  I love my Tiburon - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
  By Kristy H. - April 19 - 2:00 am

  I absolutly love my little shark! Infact it seems like everyone who sees it does. A week after buying mine, a friend of mine bought one in a different colour, and now my best friend is looking to buy one. This car is wonderful. I love it. I would enourage anyone who is looking for a sports coupe to buy a tiburon (just not in mystic teal K? just playing). Mine is teal.

  Fun to drive and a great ride for the px - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
  By Gonzo - April 5 - 4:26 pm

  Ive read the other reviews and I must have a different take on some folks. I bought mine after comparing it to the Miata, Eclipse and Elantra and I actually liked the ride better. In my opinion it shifts better than the Eclipses around the same year and has a lot better torque in the low range. I found road noise or hard riding does seem to be dependant a lot on your tires. At higher presser it was a rougher ride (but better stability) but when I went down a lb in each tire, wow. The clutch can be a little picky, but once you get used to its nuances you can work with it... it seems like it wants a lot of RPM in each range. Nicely smooth turning and hard to beat the looks you get!

  I absolutely love my Tiburon. It gets lots of looks. It is fun to drive, It was love at first sight. When I set out to buy a car I had no idea I would be buying a Hyundai, but this car is so much fun! Everyone wants to drive with me.

  Hyuandais are Awesome - 2001 Hyundai Tiburon

  I love to drive my car.....It is fun and sporty and buying gas doesnt clean out my bank account....I can drive from Monroe Louisiana to Dallas Texas on one tank of gas....It is perfect for the college student who loves to save money and still have adventures.

  Unreal - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
  By jforrest8 - March 31 - 10:00 am

  "Lets not go overboard here" should post "Lets not post here unless youve driven the car"... With that said. I just purchased my Blue Shark yesterday. Got the shiftronic and am blown away by the power, look, comfort, and luxury incorporated in this sports car. It is a Supra/A4/Porsche at half the price. I am very pleased. P.S. Though I dont recommend it, I just dusted my first RSX in a 300 yard sprint and he got a better jump than I did...

  much better than my kia - 2006 Hyundai Tiburon
  By januarygirl7777 - March 25 - 1:20 am

  This car is so fun to drive. This car has enough power for me even in the 4 cyl version. The only problem I have is condensation that forms on the rear window when the defrost is on and the defrost takes a while to clear the windows, but other than that I LOVE LOVE LOVE this car.

  Solid car - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
  By Freon - March 20 - 10:00 am

  You wont get a nicer car for under $20k. Thats $2-3k less than a similarly optioned Celica or Eclipse V6. And its LOADS easier to drive than the anemic Celica GT-S which requires revving to at least 5000rpm just to get power. The gearing on the 6M is way too short. 3400rpm at 80mpg? Thats too high. That may be why the gas mileage is so poor (but you can fill with 87 octane, unlike premium only for the Eclipse V6 or either base or GTS Celica). The flywheel is a tad too heavy, but Im really nit-picking. I really like the action on the clutch and the shifter. The spacing is perfect. It really promotes fast and accurate shifting.

  It is a little Ferrari 456 GT!! - 2006 Hyundai Tiburon
  By Maximus - March 15 - 4:36 pm

  When the Tiburon is driven hard, it literally burns its tires. It has the athleticism of its lighter weight competitors. Its V6 is very confident and its steering is very responsive. Despite it is little bit heavy for a sport coupe, its effective powerful engine over comes any challenges. This car outperforms its competitors such as Toyota Celica, Acura RSX, Mitsubish Eclipse and delivers a smooth ride.

  Its a Real pleasure - 2005 Hyundai Tiburon
  By Coupe - February 25 - 12:20 am

  This is my first sport car so I cant compare it to any other sport car, but I feel it needs more power. perfect handling (without a high performance suspensions and tires) The only bad thing about it that it’s very difficult to find accessories and modification for the body and the engine as well
