The hardtop convertible Hyundai CSS (Coupe Cabriolet Study) was showcased at the Frankfurt Motor Show back in 2003. It was a concept car based on the Tiburon Coupe 2+2. It was created along with convertible specialists Karmann.

According to this page (http://www.hoot-uk.com/content/news/archive/hyundai/13122003-1.html), it will be in production before 2007, but I wonder if Hyundai ever plans on making it. It will be a big hit if it did though.
This page (http://www.ottawahyundai.com/oh04/news/news07.html) shows the roof going into the trunk area. There used to be a video of it, but I can't find it.
