2002 Hyundai Tiburon review from North America
"Great car and a Great bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far nothing has gone wrong other than one small spot of the leather wore through the surface, but the dealer replaced the entire seat cover.
One recall item (moon roof), I had no problem and I was given ride to and from work by the dealer so there was minimal inconvenience.
General comments?
Nice reliable car.
Great gas mileage 25 - 29 normally and 23 - 27 with AC running a lot.
While no V8 acceleration it does want to run 75 - 80 mph so I use the cruse at a lower speed a lot to avoid tickets.
Highly recomended this car if you want reliable low cost fun transportation with a warranty that is many times better than from Ford.
