  • Used to HATE Hyundai - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    I took the car for a test drive and i was very sceptical. First i love the exterior styling, one of the hottest looking cars out there. Second i was impressed with the interior material quality. Not overly busy with chinsey crap. Material feels sturdy and stable. I drive alot and hate being in traffic with a manual transmission so i opted for the Sportronic automatic transmission. This option is so much fun. It gives me the ability to shift manually when i choose to do so. I think the single factor that caused me to purchase this car is the price.

    I just got my new Tiburon this week and I love it! Its fun, sporty, and drives great in the rain!!! I cant wait to drive it when the roads are dry. I bought the car because of its sleek exterior design and comfortable interior. The infiniti system is absolutely perfect for jamming to great tunes. The only thing I wish it has is a bit more hp but it does the trick. Having the 6-speed really helps. Its definitely a head-turner and has really wowwed my friends and family.

  • Kick A** car! - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon

    Fabulous car! Great feeling driving it. Pick up, from stop position is excellent. Standard features are above average. Its usually in automatic, but can go into manual transmission if I want to play some road games with some of the big boys! Stereo is fantastic. The ONE BIG THING I MISS IS..... Hyundai doesnt make rain guards for the windows. I get soaked if the window is open a bit in the rain. Otherwise,I really love everything about this car. Great styling Hyundai!

  • Best buy of my life - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    Ive owned this car for awhile now, and I must say, this is probably the best vehicle ive purchased to date. Its reliability is stupendous, and the car is most fun when you find yourself on a twisty road and youve got the 6- speed manual to play with. I have to say my only complaint is the clutch, but a few bucks will take care of that problem. All in all, this is my new favorite car.

  • Wide grins for me and wifey - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    The wife and I bought a 6-cyl, 5-spd Tibby and we just love it! Its got plenty of power for around town. I mean, lets face facts...where do everyday joes get to use 250 or 300hp anyway? The 170ish hp that comes outta the box is sensible yet still fun. Gotta go with the 17in wheels though. They look kewler and help to stiffen the ride a bit. Otherwise, the car is keen on standard features and the exterior is better than the RSX and not as goofy as the celica. For the money, I feel the Tib fills a niche between bland status symbols (RSX), overpiced and under powered cliches (Eclipse), and over done sillycars (celica).

  • My Tibby & Me - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    I bought my Hyundai off the show room floor. She had 4 miles on her. Now, 101,000 miles later weve come quite a ways together. Many memories in what Id consider to be a very reliable car. While "Tibby" seems to be beginning to slowly break down...She has been very fun and reliable over the past 7 years. Id love to trade her in for a new one but sadly they are no more. If youre looking for a comfortable seat, exciting ride, sleek design, and speed this is your vehicle.

  • Outrageous car!!! - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    Hyundai has done it! The new 2003 Tiburon is not heard of, at this price at least. It is nice and FAST, and with a few inexpensive modifications it is even faster! Everyone asks what I drive, I comment just a Hyundai, see the faces of disgust, but then I show them the car and give them a ride, the faces change and they want one now! I say get it if you want it, who cares if its Hyundai, you will be surprised!!

  • After my first 3400 miles..... - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    After my test drive, all I could say was: do I want the red one or the black one? One word sums it up: FUN! This car is the most fun to drive of any Ive owned in the last 20+ years. Extremely comfortable to drive, east to maneuver, goes as fast as it looks, gets lots of attention. Only bad part: all the buzzymobiles think you want to race.

  • The last hyundai - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    Purchased the car new and after 6 years have 28,000 miles. During this time the moon roof broke, driver window was inoperative, both plastic door handles broke, paint in a number of areas has faded, inside and out. Now you cannot put gas into the tank without 17-22 tries due to the charcoal canister, close valve and filter canister needing replacement at a cost of $600.00 plus. They were not sure of the price at the dealership. Contacting the home office was to no avail. This will be the last Hyundai I will ever purchase. They are cheaply built.
