the tranny shouldnt break from 1 new driver. if it does its a piece of crap and hyundai deserves to have one less buyer. i can see the clutch going sooner though.

Re: GTI, tc, or Tiburon

if something does happen, its replaced. i have no idea if they cover the clutch. i know that napa will sell you a clutch for life time warrenty. if it dies on you, return it and they'll give you a new one.

Re: GTI, tc, or Tiburon

well clutches go, thats normal. if they sell a lifetime clutch they probably just bank on you not owning the car long enough to wear it out.

Re: GTI, tc, or Tiburon

great engine, and supposed to have a good suspension set up as well. it would be nice to have an AWD version though.

too bad that's a concept.

the tC is a nice looking car, but it's slow and isn't a good tuning platform
I can't say anything about the GTI or Tiburon since I haven't ridden in or driven either car.

mazdaspeed 3 is nice though.

Re: GTI, tc, or Tiburon

Too bad the thunder bunny sounds like a sex toy.

I like the mazdaspeed 3 alot, 0-60 high 5's, low 14 1/4 and nicer all around then an srt-4. I wish it was awd tho
