1999 Hyundai Tiburon SE
Summary:
Excellent affordable sports car
General Comments:
I have been happy overall with my Tiburon. I have had it now for 7 years, and really didn't have to do much apart from wear and tear like brakes and tires. I also had to replace the sensor, which is apparently a weakness on this vehicle.
I go to a Hyundai dealer and get excellent service.
I love the way it feels, and would recommend this car to anyone who wants an affordable sports car.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

That sounds like you have a serious engine problems, loose rocker or timing could be off.
Is there a turbo on the car?
And who owned it before you, sounds like it was rotted out by a kid, not driving properly.
The Tiburon engine DOHC 2.0 is one of the most dependable motors around.
I would take it back if you can, and test drive the next car you plan on buying.
