There isn't much to say except that there isn't anything on the market that competes with this car. It's short comings are minor and the quality is unbelievable.

Since 2003, the new disgned Tiburon has been setting a trend. This sporty coupe will turn heads as the exterior designor was an ex-Ferrari engineer. The Tiburon has excellent transmission, automatic or manual. With the option of a 5/6 speed manual or an automatic with Shiftronic (allows manual gear operation), the Tiburon is a great 2 door hatchback coupe.

Best price/performance ever

This is my first car purchase. I am not a street racer but I wanted a smaller car, definately a two door, and it had to look cool. This is the smoothest ride of any car I have ever been in. When I do 80 it feels like I am doing 40 (which landed me a ticket unfortunately). The limited edition is well worth it. The leather is very classy and the sound system rules. I wouldn't reccomend this car for a racer as the horse power is a bit below par of other cars like the eclipse. But this car destroys the scion Tc, anyday. If you're a person looking for a cool 2 door ride that is affordable, this is the way to go for sure. I cannot reccomend this car enough.

Car is BABIED, and yet at only 25k miles I've had to put her in the shop nearly every 3 months for something major. It never ends. Had to replace numerous speed censors, the entire flywheel/clutch assembly, complete transmission change-out (mine is a 6- speed manual, that suddenly gave out a couple weeks ago), and sunroof control, along with ongoing minor annoyances like constant blown fuses from stock wiring issues. Ridiculous. I love this car to death and take such good care of it.. but every time I turn around I'm running into major work that needs to be done on her. Having bought her used, I only get the 60k mile warranty, so I might SELL her before then! Yikes.

I drive my tiburon REALLY HARD. and for the last 8 months its been taking it great. ive gone thought 2 sets of tires and tones of gas but i love the car. the V6 dose sound a little under powered when you hear 175 hp but it can do a hell of alot with that 175 deff a great car looks geat and very easy to tune up. stage 2 assains supercharger with ice box and exshust plus a few other things can push you up in the 500 hp area.

Value for money, fit for purpose, fun to drive. If you enjoy tearing up $ bills so you can convince friends and relatives you earn more money than they do (sometimes not true), you won't enjoy the Tiburon. It's not perfect (or rather not perfectly balanced - bit too heavy, and a bit too much torque steer), but it's a car that really does try to deliver what you want of it.

I love this car. I was in the market for a mazda and they wouldn't come down on the price so i went and test drove my tibby and fell in love. To get a car with power windows and locks and all for $18000 u can't beat that. I was looking for something sporty that i could fix up performancewise and make my own and it is really easy to do that with this car.
