I dig

2006 Hyundai Tiburon SE 2dr Hatchback (2.7L 6cyl 6M)

The orange crush color is a definite head turner and the car itself is a fun drive. Before giving it to my girlfriend, I drove it hard. Hard enough to bald the tires and bend the master cylinder. Woops! We've done mods to car like an AEM intake, headers straight back with no cat to an ARK exhaust, with a stage one clutch and a light weight flywheel, and a short throw shifter. It sounds nice and isn't obnoxious. My only real complaint is that for a V6, 173 hp is a wee bit under powered. I guess that means if you want a bit more bite and more growl do a an exhaust and an intake. The car will get a little more hp and sound real nice.

I wanted a change from the SUV I was driving. This car is comfortable, fast and fun to drive. I can park it in any parking spot and the standard warranty is great, roadside assistance is also included. Can't ask for more. The style and look of the car is also fabulous. The minute I sat in it I was in love. I was actually in the market for an eclipse or a mustang but the tiburon capatured me even after I had test driven the other two cars.

Great performance. Handles well. Best sports car for the price. So far no major issues with the car. Smaller issues with radio, sunroof were immediately handled under the warranty.

Perfect Car for 16-Yr-Old Son's 1st Car

Purchased it for 16-year-old son's birthday (1st car-Dec.7 '05) and we love it. We did not get the V6 because I don't want something that would be too much of a hot rod for a young driver. We find that it has PLENTY of pep for take off and city driving, as well as highway. I've read reviews that say it's underpowered, but we beg to differ. Perhaps compared to a turbo or sports car with a larger engine, but I drive a Jetta turbo and I still find this car to be outstanding. It's solid, beautiful and has the best warranty you can find anywhere. In fact, we've already decided to buy another one next year, so we will be repeat buyers when the 07 comes out.
