  Excellent value - 2006 Hyundai Tiburon
  By ccrater4 - September 5 - 4:36 am

  I bought my Tiburon GT for $8000 about a year ago. Ive loved it since day one. It is over all an awesome car to drive. Although, it is not the fastest car. If you are looking for something to race it may not be for you. Its lack of power isnt justified by its fuel economy. I would expect better than 18 city from a 2.7L V6. Over all I would recommend this car to anyone. It is a great deal and is very fun to drive.

  There isnt much to say except that there isnt anything on the market that competes with this car. Its short comings are minor and the quality is unbelievable.

  Love my tibby - 2006 Hyundai Tiburon
  By Skygirl - July 15 - 3:10 am

  I love this car. I was in the market for a mazda and they wouldnt come down on the price so i went and test drove my tibby and fell in love. To get a car with power windows and locks and all for $18000 u cant beat that. I was looking for something sporty that i could fix up performancewise and make my own and it is really easy to do that with this car.

  I owned first generation Tiburon when it came out in 97 and I still own it. I now have the 2006 Tiburon GS model and love it even more everything about it, is great.

  Great while it lasted...... - 2006 Hyundai Tiburon
  By JMZ HET - January 15 - 11:36 am

  My car was flawless for the first 21,000 miles (2 years). The problem was initially diagnosed as "collapsed engine lifters" but after this repair failed to correct the issue a new engine "short block" was installed. After another 1,750 miles the "new" engine short block proved to be "defective". During the 5 weeks the dealership had the car to install the 2nd short block we gave up and bought a Nissan. Very disappointing.

  Tiburon V6 in Oz - 2006 Hyundai Tiburon
  By Ron Mason - December 24 - 7:16 am

  Value for money, fit for purpose, fun to drive. If you enjoy tearing up $ bills so you can convince friends and relatives you earn more money than they do (sometimes not true), you wont enjoy the Tiburon. Its not perfect (or rather not perfectly balanced - bit too heavy, and a bit too much torque steer), but its a car that really does try to deliver what you want of it.

  Tiburon 06 - 2006 Hyundai Tiburon
  By jg31 - November 7 - 5:23 pm

  Since 2003, the new disgned Tiburon has been setting a trend. This sporty coupe will turn heads as the exterior designor was an ex-Ferrari engineer. The Tiburon has excellent transmission, automatic or manual. With the option of a 5/6 speed manual or an automatic with Shiftronic (allows manual gear operation), the Tiburon is a great 2 door hatchback coupe.

  makes you feel special - 2006 Hyundai Tiburon
  By weav8060 - November 15 - 6:16 am

  I have an orange crush tibby that turns heads and really glows. Never mind the nominal hp -- this car is fast and you can navigate traffic like a star. BMWs have a hard time keeping up. It purs beautifully. Get the sunroof -- its the first time Ive had one and its important for the overall feel and comfort. Also, mine doesnt have rear windshield wipers and that needs to be remedied. The seats are very comfortable, but part of a cockpit feel that you have to slip into -- always pull the manually operated seats back as you get in and out (thats a fun factor too). This cars not for your if youre taller than 6 or overweight. The is a high revr and mileage is mediocre.

  incredible - 2006 Hyundai Tiburon
  By Mike - November 14 - 5:50 am

  "Yeah right.. a HYUNDAI.." or at least thats what I thought when I was ready to buy a new car. My Ford died at 84,000 miles so I traded it in for $4,000 looking at the Civic Si, Eclipse, WRX, tC, RSX, and a few others. Loved my stepsisters 06 Sonata so decided to give Hyundai a try. I never thought Id own a Korean car, but this one is perfect. My car had to have auto climate, V6 (or similar) refinement, leather, moon roof, and premium sound. That pretty much knocked everything out but the Tiburon, Eclipse, and RSX. Minor complaints, but no regrets. This was the best car by far. Firm but not harsh, comfortable but not boring, feels like our 06 C280 in terms of driving feel. Love it.
