This originally built in 2002 as a test bed. It was converted from front wheel drive to AWD with tiptronic transmission. It has rear wheel independant suspension with transverse shocks. The chassis was built almost from scratch. There is much speculation that this concept led to the current generation RWD turbo charged Genesis.

"2003 Hyundai Tiburon for 2002 SEMA. This was our biggest and most unique project, the conversion of a front wheel drive V6 into a turbocharged 4WD rally concept. Your execution of the conversion was top notch as was the fabrication and show preparation. In spite of a very tight schedule all of the details came together and Hyundai awarded us the Best Engineered Vehicle Award."
