  • Why am I addicted to this car?? - 2000 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    I love this car. I have had numerous problems and I cant figure out for the life of me why I still love it. Having said that let me talk about all the problems: faulty seatbelt and radio recalled, 7 bad headlamps in first year, passenger window stopped/started working, bad relay on fan blower, dead battery at 40K, new battery dead at 42K. I think there is a fundamental electrical problem, but 4 dealers cant find anything. So why am I addicted to this car?? I cant explain it. But I would buy it again still. go figure...

    Bought used in 01 with 8k miles. I have been HARD on this car (2.5 miles of dirt road daily, curvy roads, extremely fast, hit a dear at 65 mph, into ditches, over curbs) and it has held up tremendiously. Has 125K miles now. Have had to do very few repairs. Other than brakes, oil changes and tire rotation/replacement, I have only changed the spark plugs and wires twice, coil once, radiator once, belt once, battery once, wheel bearing once. This car is very reliable, it has never left me stranded anywhere, and mechanicly seems to be nearly indestructable. I couldnt be happier with my car. Even through I have drove the hell out of this car, it still runs great and looks nice inside and out!

    I bought this car for my daughter for when she turned 16 yrs old. I got to drive it for two yrs before having to hand the keys over! I absolutely LOVE this car. It looks great, handles great and was a great price. Now that my daughter drives it, I actually miss the car! BTW-my daughter is in love with the car too!

    This car is fun to drive and cheap to buy. I hope this car will last long past the warranty. Over the past three years I have found this car to be reliable, responsive, and believe it or not a head turner. The four cyl. is a little under powered but they fixed that in 2003 with the avail. 6 cyl. The body style is a classic in my opinion.

    Well Ive had this car for 2 1/2 years now. It is still going good. Lots of rattles and problems with dealerships in Canada. Ive had a few problems with cracked door panels bad spark plugs and o2 sensors. But I havent had much mechanical problems. Squeaks and rattles a plenty, actually the car has squeaked from the second I drove it off the lot. It doesnt seem to like the cold of Canada though, the engine idles really rough, the brakes bong and clank and there is lots of squeak in the clutch in the cold. Eveything goes away in the summer months though. I wouldnt buy another one even after the mechanical stability as I find the fit and finish to be sub par.

    Ok little car. It will be the last hyundai i buy. Problems with it. every 60,000 you must replace the altenator. It causes powersurges and blows headlights. ive had three wheel bearings go out. I baby my car and have nothing but problems. it over heats even though i have changed my radiator, thermostat and water pump, and i change my fluid every year. It rattles like crazy.. Dont get one. i do have 160,00 on it

  • My Hyudai Tiberon (2000) - 2000 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    I have not once had repairs done to this car in the 7 years I own it. I still even have the original battery. I only replaced tires, but do get an oil change every 3,000 miles. It is the greatest little car I ever had.

    If you are taking long or short trips the Tiburon is the way to go. Old or young will enjoy this car. The gas mileage is terrific.

    Issues with black paint vs. bugs. I have had black cars in the past and they did not have the issues with the bug "stains" on the car.
