  fun car - 2004 Hyundai Tiburon
  By Howiein ftlaud - April 25 - 10:00 am

  I have owned Vettes, Jags, Volvos and this is by far the best overall. I have the base model and it was clearly the best value out there. It is fun to drive, good on gas and i cruise all day between 80 and 100 mph.

  All the men in my life are grinning - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
  By SandiS - April 25 - 10:00 am

  After owning a Honda and being a die hard Honda fan, I thought I would give this little car a try. I was 5 sec. into the drive test and I knew I was taking it home. I is so much fun to drive! Even after owning for 9 months, the power still surprises me. The body style is so sleek and sports- car-like I have been asked, "Is that a Lexus? A BMW?" I was even got out of a speeding ticket because the cop was so impressed with my car!

  THIS CAR IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING ON - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
  By SLIK - April 17 - 2:00 am

  I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR, AND LET ME TELL YOU, I LOVE IT. ITS BEAUTIFUL AND IT JUST FUN TO DRIVE AND STARE. I HAVE THE INTERIOR IN CHROME AND ITS JUST GORGEOUS INSIDE AND OUT. HYUNDAI HAS REALLY IMPROVED AND I BET YOU THAT IF THIS CAR HAD THE NAME HONDA, IT WOULD COST MORE THAN THE PRELUDE.

  Clutch problems - 2004 Hyundai Tiburon
  By JEER - April 13 - 2:00 am

  I bought a Tib 2003 on Nov 30th 2002, (sunroof, abs, v6, 5 speed, 18250 on the road) I have the hell of the time with the car, until I started to have problems with the clutch after only 8000 miles. I took it three times to dealer to get it fix, finally they replaced the whole part, but it was too late for me. I trade it on Dec 2003.

  the tib - 2008 Hyundai Tiburon
  By sassthat - April 2 - 6:40 pm

  I bought the tiburon sight unseen 3 months ago. I was pleasantly surprised by almost everything about this car. Although the backseat is tiiiny, it has comfortable front seats, agreat look, easy to drive and all the features I wanted. I was in an accident 2 weeks ago that totaled the car (flipped it). I walked away with a scratch on my foot. Fantastic car... really! My only complaints are: size of backseat, pretty big blind spot, a bit bumpy on older roads Highly recommended... especially after the wreck.

  Fun in spa city - 2008 Hyundai Tiburon
  By mario - March 26 - 7:23 pm

  This car is fun to drive. Everybody that rides in it wants one. After driving pick ups for the last 10 years this car made driving a lot more fun. Both my college age kids want me to loan it out to them. I looked at a lot of other cars and the price a warranty changed my mind.

  To Many Problems - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
  By Ron - March 22 - 8:00 am

  Since I have purchased this vehicle brand new two years ago, I have had many problems that are not covered by the warranty. It is on its third clutch and flywheel in only 37,000 miles and the first two were factory. I had a racing clutch and flywheel put in because it was cheaper and better quality than hyundai engineering. Now my starter is out and they are blaming it on my flywheel so they wont cover it by the warranty. I like how the care looks, and drives when it works. I hate how much maintenance i have had to it just to keep it running. IT is not worth it, the car looks nice but unless you want to waste a lot of money dont get the 6 speed version.

  Smooth ride for smooth roads - 2005 Hyundai Tiburon
  By DCKID - March 17 - 1:30 pm

  I really loved this car when I purchased it in Fl. It had a great exterior and the sound system really pumped! I never had mechanical trouble or any trouble for that matter until I came to DC. The numerous pot-holes took a SERIOUS toll on the high performance tires. In the course of 2 years I blew 4 tires, and replaced more then 10. It was fun to drive but only on smooth streets, you can feel EVERY SINGLE NOOK&CRANNY in the street! Buyer beware if you live somewhere with jacked up roads!

  Awesome car for price - 2003 Hyundai Tiburon
  By nick - March 13 - 10:33 pm

  I paid only $6700 for the car and was well worth it. The 6spd is awesome! Although they should have forgone the metering valve (I took it out) used with the transmission to make it "slip" so that it can be a "friendly" vehicle for everyone to drive along with less slop in the shifter linkage. Should have beefed up the suspension a little bit also to get the tires to stick to the road better and make for a more aggressive feel. Lighter wheels would help too (17" stock are 18 lbs!). With a little bit of money and time it can be built a little to change these "problems". I do love the car though. Very fun to drive and turns heads all the time. Decently powerful v6 and not bad gas mileage for v6
