2001 Hyundai Tiburon SE 2.0 from North America
Summary:
So far so good
Faults:
Not too much to list here yet as I've only had this 2001 Tiburon for 6 weeks.
Prior to buying it I had a Hyundai garage inspect it and it needed a rear strut as it was leaking. There was a leaking rad hose, and required two new front tires.
General Comments:
I bought this car because of the value, and looks. Also because of the pretty good comments and ratings I found while researching used cars.
I am overall pretty happy so far.
My main concern is an annoying vibration I get once the tachometer hits 3000 rpm. It goes away as soon as 3000 rpm is surpassed. Does anyone else experience this and if so what did you do?
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know

I have that same problem. I took my car to a shop and they told me I needed a tune up. I got the tune up and it kept doing it. I cannot drive my 2001 Hyundai Tiburon past 63mph and 300rpm's or it will shake. I have not yet found the reason, but now I am having another problem... my car won't start? It seems to want to start, but it won't turn over all the way it makes a grinding noise. I am taking it to the shop once again and will comment later as to what is wrong. If you find out anything about the shaking on your vehicle let me know.
