Yes. It took Nissan 8 years to develop the GT-R. And Nissan has had great motors long before the VQ - the VG and even VE were indestructible. It's not like in one fell swoop Nissan knew exactly what kind of motor to design and use for the GT-R. It took countless changes and many years.

Hyundai could make a car that was well worth 100k, if it wanted to. It all depends on how much time, energy, and money they choose to spend on R&D and development. With enough money you can basically build anything.

one question. why is everyone assuming that since the company hasnt built one, that none of the engineers have been part of super car projects?

that none of the companies they consult with have any experience.

Hyundai has worked with Porsche and the Ferrari outfitters before... And its not unhread of that companies collaborate or share ideas/technology even with competition?

Jus sayin..
