Aquiles Tiffer recalls the 2010 Hyundai Genesis still being somewhat new to the scene when he first made the purchase. It was that rarity, coupled with its unique body lines, which sealed that deal for Tiffer.
“I love the fact that my car stood out because it wasn't like a Mustang or 350Z that you would see on the road every day,” he writes. When I first saw my car, I fell in love with it. It just stood out to me and it looked so beautiful.”
There’s still a few modifications to be checked-off Tiffer’s list, including the installation of front and rear sway bars, a carbon fiber driveshaft, Powered By Max sub-frame collars, stainless steel brake and clutch lines, an ATQ short shifter and Megan Racing transmission mounts.
