Codenamed BK, but often referred to as the Hyundai Mustang by Hyundai insiders, the rear-wheel-drive coupe - shown here - will eventually replace the front-wheel-drive Tiburon.

It will be known as the Genesis Coupé and we do know that it will first arrive in Asia in late 2008 or 2009. It will be in the States and Canada for the 2010 model year. A convertible version will follow.

Based on the BH platform - the Genesis sedan's - the new coupe is expected to offer an optional 4.6-liter V8 for a performance version.
