What do you think about Hyundai Tiburon 2003, it looks sharp..

[8602081]

I'm thinking about getting the GT v6 with 6speed manual.

Tiburon.. Like the new look

Either this or Mazda Protege5 or Toyota Celica or Nissan Frontier extened cab truck.

saw one at the car show a few weeks back....i think they are sweet!

Damn! The GT has more displacement than my Probe GT. 2.7L

I've always like the Tiburon. I wish I could afford to get one...

To me it looks like a Cavalier mixed with a little Celica, Mustang and a V6. I like the look, but it seems to stubby and high off the ground. I like 'em sleek looking. ala Corvette'ish, RX7'ish, etc.

Pic1 - Mustang & Celica cross
Pic2 - Cavalier & Mustang cross
Pic3 - Cavalier
Pic4 - Wierd & Disturbing cross
Pic5 - Cavalier

Yeah, definitely a bit porky lookin... looks like a Mustang's porky younger brother. Front wheel drive... oh well.

Everyone else seems to think it smacks of Ferrari 456M.

Personally, I think they're halfway decent looking, & if the performance is decent I'd consider one.

Viper GTS

the 'gills' irk me substantially... aside from that, pretty nice.

I see a little bit of Supra, a little bit of Ferrari. And some BMW 3 series treatment to the lower portion of the bumper (especially the fog lights). Not bad bodywise. I heard this car ain't a lightweight either.............

 

[Fandu]

I don't see too much ferrari in there.....maybe it's just me

hmm, the automatic has better mileage than the shift stick!

 

[mrCide]

its not a bad lookin car.. 6spd v6 option..

but it'll end up being ~20k~ for a hyundai.. i'd rather save another few grand and get a used m3

EDIT: Hell i can get a '97 boxster for ~23k~

FWD just bothers me.. sorry.

 

[stinkeye]

with the lease on my 323i up in a couple weeks, I went to test drive the new Tiburon. I promptly walked out of the showroom when they informed me of the ground rules for a test drive: 1) no racing (i'm like, "O.K.") 2) no more than 5 miles on the drive total (again I say "Fine") 3) there is a $2,500 upcharge over list price!!! It was at that point (after I stopped laughing at the salesman) that i walked out. BTW, I ended up getting an Acura 3.2 TL. I think I like it even better than the Bimmer I'm about to part with!

Tiburon.... Isint that The Korean word for slow? anh, somethin about the huge wing of old that turns me off, but the new ones arent too bad..

Edmunds' Review
They don't seem to like it very much...


I like the rims

 

[GooberPHX420]

well, its certainly an assload nicer than the old model -

PLZ NOTE THIS IS MY 200th POST! I AM WIn!

If it's anything like my Elantra, I say get it. Hyundais have definitly changed their tune. I have 27k + miles on mine and it's not even a year old yet. Give it a test drive. And if the dealer does'nt want to haggle or is giving you a hard time, find another dealer. I got my Elantra for 12.3k out the door. First guy I talked to would'nt budge from 15k. Good luck!

Heh heh...I see a lot of the Supra in it...funny that it took Hyundai 10 years to figure out that Supras look cool
