man what the fuck are you talking about?

WOW This is quite the long thread. I test drove a V6 Tib not to long ago.

The lady that came along for the test drive sat in the back and told me "pertend im not here" so i did. She l;et me beat the car real good. She was into racing so she had fun as did I. I liked the car. Im relitivly young so i liked the fact that the seats were not plush. And the sparsness of the interior. But i did not like the stock stero. Nice car, but i decided to not get one. I was going to get it for my GF but i got here a MR2 Turbo insted.

damn, she must have been happy lol

All those nasty Tibi reviews must have been done by some dedicated Honda (or something else) owners. Truth is, Hyundai is now tied with Honda at 2ND PLACE out of all auto companies for reliblitly factor, according to a review done by USA Today. True, it's 2nd to Toyota, but I just bought a 2004 Tiburon GT after many months of comparison to Celica, RSX, and such. The Neon, bad as it may be, is still a Neon. The MR2 starts at over $25000 dollars, for a 4 banger, without a damn thing on it! ( I paid $18,983 for my Tibi GT, loaded) So, considering all thats been said throughout this thread, the Tiburon is one of the sexiest, and best imported sports cars that you can get today, and I still have money left over for mods.

Over in Korea, the Tiburon (aka Tuscani) is one of the most popular car's to hit the streets, ever. All those Tibi knockers should check out some of the work they do on those.

So, yes, it all boils down to a matter of opinion. But the truth is, it's all about weighing of the pro's and con's of what the buyer is looking for, right...!?!

hyundai tiburon... best car for under 20 grand
seriously

I agree

This is the longest thread I have ever seen. Every one has there own taste, hence the thousands of cars that are out there. I dont see the point of keeping on the bashing of people and cars for 13 pages for one jack-off's opinion.

well I think right now it turned into a "good" Tib thread, since we're talking about how much we like the car

this thread shoulda died a long time ago

The 2003 Tiburon certainly looks nice and sporty, of course, could you expect anything else that has been copied from the amazing Ferrari 456?

Apart from that the Tiburon isn´t good: some important magazine says about the Tiburon:

´This is a machine of unrefined flavors,
The cockpit smells of unpleasant chemicals,
The doors slam with a junky note,
The ears and the seat of the pants report a heavy-footed ride.
The interior at cruising speeds feels with a dull roar rather than mechanical music.
Lots of impact noise up from the pavement.
The steering is lifeless and lacking in the feel of precision that makes a great sporting car.
The gearbox requires heavy effort.
The lever motion is trusty. We always grabbed the right gear BUT the action is not fun.
The engine lacks thrills.
It peaks fairly low, far below the 6500 rpm redline, and offers no . encouragement above 5000.
None of us liked the interior.
The seats are supportive but lacking all traces of plushness.
We noticed small riples in the door stampings and elsewhere on the exterior, a sign of unsophisticated dies in the manufacturing plant.
The Tiburon is priced where it belongs (cheap)
It doesn´t comes with all-season tires like its competitors (It can´t go on the snow).
The rear seat comfort and space with 2 passengers are worst than average. Same goes for the ease of entry/exit (3 out of 10) ´´
---------------
In conclusion this is a car that just can´t be compared to real sports coupes like the Celica, Acura RSX, Mitsubishi Eclipse, VW GTI, etc..........
:screwy: :screwy: :screwy: this car is a bargain for what its worth. i own a tiburon and my shit kills the street. I had two things put into it . ground kit wicthreally works more on the stero and a custom air intake . its a beast with just that . the road noise complaint is bull shit unless you ride in pot holes all day lol cause i dont have thAT problem . its a white i4 tib 2003 . what counts is performance, do you have one? if not get one at least test drive one before you rip ur mouth with lies . heres some sugar to your ears that i can let you sample . I can be at at a red light peeling my ass off with no move ment and get the grip i need to go after the show off lol you got lied to bad this car is no joke son

:screwy: :screwy: :flipa: you dont know the true facts test drive it the way i have it built, i have two things put in it. 1 is ground kit which benfits the stero better 2 i have a short air intake. the road noise is bull un less your in potholes all day long lol one treat i can give you , i can be stopped at a red light spinning whithout moving then gain traction when i want see how i said when i want lolol

let this thread die
noones bashin our car anymore
it aint worth it

I agree with Nisco, most people know now that a Tib is a force to be reckoned with, so just give it a rest and post more productive things

I just Bought a 2004 GT V6 6 speed tranny Tiburon, after driving the RSX, Celica, Solara, and Eclipse. After driving all these cars I choose the Tiburon. First off yes it is less expensive than some of the above listed cars, Plus 1 It looks cool as hell, Plus 2 It has a sweet warranty, Plus 3 Hunydai is comming out with factory aviable hop ups that will be covered under warranty!!! Plus 4 The only other company that can offer this is Toyota TRD. Take that honda! Oh and the A-spec package for the RSX, big deal. Its a glorified suspension kit for 5k no thanks. I will take my tibby thank you.

:werd: :iagree: :ylsuper: This thread will NEVER DIE!!!! :headshake


:evillol: :devil: :grinyes: :ylsuper: :bananasmi :boink: :newburn: :cya:

Just wanted to be a part of the longest running thread in the history of mankind....Now I can say that I have been.

Well, not THE longest, but damn close.

I've got to put....

...THE 200TH AND LAST POST IN THIS THREAD!!!! YeAAhhhHHH!!!

Now, this thread may be retired. :iceslolan

ohh geezus

Tiburons are awsome and as for the problems with them, every car has them, that is what car checkups and customizing is for.

... its called tuning

Tiburons are Awesome!! You get a lemon in every group so expect it.

I love my Tiburon!!

Tiburon may be great for some of you guys but my Tiburon gave me a bad taste of Hyundai's. It does have great engine power or what not but I caught a lemon. Ive always been a Nissan fan and when I got this Hyundai I gave it a chance..but it keeps breaking down on me. Hyundai service department sucks as well, they never listen to their customers. 04' tiburon is great but I dont know if I'd buy it.

why the hell did u reply in a post thats over a year old?

:iceslolan :grinno:

Nice signature pic. Who makes it. I like the design.

Side note, never mind I didn't notice the link. Its a ssangyong. Nice.

TS out

Euro Trash, do you even own a Tib? I have an '03 with close to 20k mi on it. Not even a hint of a problem! A couple of minor recalls but nothing critical. For under $20k you can't do better! You can put down Huyndai all you want, but those of us who own one, know better!:nono:

At the beginning of this thread some idiot said the Civic is better than the Tib.....LOL.....Thats one of the stupidest things i have ever heard......My 04 tib is a lot faster than my friends 04 Civic, its nicer inside and out too.....So i never want to hear anyone say a civic is better than a Tib.

civics > nothing

Civics are so common, like a dime a dozen. Tibs on the other hand are unique & stand out in a crowd.

Alright folks, lets respect other makes and models. Lets not turn this into a flaming thread by saying my car is better than your car. Each vehicle is different and unique in its own way, whether that be in looks, speed, feel etc.

On that thought I am closing this thread.

TS out.
