Oh yeah! The supercharging scene was pretty big for the v6. Turbo wasn’t really all that large (because it was more of a pita to install) for the i4. Still, for the v6, what good is adding another 20-30 hp with a supercharger, when you start out with 174hp? Not to mention the reliability of those cars are horrible… I had mine in the shop for as long as 3 months at a time.

Could you add any aftermarket mods though? Super chargers, Turbos etc? Did they even make them for the Tiburon?

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY Underpowered… It is so underpowered that owners of them constantly make jokes about how slow them are…

Ya, I agree, it does look like the Tiburon (which looked awesome, but was underpowered IMO).

I believe so… but the styling is ever so slightly different. Besides, I never said I didn’t like the way a Tiburon looked. I used to own one. So maybe that’s why it reminds me of one of them ;)

This is the Toyota version of that new Subaru concept you like right? The non-WRX without the turbo/super charger?

Looks like a Hyundai Tiburon if you ask me…
