The Hyundai Tiburon has been one of the best vehicles I have ever purchased. I purchased this vehicle 2 years ago at a used dealership and I have driven it over 32,000 miles since I got it. I have had absolutely no issues with it. It idles perfectly and has no shaking or rattling. The interior' s designed like a sports car with curved leather seats and a mesh cloth center. It offers the convenience of an automatic and the choice to go manual with its built-in slap stick. It offers a great color scheme of red and black with red dash lights. I also love the automatic sunroom, power windows, and power locks. If you want a vehicle that can go from 0 to 60 in 3 seconds, this car is perfect. It shifts smoothly from one gear to the next and handles excellent in any weather.
Story
Going to Texas from Illinois with my family was a very memorable experience. It was our first family vacation and it was so much fun. We made it all the way there and only spent $80 in cash. It was also great because we slip into tight spaces in thick traffic with ease unlike the bigger, bulkier vehicles.
Pros
The best part about the vehicle is that it's reliable and offers great performance. I haven't had it breakdown or need to be worked on since I've had it. I also like the overall interior color scheme and sports like appeal. Having power windows, locks, and doors makes is an added bonus that I thoroughly enjoy.
Cons
The biggest flaw this vehicle has is the lack of room offered inside the vehicle. It's perfect for one or two people in the front, but it gets very cramped with passengers in the back. I also dislike that it doesn't offer a good radio system in it. The stereo is an older cassette player style instead of a CD player. It has no extra power ports for charging my phone or GPS, which was also a downfall.

The Hyundai Tiburon GT has a sleek and sporty interior with bucket seats. High quality leather along the sides and bottom of the seats with mesh Incorporated into the center. It comes designed with temperature adjustment to get the car as hot or cold as you please, as well as an outside temperature reader. The rear windows defrosting stripes also allow for quick defrost times without having to continuously scrape the windshield off. It's very efficient on gas, giving approximately 35 miles to the gallon which makes traveling long distances easy and effortless. The ride is super comfortable, without having to feel the bumps and potholes in the road. For those with a lead foot like me, this car is fast, going from 0 to 60 in four seconds. It has the convenience of being both manual and a... (more)
Story
When I first purchased the vehicle, I always had guys in mustangs pull up next to me at a stop light and try to race me. Eventually took it to a strip (legal) and raced a mustang. Totally blew him out of the water.
Pros
Sun Roof. Excellent interior and exterior design. Convenient under the hood protection. Locking gas tank. Fast. Power windows & locks.
Cons
Could use more space inside of the vehicle.
