is there such a car?
this guy at work has a car called a "Tuscan" also says 2.5 Elisa or 2.7 Elisa, kinda looks like a tiburon but with different badging and bodystyling and these T's all over the car and on the 17'' rims. i was like, what kinda car is that, i always see it.
Those things are expensive too...

edit: besides if he says it said Tuscan well that's the only thing it could be.....unless he's being a ricer and badging something else
Yup, i'm an A$$hole.

Rep Power: 328 Why wouldnt it be that car? Just because its 100g's doesnt mean anything...I see at least 1 or 2 S class mercedes a day, those are around 100g's as well...plenty of them kicking around in nicer areas.

Ive seen a TVR tuscan before in person. It's true that TVR doesnt ship cars to the US, but Nissan doesnt ship the skyline to the US either, yet I've seen them in person all the time.
Nothing works better than a Chris except a Honda.

Skylines aren't all that rare, but they're not seen on the streets everyday. Car shows everyonce in a while you're almost sure to see at least one and multiple cars that want to be a skyline.

Rep Power: 0 the first gen tiburon that the US got was also called the tiburon in Korea
the second gen tiburon that the US got was called the turbulence in Korea
the third (present) gen tiburon in the US is called the tuscani in Korea

yes they do ship the tvr tuscan to the us...it's just that you have to actually buy 3 of them instead of just one so that the us can do the road testing on two of them ending both of those with the crash tests and then the last one for modifying to us standards and your personal enjoyment....now for the skyline....they do ship those to the us as well....theres some place in northern cali that does it for 77 g's you can get an R34 but it's, once again like the tuscan, tuned down to us standards...

Rep Power: 0 I had a friend in high school with a tiburon. HE replaced the tiburon badging with the tuscani badging. That's what they call it in Korea. It's like people replacing the Acura RSX badging with Integra badging, since the RSX is called the Honda Integra in Japan.
