1993 Hyundai Scoupe from North America - Comments

The only things that have gone wrong with this car are things that are to be expected with a 10-yr. old car:

I got a new clutch; it didn't really need it yet, but the used car dealer offered to replace it for cheap if I bought the car.

Front and rear brakes needed replaced soon after I got the car.

It needed a new starter, though this is probably a result of me (and all my friends) having to restart it a lot while learning to drive stick on this car.

AC doesn't work - this isn't a problem for me since I live in Ohio.

Bumpers need replaced, but that's only because I ran into a curb and then, one week later, ran into a really big rock. Red duct tape is currently holding both bumpers on, and it actually matches the color of my car quite nicely. Since fixing the bumpers would probably cost more than the car is worth, I'll just stick with the duct tape.

This is my first car and I love it. My parents were a little concerned since it was so small (my dad wanted me to get a 1997 Ford Taurus--ewww), but they bought it for me anyway. It turns out small is a good thing; I can fit in tiny parking spaces that everybody else has to drive past and look at wistfully. The downside to such a small car is driving on the highway on a windy day can be an adventure.

The gas mileage is great; I get around 34 mpg.

This car has been pretty reliable. I'll hate to give it up when it comes time to sell it.

I highly recommend this car to anyone who wants a cheap, fun-to-drive car.

Hey, I'm a new owner of a 1993 S coupe and so far I'm pretty satisfied with it. The only thing is that the stereo, on the display, it reads "6543" and I have no idea what it means. Someone told me that it's a code and the dealership will be able to help me out with the problem because the stereo is currently not working. Wondering if anyone had any experiences with that or any feedback that could help me out.

Yeah, but other than that it's a great little car, currently in the process of changing the front brake lines and 2 out of the 3 gas lines had a little leak in them, their good now though, just a few touch ups here and there. I bought it at an auction for 800 bucks and it says it has about 200 000 KM on it which isn't bad considering its twelve years old.

I would recommend it as a first car for sure, although I've only had it a week and yet to have any major problems with it.

I would rather say "I am the proud owner of Hyundai Scoupe". iIam very much satisfied with its performance. It's a reliable car and I guess every one would love to drive it. I would strongly recommend a Hyundai Scoupe to any other car in that range.
