No the Tiburon is not RWD.
Get something RWD, you will kick yourself for getting anything FWD if you want something fun to drive, aside from something like a mini cooper because those things handle like they are on RAILS! Seriously though, find someone with an LS1 Camaro/Firebird Formula/Trans-Am and see if they will take you for a ride in it, those things are so fun to drive and cheap to modify it is nuts. Just headers/exhaust/air lid/maybe gears depending on what came stock and you are in the 12s(I think mid to low but don't quote me on that). Not to mention do just a cam swap and you have 400rwhp. I believe that's about 480 at the crank(where just about everyone else measures their power to seem faster). You can get 98s for about $10k-11k(at least where I live) so you'll save a bit of money and have a bitchin car. Not to mention they get insane gas mileage for a V8 as powerful as it is(19 city, 28 highway).

Re: wich rwd car?
It sounds like what everyone is saying is, if you want to go fast, your probably gonna go over budget. 15 K will buy some decent base model cars, but a kick in the ass will be more. Make sure to find your priority, and get the car you will be most happy with.

dont forget how much RWD sucks in the snow though. i think you might be kicking yourself for not buying FWD when your RWD spins out in the rain during cautious driving
