2003 Hyundai Tiburon GSR review from North America
"Inexpensive, sporty and fun. Minor problems"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Key fob didn't work.
Passenger door doesn't lock.
LCD on the head unit is dim/missing pixels.
General comments?
The car is good for what it is: A sporty-looking economy car with balls.
I would not go so far as to call it a sports car, but it is fun to drive.
At 44k miles I'm surprised things are already going wrong with it, but the dealer I bought it from will fix everything, so it's really not that big of a deal to me.
The sound system is very nice for a stock system, and I really like that they offered a six speed. Once I have owned the car for a while, I will come back and make a report on how reliable it has been.
