South Korean designer ?

Yes, sponsored by Hyundai.

A Hyundai-sponsored Toyota Celica proposal ? That's unusual.

It's not a Toyota Celica proposal, just:

Quote from: Carnut on December 14, 2020, 06:08:50 AM

It is based on Celica mechanicals, yes.

I guess it can't be found online ?

Carnut · « **Reply #34 on:** December 15, 2020, 05:30:44 PM »

No.
You have to get to the answer by calculated guesses if you haven't got the book it's from!

So is it called something like Hyundai H___ ?

Carnut · « **Reply #36 on:** December 17, 2020, 12:50:06 PM »

It doesn't have a name, I only wanted to know what it was a proposal for, based on what mechanicals.
We've already established it was based on Toyota Celica parts, and I'll tell you that it was a proposal for a 4-seater car.
So now all I want is who designed it?

Well-known South Korean car designer ?

Carnut · « **Reply #38 on:** December 17, 2020, 02:34:13 PM »

I wouldn't say he was well-known, but he had a successful career with a major Korean car manufacturer.

Career at Hyundai ?

Youn Seon-ho?

Carnut · « **Reply #48 on:** March 04, 2021, 04:04:18 AM »

Yes, he was the designer whilst at the RCA in 1986, sponsored by Hyundai, then went on to have a successful career at Kia.
Well done.
