2005 Hyundai Tiburon GT review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My friend had this car, I wanted one for a long time. She loved this car. The only thing I know that went wrong was that she had to replace the battery about 3 times; the dealership said it had to do with the system she had in her car, however I think this is so they didn't have to replace the battery under the warranty.
Also the check engine light came on once after getting stuck in the snow, she was on her way to get it looked at when a truck hit her, totaling the car =(
General comments?
From being in this car many times, she was a very confident driver, it picked up speed very well I suppose. However my 4 cylinder can probably pick it up just as quick.
It's a very sporty car, which I liked, and I loved the leather interior, made it more comfortable to be in.
I loved this car and so did she, it's a shame it was wrecked.
