  • Up -and-Comer - 2005 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    You will not see this car reviewed in many magazines, but do not let that stop you from considering these little pocket rockets. One drive and you will see what the combined efforts of the Koreans and certain Japanese companies, are spawning a love-child of possible historic value. I personally bought the 2.0L 4 cylinder with a manual transmission due to rising gas costs. But if you want power to spare you should go with the GT V-6. I do not know why all the magazines are not testing these cars, but I am sure once they start testing them there will be a great demand in America for them.

    Nice styling vehicle which is comfortable and very fun to drive. The vehicle handles great with excellent pickup when needed and gets good gas mileage. The most fun I have had in many years.

  • Best Kept Secret - 2005 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    I decided to give the tiburon a try and I have not been disappointed. After looking at other similiar cars in this class, the value, styling, and handling of the tiburon was hands down the best choice for me. This years styling, both interior and exterior, is what caught my eye. It handles well, its comfortable, and fun to drive. Its not your high performance sports car, but it definitely has the look and feel of one (without the high price tag). Ive lost count of the compliments and the number of people who want to know what Im driving, its like having the best kept secret around.

    I used to own a RX8 and I never felt like I do with my new Tiburon GT. I love the exterior styling, price, performance, gas mileage, everything about my new Tiburon.

  • Too Much Torque - 2005 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    I am a big fan of the Hyundai Line, But it feels like the designers messed up one spot. Torque to the front wheels. When pulling out from a dead stop, there is extreme torque steer. Other than that, I love the ride, look, and performance of the vehicle and would recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable sports car.

  • Best buy for your buck - 2005 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    I just bought this car and what a great car. Very well designed style and very sturdy, quiet, sleek and smooth. The underbody has a sprayed on coating to deaden any road noise.

  • Awsome Car - 2005 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    This car is great, it has good gas milage, reliablity is flawless, its very fun, its fastit turns heads as you drive by, it sounds nice, and is very exotic looking, inside and out. I would highly recommend this car. You cant go wrong with the Hyundai warrenty. You most definatley get more for your money, I got mine for 15300 out the door, and all my friends envy me. I am very happy with this car, thank Hyundai!

  • I like it - 2005 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    My little Tiburon turns heads. I like the fact that very few people in the area have them. The ones I see on the road are from other states. Tiburon has excellent street appeal and beautiful lines. Classy for an inexpensive car.

  • Get ready for a new transmission! - 2005 Hyundai Tiburon
    By -

    This is the third Hyundai I have owned and will be the last. Tibs have a documented history of having transmissin problems (particularly the 6 speeds as found in the SEs). The styling is nice but what good is it when the transmission goes out and the acceleration is sub-par to other vehicles? I have had my car for 11000 miles and I have had transmission trouble with it since day one and the dealer refuses to acknowledge a design defect in the car. For the same price many other V-6s on the market can outrun you AND get better gas mileage, not to mention better workmanship. You truly do pay for what you get.
