it looked nice. it ran like junk . When it rained the lights blew out. The tranny was bad and the color was awful. The paint job on them was bad and honestly i will never ever buy another one ever again . We let them know the paint was peeling and they said it's under warranty . Well yeah if i wanted to pay 500- and whats more it was only 6 months off the line. Thxs and sorry never again

This car is THE WORST car I have EVER owned. I WOULD NOT recommend that ANYONE would buy a piece of crap like this. I've had it into the dealer many times to get it fixed, and they can't fix the problem. The car has NOT worked right since the day we drove it off the lot. I'm ready to take the car back to the dealer, with only about 6500 miles on it. If you are thinking of buying one. DON'T!!!!

Not so Happy

I've had my Tib for a year and a half and am not too happy with it. I have had no mechanical problems, but many annoying minor problems. I've had the driver side seatbelt replaced for not retracting, both headlights and fog lights have been replaced twice in the past 6 months, windshield wipers actually got stuck together in a rain storm, driver side running panel is warped, paint chips VERY easily, and bird poop eats right through the paint (even when washed off within a few days). Other than that, it's fun to drive. But, I am not sure I would buy another.

Tiburon, a nice car for a good price

Generally when you see a new type of car like an eclipse or something along those lines it is marketed and sold for a pretty high price I beleive the eclipse hit 18-19000, which is alot of money. When i needed a new car I looked at the Integra, Tiburon and Civic. I pretty much threw the civic out of the picture it just didnt suit me. So it boiled down the the Tiburon or Integra, and the Tiburon won. It has the same specs as an integra but its 4000 dollars cheaper. Most of the reviews I read said it was not as reliable as the integra but I dont drive that much and it has not given me any problems

TO MUCH ROAD NOISE

actually find this car to be decent,hard to get into reverse at times, at 11000 miles seems to be a well built car..with the exception of the road noise.. would perfer a standard rear wiper for safety issues. for the price with the warranty a pretty good deal
