Beware of The Shark!

Always wanted a Tibby since new generation body styling....It's finally mine! I love this car. Comfortable and unique bucket seats. Quiet but powerful V6. Great exterior & interior styling. Best bang for the buck! Move over Honda and Toyota...we now have a Korean car with TONS of aftermarket mods available. My soon-to-be "Tuscani Black Shark" is a fun ride 110% of the time!

2005 Tiberon

The Tiberon is a real pleasure to drive. It makes me feel like I'm on the Indy 500 track. It's acceleration is great and corners like a go-cart. It's breaking distance is excellent. I am 68 years old and when I'm driving my Tiberon, I feel Like I'm 16, and behind the wheel of my dream car, the corvette. I have not checked out the top speed but I'm sure it will do all I need on the highway. When I drive my Tiberon, heads turn. Many people have walked up to me in the car and asked what kind of cat is that? It's a beauty. I Love my Tiberon.

We walked into the dealership looking for a Sonata, not a Tiburon. What we found was fun and excitement. I have known others that have own Hyundais before and a family member bought one when they first came to the US. What crap they were back then. Always breaking down, always under powered. That isn't the same Hyundais we see now. The 2005 Tiburon is stylish and very good looking. Not a retro look of the new Mustang but stylish nonetheless. The lines are beautiful to look at, and if it looks as good driving down the road as it does sitting still it is amazing. It handles like a dream and rides just as well. All around a great car.

I love this car. I have not had a bit of problem with it. The only people that complain are the ones that have to sit in the back. The only thing I would change is the color, I chose black and it is hard to keep clean.

I bought this vehicle from the dealership at first the vehilce was fine, i got 1/2 mi down the road they never put antifreeze in the car!! then they drove me around in circles on what they were going to do. I called hyundai Motor America and they have not called back in 3 weeks on what is going on they said they would trade out vehicle. Nothing has happened. Some plastic pieces are allready falling off the car. and it has 1400 mi not worth the money that they want for it. unless it's free don't bother buy a mini cooper S instead!!!!
