Autoblog Post 2009 Hyundai Tiburon

It's great to finally see the Tiburon that I've been hearing so much about over the past few months. Hyundai's new Genesis platform is underpinning the sleek new skin. From the start you see Infiniti G37 styling ques in the rear and overall all shape. Is Hyundai looking to take the Tiburon a little more upmarket?

Autoblog reports that Hyundai wants to go up against Ford's Mustang. Though, I'm not sure if customers shopping for a Mustang are the same one looking at the Tiburon. I envision this coupe more in line with Nissans Altima Coupe or Honda's Accord Coupe. And from prelimenary reports the new Tiburon want be lacking in the engine department, offering a 2.0L turbo producing 215HP and 217 ft-lbs of torque, or a 3.8LV6 with 300HP and 280 ft-lbs. That easily would out do any of it's competitors base and optional engines.
