Any Hyundai Tiburon Drivers Out There?

Hey, just wondering if there are any Tiburon drivers out there.
I'm seriously considering buying one, but I want to know how people rate them for handling/power/comfort and all that.

He just doesn't want you to have a 10Yr warranty on your car.

hmmm, if theres a 10yr warranty on them, then any breakdowns would be covered, would they not? unless you void the warranty by modding stuff....

And what new brand of car is not immune to the same problems? Fak me, look at a Cobalts door panels the wrong way and plastic flakes off. The Hyundai is a good little car dude. We just had a 1990 Excel through here the other day still going strong.

sweet.
yea, im definately going imports (toyota, acura, volkswagen, hyundai) because they last a long time, especially toyotas!

i had a 1989 V6 toyota camry that had over 400000k on it, and it was still going strong! then on Christmas eve i totaled it. my camry didnt have too much work done to it either, major stuff was a new tranny and a new front axle. it had barely any rust on it too.

I would only look at the latest body style Tiburon. The previous ones, IMO, looked like puke.
