  • Excellent but for headroom - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    Only had my new 2003 Tiburon for a couple of weeks but absolutely love it. Got the SE model but for a 4 cylinder it performs beautifully. Accelleration and cornering are great and an outstanding Clarion sound system. Wrap around seats make driving comfortable on both short and long drives. Visibility takes a bit of getting used to but not a problem once accustomed to it. Only wish a bit more headroom was available for the driver. I am 60" and my hair touched the headliner. A larger sun roof opening would have fixed this. Overall.....Great valye

    Drives fantastic, fun to pick up and go on those country roads. Plenty of, "what kind of car is that?" - people like em. Simply "woo-hoo!"

  • I love it - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon

    There is only one thing wrong with this car. Its heavy as nothing else. I dont need a backseat, but I guess some people would. Other than that. It is my perfect vehicle. Nothing I have ever seen compares to the price, and every time Im out driving someone asks me where I got it. Even with the extra weight, its still quick, even with only 134 hp. But if you really want to go for the ponies, why would you even buy any car in this class? There is a turbocharger out there that promises 250 hp with the 4 banger. Granted it costs 6 thou. But that still adds up to only about 22,000. I just cant find anything wrong with this car.

  • HOT! - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    I owned an 84 Camaro and as I was sitting in the shop, I saw a magazine and was reading it and they had an article about the new Tiburon and I saw it and decided that I had to get it. I went to the dealership didnt test drive it, didnt argue over the price and got it. Its been a lot of fun it. I just had a cold air intake and cat back exhaust added to it and this thing really picks up. I was able to beat a turboed Eclipse with it. By the way, I am 56" so I fit in it nice and snug. I had a friend drive it and he said it "drove like a dream." This car is purely amazing and a heck of a lot of fun to drive.

    So far, this vehicle has exceeded my expectations in most every way. With 27,000 miles on it already, I have had no problems to speak of. Performance is great (for the price); regularly tempting me to peel the tires and redline at every stop light or onramp.

    I just had to trade in 3 months old Honda Civic to get this baby. My Tiburon matches all of my wishes.

  • Cute and affordable - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon

    I love my Tiburon! It handles wonderfully, and I have never driven a car quite like it. The interior is awsome, it is so comfortable (then again i am a small person 54). I wouldnt recomend this car to someone who is really tall, but for me it is the best car in its price range. I just cant say enough wonderful things about this car. The biggest plus though to me was the side air bag, the fact that they were standard, assured me that this was probably a really safe car.

  • Warranty Stinks!!! - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    I really love my Tiburon, its so fun to drive but Ive only had it a year and now the clutch went out and it broke the flywheel. $1700.00 at the dealership!! What I dont understand is why am I being penalized because I own a maual transmission if it was an automatic I would actually reap the benefits of the bumper to bumper warranty! I actually own 2 mine has 57,000 mi. my husbands only has 33,000 his did exactly the same thing. The dealership claims this is a rare problem - bull!!!! Beware if the clutch goes out your in for a big repair bill!!
