aftermarket in Korea is already doing some interesting things to them.

The latest gen Tiburon is a great looking car, but that's about all it has going for it.

No! But I ran a 9.67 @ 71.78 at Irwindale with my spare and jack! Car looks absolutely disgusting and still has the Motorgen filming sticker on it from Fontana.

I believe my roommate and I are gonna bring out our cars.

He has a GT500. We took this pic in the middle of the Mojave desert on the way back from Vegas.

That's the 1/8th I assume? Pretty good time for a V6.

Nice GT500! I think I might have seen it at Fontana on Saturday.

Yeah - 1/8th. Meh, it's not bad, but it's not great either (compared to similar cars with similar mods). How does yours fare? Any track times yet?
