\"\"<\/a>We love the internet. The information superhighway serves up a dizzying array of knowledge, a buffet of the weird and occasionally, if we’re very, very lucky oddities like a rendering of a Hyundai Equus<\/a> coupe. As far as we know, Hyundai has no absolutely plans to trim two doors from its upcoming luxury barge, but that hasn’t stopped the artists at This Week in Motors<\/em> from dreaming a little dream. Shall we follow them down the rabbit hole? Why not.<\/p>\n

If Hyundai were to dip its toes into the high-end coupe segment, it would be waging war against heavy-hitters like the BMW 6-Series<\/a> and the Mercedes-Benz CL-Class<\/a>. Sure, the Equus might be able to keep pace thanks to its powerful 385 horsepower 4.6-liter V8 engine, excellent warranty and presumably a bargain-basement price tag, but there’s the tiny problem of convincing BMW and Mercedes shoppers to make their way into the local Hyundai dealership. Good luck with that.<\/p>\n

And that’s kind of a shame considering how sharp the This Week in Motors<\/em> rendering is. The Equus nose looks right at home with that arching roofline, flared rear fenders and Silver Arrow-ish rear end.<\/p>\n

What do you think? Have your say in ‘Comments.’ Thanks for the tip, Luke!
