Enjoy

Hyundai Tiburon?????

[JoshXR]

Lol, what is it ? Hyundai tibiron ?

[Pinkbits]

Why would you laugh at it? It looks neat enough.
The only problem i see is a possible copyright breach with all the ferrari pieces adorning it.
Pardon my ignorance, but is/was it a Nissan originally?

[GTBenny]

So sad really. The guy that owns this has probably had plastic surgery to look like Aneglina Jolie as well.

Benny.

[gtxb67]

looks pretty good - it would fool a lot of people with it's attention to detail

[SM1DY]

"TURNS HEADS EVERYWHERE YOU GO"

Because people can't bear to look at it

It's good to see Ferrari expanding and trying to recapture the V6 market

[IEAT8S]

I seen it aswell on car sales. Not my cup of tea...

[Boza]

whats its based on I wonder you need a donor with similar proportions

[2011G6E]

The Tiburon is a damn good car!

I love Clarksons comment on Top Gear when this model was released that some motoring journalists at the time had no complaint with the handling or the car itself, but were complaining about the styling, saying it was "too much like a Ferrari".
Clarksons immortal come-back was "I'm sorry...you're complaining because your cheap Hyundai coupe looks too much like a Ferrari?? That's like complaining because your wife looks too much like Uma Thurmon..."

[Majestic]

he certainly has gone to a lot of effort with his ferrari fetish lol and he would fool a lot of women with it hahahaha

I'd rather build a car that can blow the doors off a real ferrari

[SM1DY]

What model Ferrari is it meant to be replicating??? If anything, you'd have more luck trying to pass it off as an MP4-12C

[graham_h]

ZF box, Big brakes, V6 motor...... buy it and break it for parts ?!?
Fools Ferrari owners my ***..... wouldn't fool my 5yr old
Massive effort though....all wasted IMO

[GT-E]

You have to admit, he has done a good job for a clone.
For $22k it is not a bad custom, but it is still a clone try hard.
I am sure some cashed up P plater will buy it.

Benny.

You never built models when you were young?


Its done quite well, most seem to come undone in a few areas, but this blurrs whats ferrari and whats not....


I'd have it...but it needs to be painted rosso corsa

[No.6]

What makes it lame is all the ferrari badging.

Take off the ferrari badging and it doesnt look half bad.

[nstg8a]

i like it,
dont see it being different to a gt40 kit car or cobra kit car,

i wouldnt pay 22k but if i was looking for a nice cruiser and it was priced a bit better id look at it.

haters gonna hate.

[Antwon]

sorry to be the hater, but imo it doesnt look anything like a Ferrari? It looks like a Hyundai tiburon with a lot of Ferrari badges slapped on. Also dont think their big brakes either, just the clip on fake brembos painted yellow?

[buggo]

I don't really see what's been done other than ebay brake covers, a stereo with a ferrari logo, some tips and heaps of ferrari badges.
He'd be better off losing the badges and sell it as a nice tiburon. It looks nothing like a ferrari, should have atleast got some quad circle tail lights.

[351capri]

hey, "horses for courses". neat enough job!

[Marquis 351]

Like a big pink pair of furry fluffy socks...... Nice but you wouldnt wear em!!!!

[Bent8]

Good effort there but the Ferrari badges ruin it...

I agree.

If this fools real Ferrari enthusiasts then they mustn't be much of an enthusiast in the first place. It looks nothing like a Ferrari in any way shape or form.

How embarrassed would you be driving in a fake Ferrai ripoff. People would just laugh at you everywhere you go, especially when its a Hyundai.

[Nikked]

I think you have your cars mixed up...ferraris are the ones catching on fire of late...

[Nikked]

I remember in Street Machine some bloke built a 166s (IIRC) out of a torana...

[flappist]

Yeh it is such an evil fake.

Like XT GY utes or any GT replica or any XR86T with FPV bits or AUs with T series bits or GT40 kits or Cobra kits or V8 Cortinas etc. etc. etc. ad nauseum

There are so many narrow minds on this forum.....

[Danny]

People look at it, it turns heads, people stop to take photographs!?? Please..

PEOPLE ONLY DO THIS BECAUSE THIS CAR IS A JOKE AND THEY CANNOT BELEIEVE WHAT THEY ARE SEEING!!!!!

What a bottom feeding moron. That is pathetic, excuse me for bein a hater, but NO one looks at this car because they are impressed or think it is a Ferrari, they look at it because it is just fail from the pathetic chinese TV Satnav VCD copy, to the hideous late 90's tach and speedo, or the plastic starter button and mannettino.

I wish you could comment on his ad or email this goofus. I'd love to know what his IQ is. Friggin Spacker.

EDIT Flappist get over it mate, putting ford parts on a ford whilst not the most pure thing to do, IS NOT the same level of patheticism. He may as well have put a Bugatti Veyron badge on a 1989 Baby blue Holden Nova.

For christs sake!
