2008 Hyundai Tiburon 2.0 liter 4 cylinder from North America
Summary:
Very nice car for the price I paid; the quality seems very good
Faults:
Engine warning sensor came on at 15000km - faulty knock sensor - covered by warranty.
Small suspension part broke at 16000km - covered by warranty.
Switch to pop trunk broke at 18000km - covered by warranty.
General Comments:
Overall, it is a very nice car. I am very pleased with the purchase and would have considered buying a new one in the future if they were still made. I would not however consider the Genesis unless they came out with an all wheel drive version, as we get a lot of snow.
I purchased the car for a lot less than list, as they were clearing them out to bring in the Genesis.
The ride quality is good, considering it has a somewhat sporty suspension.
Acceleration is decent for a regular 4cyl.
Pros:
Great look, good price for the performance, factory stereo is quite good, no major issues in first 20,000km, handles better than my Acura did.
Cons:
Paint quality is not great. There are scratches in the clear coat in places where I never touch the car. Arm rests are uncomfortable on long rides. No key-less trunk latch.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know
