The tiburons are nice cars for the price, their value drops fast but if you want to work with them they do have a limit like most cars. I've driven a 2002 before in 2005 and the whole car seems to be starting to fall apart (only 3 years old, feels like a 15 year old honda)
Not sure about the new gen but I'm sure it better than the old gen.
But like any other car, if you treat it well even a ford can last 200,xxxkms |

It is exactly like jason and yourself see my prelude. You guys hate it and call it a yacht. I really don't care at all, infact i join in on the jokes. I know both you too like civics a lot.
The rest of these guys however seem to think that getting pissed off and trying to make a hater come to terms with their cars will somehow make them feel better. It just makes me :lol: |

But what is this I see but some Rare JDM magic Core racing wheels my god what a sleeper of a ship. It must be from the shore of japan, and make a mockery of our fine canadian coast guard
Those are not core racing wheels jason. I guess if you can insult rims worth 1700 you should probably make fun of almost everyone on this forum. I guess you are exempt since you find the need to drop 4k on a set of rims. |

flame away buddy, that is my car that was just posted. I would love to see the shitty tib you drive and tell me it looks nicer. It is a shame i am actually one of the few that knows how to make a clean honda.
Seriously, post a picture of your car :thumbup: |

Anyways, back on topic!!!!
Consumer Guide® Road Test Ratings
Acceleration
GT, auto. SE Class Average
5 6 6.4
No 4-cyl models made available for test. V6s feel peppy with manual transmission--and lots of shifting. Test 6-speed SE clocked 7.7 sec 0-60 mph with firm, precise shift action. V6s feel lazy with automatic transmission; Hyundai says 8.2 sec 0-60. Automatic saps midrange punch, but manual shift gate compensates some.
Fuel Economy
GT, auto. SE Class Average
5 5 5.5
SEs averaged 15.7 mpg in tests with gas-eating acceleration runs, 22.1 in mixed city/highway work. Both engines use regular-grade fuel.
Ride Quality
GT, auto. SE Class Average
4 3 4
Large, sharp bumps register clearly, and rippled surfaces can induce nervous jiggle. But solid structure helps mitigate harshness, and even SE, with firmest suspension, is reasonably supple for a sporty coupe.
Steering/Handling/Braking
GT, auto. SE Class Average
7 7 8
Corners with good grip, modest body lean, mild front-drive noseplow. Steering a bit light except on SE, but quick, informative. Newly standard traction/antiskid system a plus for SE, but other models should offer it too. ABS brakes furnish quick, drama-free stops.
Quietness
GT, auto. SE Class Average
4 4 3
V6 intrudes under full power, coarse-surface tire thrum marked. Wind rush acceptable in gentle cruising, but excess buffeting discourages lowered windows even at modest speeds.
Controls
GT, auto. SE Class Average
6 6 5.5
Dashboard recalls sporty Audi TT design, has upscale blue night lighting. Gauges legible, if a tad small. Controls mostly simple, handy. Some drivers may find tilt steering wheel doesn't lift high enough for leg clearance. Good-looking cabin trim belies pricing, includes ample soft-touch surfaces.
Room/Comfort/Driver Seating (front)
GT, auto. SE Class Average
4 4 5.1
Low-slung seats tax entry/exit, combine with shallow side windows for closed-in feel. But even six-footers should be comfortable once in, though sunroof limits head clearance. Rear visibility hampered by sloping roofline.
Room/Comfort (rear)
GT, auto. SE Class Average
1 1 1.1
No fit place for those over 5-ft-6, who may bang heads against the roof or rear window--as a sticker inside the hatch lid warns. Entry/exit very tight.
Cargo Room
GT, auto. SE Class Average
4 4 2.5
Hatchback design, standard split folding rear seat are practical, but available subwoofer steals cargo space. Small-item storage OK, but many rivals do better.
Value within Class
GT, auto. SE Class Average
4 5 6.2
It's not that quick or refined even with the V6, and the basic design is aging, but Tiburon is a solid, capable sporty coupe. Budget-friendly prices and Hyundai's long warranties make it a good alternative to the Scion tC or a high-line Honda Civic coupe.
Total Score
GT, auto. SE Class Average
44 45 47.3 |

| this thread should be closed. the ignorance is amazing. all hail civics, they are of course the superior honda with their awesome fuel economy and shitty interiors (i know, i own one) tibs are just awesome too. who can argue with a korean car? feels like a benz inside according to some of you. they are cheap for a reason. jason has enough info to make a decision im pretty sure. threads gone to shit. |
