1997 Hyundai Tiburon Base review from South Korea
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Found out that the automatic transmission can't handle a 18 year old that adds an extra 60bhp to its already 130. Therefore 2 transmissions in 20,000km. Otherwise drives perfect.
General comments?
Best looks in its class and many other classes. Fast off the line if you're looking for a standard (8.4 secs 0-60 off Carpoint. Msn.com) the Honda Civic Si is about 0.2 slower. Best of all an amazing 1/4 mile runner. 1.8L 4-cylinder running a 1/4 0.2 secs faster the Type-R.
