  Looks cute, but its a special needs car - 2001 Hyundai Tiburon
  By asherave - November 24 - 10:30 am

  If I had eschewed the last three repairs (at least $6,000 ago), I could have afforded a more reliable used car by now.

  its a SHARK - 2001 Hyundai Tiburon
  By Mokael - October 8 - 2:00 am

  First time I saw it, I knew that this I will own it. I still test driven Civic and Sunfire, but Tiburon was the winner hands down. Awesome basic features (I have 2nd package with CD, sunroof, and stuff), as they say "zippy" engine, pretty small (good for in-city parking), more powerful than Civi will ever be, and much more comfortable and better looking that Sunfire (or Cavalier, or Saturn, or Escort). By the way, should I mention that it has a large and more powerful engine that Celica? Anyhow - if you are looking for a sporty coupe, give Tiburon a try.

  Dont Depend On It! - 2001 Hyundai Tiburon
  By MyTibbySucks - September 7 - 3:43 pm

  This is the biggest piece of crap ever. Almost immediatly the squeaks started. Also have to replace the headlights every time it rains. We bought this new and have put in a transmission at 80,000 miles among other things. At least it was covered under warranty. We have had this thing towed so many times that we upgraded our towing miles through AAA! Buyer beware.

  I bought the car for 13,563.19 Brand new in 2001 It has cd leather fully loaded. The car rattles a little but i expected it. I race the car in SCCA SOLOII H Stock the car does well and will do better with mods. The bottom line is this at the time there was no other car that offered its performence for the price. By the way did i mention that the car weighs only 63lbs more than the Integra type r. And with all the races ive attended with 22,000 miles I put on it I still have not replaced the brake pads.

  Great car to drive around city and fun summer vehicle. Not good for country night driving on dark country roads. I had alot of fun driving in the warm months but do not like how it handles on ice and in snow. This car has great miles per gallon. I bought this car brand new and thought very reliable until this past year. Transmission went out so it was great to have the 100,000 mile warranty.

  Good Value - 2001 Hyundai Tiburon
  By egg - February 20 - 10:00 am

  I bought mine about 4 months ago and cant say that Im disappointed. Yes, it could use more ponies, and some of the interior trim is cheap, but for the money it is an outstanding value. Exceptionally fun to drive, good gas, great service at the dealership. Nothing else in the price class is even close. Warranty outstanding. Get the leather and rims, its worth it.

  I bought the car new in 2002 , the year they skipped and introd the 2003. I fell in love with the model on first sight , so it was the ultimate impulse buy. This model is FUN to drive.Very nimble in city traffic! A great ride for the handling enthuiast. Some people find it under powered , but I never thought so. I am a Bear (55" , 210lbs) of a guy , and it wasnt always the easiest fit , but I learned to love this little hot rod of mine!

  You gotta love the look!! - 2001 Hyundai Tiburon
  By aka_rerun - May 27 - 2:00 am

  I think over all this is a very good car. I test drove many other sports coops before I picked the tib. The main reason for my choice is its a great looking car. Second is price and the 3 was it had good handeling. So far I have had only one problem with it during the winter I wrecked one of my whippers because it froze to the the window and I turned them on.

  Love my Tib - 2001 Hyundai Tiburon
  By Gina - March 29 - 10:00 am

  This car is my baby! I got what I paid for, its obviously not a lexus, but way less problems than any other car I owned. The Power windows was a known issue and the Dealership will fix any little thing I can complain about! Its a great car to drive, looks really cool too.
