own a 05 Hyundai Tiburon GT Ultimate Sports Package with sunroof and Infinity Sound system. When bought, had 13000 miles, now 40,000 love the pick-up and the mild roar through the muffler. looks are stunning, everyone who see my car for the first time love it! comfort for the driver and passenger is good, not for the people sitting in the back since not enough space for big and tall people. I'd call it a two-seater. Ample trunk space, better if back seats are put down. still suspension makes you feel all the potholes only problem I've had so far is the car pulling towards the right because of alignment issues. Also, when I jumped my car battery last winter, the sound system got damaged.

I totally loved this vehicle and a lady ran into me at a red light where normal people stop. She totaled my vehicle out, about 6 years ago and I have not been happy with any vehicle since. Mine was black, leather seats, custom rims and dark tint. I live in FL so the tint was fine. Aftermarket stereo and I was totally in love with this vehicle. I purchased it used, but it looked new. I cried when the tow truck took it from my home, like it was a family member. Hard to replace since they dont make it anymore. I have a 2019 Chevy Malibu i bought new. Its black also but i don't like it. I wish i could find another Tiburon, Automatic with low miles. Id get rid of the Malibu in a second for another Hyundai Tiburon GT. I really loved the car and left anyone that wanted to race in the dust. It was a kick ass vehicle. I absolutely loved it and would buy another if it were possible. Its a pain in the butt to get worked on, nonetheless I still loved my car more 5han any other i have owned. The Genesis is beautiful but I don't have that kind of money for one of them. Thank you Hyundai for screwing us by discontinuing the Tiburon with the Genesis. Tiburon people do not have Genesis money and you have lost many sales over it

Why pay 7 or 8 grand more for less was the conclusion I came to 3 years ago when I purchased my new Tiburon. At the time I was also considering the Celica and RSX which were more pricey and were 'base' models. My Hyundai is fully loaded and unlike the others, has leather, power sunroof, full power group, nice rims, dual exhaust and quite simply is very easy on the eyes. Since then, my gf has bought a new RSX Premium(9000 more) and I still say, my Tiburon is better. I have had zero problems and even if I did, Hyundai's warranty is amazing anyways. I drive it hard and it produces great performance and handling that is out of the league of other cars in its price range. Great car!!!
Awesomeness

This is my second Hyundai. My first car was a 1995 Accent and I totaled it in an accident. I wanted another two door and initially went to test drive an eclipse. The dealer wanted me to test drive this car and I fell in love. The ride is so smooth, it handles so well except in rain or snow when driving around curves you have to really slow down or you'll hydroplane and swerve a lot. I get a lot of compliments on this car and most people don't believe its a Hyundai. It runs so well. I've had a few probs like needing a new starter after I rear ended someone, and new transmission wires bc they were loose, but the dealer was great!
Fun and easy going...

I luv my Tib, and after getting the true low down on the warranty, I put in a cold air intake by AEM to up my economy and it's much more to my liking. Realize friends that upgrading your vehicle does not neccisarily kill your warranty. If it interferes with the basic structure of the vehicle and CAUSES the problems, then your added part will be in question and you will not be covered. Upgrading your air intake will only help your vehicle, not hurt it, soooo GET R DONE!!! Upgrading parts is not a problem. When you get into chipping, turbo, and things of that nature is when you run into problems. It's not really neccisary. The car is quick. You can cheaply upgrade for more performance.
