Hyundai Tiburon in black & white in China

Publishtime:2019/08/16 Views:3

Seen in my street in Beijing; a very black & white Hyundai Tiburon. Good work with eye for detail, even the mirrors are two-tone. The second generation Tiburon (aka Tuscani aka Coupe) was made from 2001 until 2008. Late in its life it was officially exported to China but sales were slow.

The original color of this great car was white, the black parts are wrapped. For when one color is too boring. We have seen it twice before in China, on a black & white Toyota Reiz and a black & white Audi S5 (plus a bonus!) The Hyundai Tiburon was available with three engines; a 105hp 1.6, a  138hp 2.0 and a 172hp 2.7 liter V6. Not sure what sits under the bonnet here but I guess it will be whitening fast.
