2003 Hyundai Tiburon GT review from North America
"I am so sad to realize that my car is all looks"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My A/c didn't work 2 weeks after I got the car.
My right lower arm broke at 67000
My CV joint is messed up at 68000 and needs replacement.
The parts for this car are very expensive.
General comments?
My car looks nice and that's the only good thing it has. I am so sad to realize that my car only looks good and has very poor performance. I read the reviews and i was very disapointed because most of them are the same model as mine, 2003 Tiburon GT. I guess i picked a bad car. Many people told me that it wasn't a good car but i fell in love with it. It is so cute and when i first drove it i did feel the difference from my honda civic to this one feeling more weak but i didn't care because it looked so nice. Bad choice i had to replace the whole Air conditioning system, the brakes sound weird and may need replacement soon, and my lower arm and cv joint are messed up. I mainly drive on the Highway so there is no reason for this things to go bad. I still love my car but i wish it was in better shape. His name's Sharkyboy!
