I don't know man, comparing a rally car to a standard production car is like comparing a Nascar to a standard production. Rally cars are generally right around 300hp. In WRC (where the Tiburon isn't) they're limited to 2.0 litre engines roughly 300hp and generally have about 400+ft pounds of torque. Can you imagine 0-60 in like 4 seconds, in the dirt. That certainly isn't how they come off the floor and it takes quite a bit of cake to get them there. For instance Prodrive will sell you a used rally car for about half a million dollars. There just doesn't seem to be alot of aftermarket products for the tiburon ....but yeah the seats are blue....but the dash/console and steering wheel are nice.
