So I saw this car on the road today that I'd never seen before, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was called.

It looked very similar to a recent Hyundai Tiburon. The name started with a T and ended with an I. There was a round badge with an (IIRC) orange "T" on it in the center of the decklid. That's all I got. :(

Anyone know?

What you saw was most likely either a Canadian model or one that someone rebadged.

I've seen one or two like that, I'm far enough from the Canadian border that they were probably rebadge jobs.
