So Far So Great!

All around great car! I took a long time deciding what car to get. I looked at the Mini Cooper S, and the Acura RSX type-S, neither of which do I have bad things to say about. Just afraid the Cooper novelty would wear off, and didn't like paying extra for a spoiler and fog lights on the Acura. All of which led me to check out the Tiburon. So much car for significantly less money than the others. True, Hyundai doesn't have the same "Cachet" of the other nameplates, but I got what in reality is an equivalent car and kept more "Cash-A" in my pocket!

I purchased my tiburon used only a few months ago but I have wanted one since I first laid eyes on one 5 years ago. I was pleasantly surprised with most aspects of the car. Most notably the 6 speed manual is a lot of fun because of the gear ratios. Clutch is both intuitive and fun (very important to me). The front end lines of the car give you a great idea of where your car is but the back end is a little hard to judge. Labeled as 4 seats but really only two really comfortable seats. Im 6,2" and enjoy the driver seat very much. Mine was purchased with custom sound and exhaust so no comment. Fuel economy could be slightly better. **no car is as unique and low-key at the same time as this car**

I just bought my Tibby about a month and a half ago. It really is a nice car. The one and only problem I'm having with it is shifting. One day it shifts like it were brand new and then another day I have to force the shifting. It seems to fix itself but I know one day ill have to drop the big bucks. Other then that, if your 6ft+ expect to roll into the car. I love the design, inside and out. It's not as fast as I thought it would be but from 60-100 mph is fine by me. If you're looking to buy, test drive it and make should to test all gears. If gear shifting is hard, I wouldn't rick it. Overall though, I'm happy with my choice (so far).

I am very pleased at the class this car has for the price, not to mention the looks it gets from other people, it's a real eye catching automobile. Also the warranty that it has, the whole time my car is financed, its under warranty, now thats a deal. I have the GTV6 and this little care will move on down the road, and is fun to drive and is sporty as hell.

AFTER DRIVING THIS CAR FOR 10 MONTHS I FIND THE CAR AN EXCEPTIONAL VALUE FOR THE MONEY. I LIKE THE 6 SPEED TRANSMISSION. FIRST GEAR COULD BE A LITTLE MORE PEPPY. I'VE HAD THE CAR SPEED OVER 160. ITS REALLY A KICK. I'M IMPRESSED WITH THE NEW DESIGN. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
