That's a good looking car, but I hear it's going to be heavy (~3500lbs) and that means slow. Kind of like the Tiburon, a good looking car that doesn't perform.

oh im sure it will perform, and be super fun.. and thats what mods are for .

but yea. its a lil over 3500 for the v6 and a lil under 3500 for the 200t.

I can't say I'm crazy about the center dash and console, looks rather plain and unappealing.

Otherwise the car looks good from the outside, especially with new wheels.

That's what my SS weighs. It felt slow until I had over 450hp to the wheels. That's going to be tough to do with those motors. Sure is nice looking though.

Nice post isthatguy.

[4doorturbo]

I would be interested in driving one! Would be a nice 2nd car.

[04COMPG]

I love the looks of the car, but the srt (since winter grade fuel) has just taken my breath away. Nothing in the world can take a car that you pay low-mid 20K for (with mods), and have wel over 300 crank hp..

If I can't find something similar; phuck IT!!!

[Adionik]

I think it's gorgeous looking...not sure about the price tag. I can't wait to see how they perform

hehe. i believe that is sitting at 425bhp, and not aggressivly tuned or anything. just a base for starters.

i believe... they will be starting at low 20's ... let me find something..

here it is..

Korean retail prices start at 23,200,000 Korean won for the base version and with full options, including the V-6 Lamda RS engine, the Coupe tops out at 33,920,000 Korean won.

so.... convert that to american dollar..

Live rates at 2008.10.19 15:52:35 UTC
23,200,000.00 KRW

=

17,392.608 USD
South Korea Won United States Dollars
1 KRW = 0.000749681 USD 1 USD = 1,333.90 KRW

and.

33,920,000.00 KRW

=

25,429.193 USD
South Korea Won United States Dollars
1 KRW = 0.000749681 USD 1 USD = 1,333.90 KRW

then you figure 2000 or so more for us model. im guessing 20k to start with a base model.. ya know.. SRT4 prices
