Scoupe this one up

Do you remember the Scoupe?  This was Hyundai’s first coupe for the US market.  We don’t know too much more than that.
This one has the right transmission, but it may not be a turbo.  We can’t tell due to the euro-style debadging it received. Surely the next owner can purchase replacement decals from one of the many Scoupe restoration specialists out there.

This wasn’t a bad looking car, it’s just the the brand hadn’t earned respect yet.

Here’s the debadging…very Germanic!

Interior is not bad.  The seller was wise to disconnect the shoulder belts from the mice, but we shall not be fooled!

Up for sale is a 1993 Hyundai Scoupe. It has been sitting in my back yard now for about 10 years. The car still runs and drives great. No engine problems no tranny problems. The air conditioning works but it has a hole in one of the lines. The compressor and everything else works fine. The heater works. The interior is in very good shape, no rips no tears. The only thing wrong with the insides is the top of the dash. The sun got to it as you can see in the pictures. The rear bumper has a crack running through it. The front bumper has a few small cracks and you can see those in the pics as well. The paint on the outside is faded. The body is straight. The rear tires are good the front ones need to be replaced. I’m selling this as is. It will pass smog I just put a new cat on it. I have never has a problem with this car. I purchased it with 50 thousand miles on it. I changed the oil every 3000 miles and had it serviced at the same time. Its great on gas mileage. It would not take much mostly just some TLC and it would be a great little car. Very dependable. After 10 years of sitting I put a charger on the battery and it started up with no problem. I was kind of shocked. I thought it would run a little rough after all that time but I drove it and it ran as well as ever. The battery is no good though. After I drove it and turned it off the battery was dead. I don’t want to sell it but I need the money right now. The kellie blue book on this car with the mileage in fair condition is $1145.00. This car has no rust and as far as registering it, it should only cost you around $50.00. After 10 years it will not be in the DMV computers. The last car I had which was a geo and it had sat about the same amount of time cost me 45 dollars to register it. You can see the plate on the car so you can check to see what the registration would cost. There is a reserve but it is less than the low blue book.
