"Good for looks, bad for safety"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing major always good with warranty.

General comments?

Don't have a front end collision with this car. Especially with anything bigger than a small volkswagon cabrio. Very dangerous in crash. Front end damage in 10 mile rear end crash. Car was totaled, front end dipped under car in front when brakes were applied. Only 150.00 in damage to the car I hit.

My wife and I bought a 1998 Tiburon F X in Feb. 2001.

I was immediately impressed with the handling and smooth ride. I was really impressed when I drove it on a long straightaway one evening and found that any "add on double side taped antenna" blows off at 135+ MPH. I wasn't impressed with the antenna though because I had to shell out another $35 for a replacement.

Overall, My wife and I feel safer in the Tiburon than we do in my 1980 full size Chev truck.
