And not looking like what you'd expect:

RMR Hyundai Genesis RM580, a 675bhp Le Mans-style racer (http://www.topgear.com/UK/car-news/hyundai-pikes-peak-2010-04-20)

I want to see it in motion. First impression = scrubbing bubble.

I like the Hyundai. Reminds me of the Lola Coupe LMP.

Active differentials and active rear wing. No spec series here! :)

Still waiting for Dando's comment on the mirrors that will never work. ;)

Every article seems to throw "LeMans-style prototype" in the mix, but it's actually a tube-frame PalmerSport sports racer chassis (http://blogs.insideline.com/straightline/2010/04/rhys-millens-unlimited-pikes-peak-car-with-a-41-liter-hyundai-genesis-v6-we-go-beneath-the-skin.html) with new bodywork and the Hyundai mill strapped in.

Looks exactly like a Daytona Prototype and nothing like a Rally Car. WTF? I think the Koreans got Pikes Peak and Daytona 24 Hours confused....
