I wish the Azera were RWD, but the Tiburon would also benefit tremendously
from RWD. In fact, I was hoping to see the Tib go to AWD.

AWD would make sense. Front drive makes sense. Rear drive on a car
that size will be unblanced with too much weight on the front, non
drive, wheels. OTOH and rear drive on a large sedan would makes sense
if they want to give it a tow spec.

Re: Are the Koreans riding too high?
 

maybe and maybe not. the rise of FWD "sports" (sporty) cars are rising.
the Tiburon could conceivably compete with quite a bit of other RWD cars out
there...(dare I say the 'stang, charger, that small roadster beamer x3
something.. maybe....)
IMO-Id never buy a FWD sports/sporty car EVER. I'm old school and RWD is
what I've always driven .
My Sonata is my first FWD car, still love it though..:)
