2001 Hyundai Tiburon review from North America
"This is a beautiful, economic, reliable, fun car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing went wrong with this car that was not normal wear and tear, such as replacing brake pads, wiper blades, headlamp, etc.
General comments?
This is a great little car. Its styling is beautiful, and for my 5’6” size, very comfortable. Not quite as good for my 6’2” son to drive though. The back seat is cramped for passengers, but okay for short trips. This car has very good, easily accessed, cargo space with the back seats folded down and the hatchback door. I bought this car to conserve fuel and have not been disappointed. It also has great pick-up and handling for a fuel-efficient 4L engine. Unfortunately, it was totaled in an accident last week, but I am replacing it with a new Tiburon. I liked the body styling of the 2001 a bit better than the 2006.
