Worst Car- The Tiburon
Is it me or does everyone in a Tiburon drive like idiots. I actually never minded them and liked that Hundai improves its Hundai with every new gen model that comes out. Today and on a couple of other occasions I have had plenty of tiburons rev there engines, tailgate, or try to test any car i am in. I had one guy pull up and tell me that hundai copied the rx8 with the front vents.

Copy or not, we'd never find out unless we interrogate the designer. But no one has said the copy must be the worst one. Challenge him to a race around the Grand Canyons, or some winding road.

I wonder if that same concept, with the all wheel drive 2 engine tiburon could be put into the 8?
2 Renesis engines turbo'd, eliminating the trunk and fabricating the necessary parts. could it be done?

Not start a S*&T storm, but I currently own:
1988 Mazda RX-7 Convertible Turbo II Swap.
2006 Honda S2000
2005 Dodge Neon SRT-4
I'm trying to find the perfect '05 GT 6-Speed 8 as we speak to replace the Neon as daily driver duty.
I'm currently trying to sell the "POS" Neon, as I'm tired of it. But I will point out that it runs 11's and I drive it everyday. I'm not saying it's the greatest car EVER or anything, but it does what it does extremely well. I've never seen a street/daily driven 8 do this:

Looks pretty tame without the Mickey Thompsons and Sponsor graphics doesn't? I love rolling up on new Vettes (especially ZO6) and making them say hmmmm.....

You're right about burning the front wheels. If I ever see an 8 doing that, something evil this way comes...
But you know what I mean.
I don't know what I want to do with the 8 yet, as I haven't gotten one yet, but I'm sure it won't be too extreme.
