2003 Hyundai Tiburon GT review from North America
"It is well worth $21,000"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had 3 transmissions since taking ownership of the car.
Sunroof shade has broken and became stuck.
E.C.M. was fried due to short in the wires; which led to a bad TP sensor, bad alternator, and battery.
10" OEM subwoofer has blown.
Shift-knob button has broken twice.
Catalytic converters have gone bad, and emissions are horrible.
General comments?
Most of the problems associated with the car are thanks to my handy workmanship and awesome driving skills. The rest of the problems are due to the collision center that repaired my car when it was broken into last spring.
The car has an awesome warranty though!
