2008 Hyundai Tiburon GS Sport review from North America
"The price is super good for this type of sports car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Outdoor temperature censor defective - replaced under warranty.
When temperature dropped below 0 celsius, the car would take about 30 second to start - something with one valve needed adjustment.
That's all.
General comments?
I still prefer my 1999 model, as it felt more comfortable and was smaller too. But I don't mind not having any more repair bills, peace of mind for 5 years.
The car handles very well and is comfortable, even though the armrest could be a bit lower as I am tall.
Fuel consumption is a bit high for a 4 cyl.
I am a very happy driver.
