Oh I know; you’re right Marls. A Tiburon is so much better in quality and just all around better than other sports cars like the newer Eclipses and Cougars and such. Not an American made car but who cares; it’s better than most American made and a hell of a lot sexier! lol

I've got a black 2005 Tiburon. 5 speed manual and I'm trying to figure out some accessories and such to add to it.. but I can't seem to find any sites on the internet that have what I'm looking for! Does anyone know of any good sites with things like colored bulbs for your dashboard or like cool stuff like that? Thanks oh, and I love the 2008 Tiburon. Hottest car ever, next to the Genesis of course. If I could pick any car in the world it'd be a 2008 Hyundai Tiburon. Special Edition – 6 cylinder, 6 speed manual! Midnight blue……hell yeah:):):)

I have the 2005 Tiburon its a brilliant car, in every respect and to be honest if you dont get lead footed and keep an eye on the middle gauge which shows fuel economy they are the most awesome v6 on the market.. ive noticed a few knockers who love the 'big brands' but its really old thinking now.. the world has more than just Nissans and Subarus… get with the programme guys…as for the new model I do like it but theres something more aggresive with the 05/06 Models ILl stick with mine

Sherry, you said you were looking at the Mustang, which is also rear-wheel-drive, so I thought that was OK. You can still drive RWD cars in the winter – most of them have good traction and stability controls nowadays.

Hey chris, your website…duh! I thought about that after i wrote the comment. The genesis is rear wheel drive? Thats crazy though…so it will be more like a park in the garage all winter and just drive in the summer! I need something for all year so i'm definately going with the tiburon. Now i seen how someone else was saying how the newer tiburons look kinda funny in the front like they're smiling and thats the only thing i'm not crazy about on the newer ones, but either way i still love the tiburon and i'm gonna go ahead and purchase my very last one…

Sherry, I don't work for a dealership, this is my website. My positive opinion of the Genesis Coupe is completely unbiased – I really do like it that much

The Genesis is (in my opinion) better looking, it's rear wheel drive, much more powerful, comes with much more standard equipment, and more configurable. Although the Tiburon is less expensive. Either way, let me know what you decide.

Hey chris…so do you work for a dealership? I seen the new genesis and i dont think they are much compairison to the tiburon. Dont get me wrong, they look like a decent car but i still think the tiburon has a much sportier look to them. I'm stickin with the tiburon for now, i get an awsome rebate and 1500 in owner loyalty so thats the best route for me right now. Thanks anyhow.

Hi Sherry, I love the style of the new Tiburons, but you should also consider the http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2044799-10364102?url=http%3A%2F%2 Fwww.edmunds.com%2Fhyundai%2Fgenesiscoupe%2F2010%2Findex.html” target=”_blank”>Hyundai Genesis Coupe. Here's a link to the Genesis Coupe R-Spec, which is a cool bare-bones track configuration.

The base Coupe starts at only $22K and comes with a lot of standard equipment. You should definitely check it out, it will compete with the Mustang, it looks great, and it's RWD: http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2044799-10364102?url=http%3A%2F%2 Fwww.edmunds.com%2Fhyundai%2Fgenesiscoupe%2F2010%2Findex.html” target=”_blank”>Hyundai Genesis Coupe.

Hello all you tiburon lovers! I am a freak about my tiburon and so is everyone else too! I started off with a plain 4 cyl. and moved up to a gt v6 its a maroon kinda color which i wasnt wild about but the car is hot! I'm makin my third move now…in a few days i will have a silver SE..even hotter..I absoultely love the spoiler on these!!!! I was actually considering a mustang but went to the dealership and looked at one and the freakin thing was plain, no thanks Ford I'll stick with my hyundai! I'm very excited about getting my 2008 tib but also very upset they are no longer making them…who gave the monkey crack??? These cars are so sporty and sleek and for the price you cant beat it!!! Wish me luck in my new SE 6 speed!!!

My mom had both a 2003 and a 2006 tiburon both of them being the V6 with the 6 speed transmission and they were both very reliable cars

So I recently got a black 08 Tiburon GT limited andddd I love it! how could you guys think the new front end is ugly??? The new 08 body is so sexy My only grumble about it is my downgrade on power.. im looking to put a supercharger on it though… i used to own a 95 Camaro Z28 sooo im really missing the power of the V8 that i used to have compared to my V6 Tib. My friends say ive come to the dark side which i believe is true hahaha. its addicting modification wise.

I don't know, I think the whole car turned out to look really good altogether. I see what you're saying though Chris; when you look at the front bumber up-close it does look kinda silly.

I also wish it got better fuel economy and/or power. It doesn't seem proportional for this car. 138 horsepower and only 20/27 mpg? The Civic is way better on fuel even with 2 more HP.

I bought this back in March cuz it was new, and hated it until I finally got a body kit on it, now I love it…..the stock front bumper is just fugly, looks like it's smiling at you.

whats up people how are you today, I like my car, had it up to 140 but back out of it (ran out of road) cant tell if it has a governor or not. It just needs a little more power I mean I had a supercharged mustang and I wanted more power I just think when you get used to the power you have you want more, if you like power (I love power) but I really like my hyundai didnt think I would ever say that a hyundai who knew. It will be at the top soon if not already there. It's a 2007 blue
