2000 Hyundai Tiburon Review

Introduction

reviewed by

New styling has given a fresh appearance to the Hyundai Tiburon, while a higher level of standard equipment improves its value.

Its design is even bolder than last year. But its spirited performance hasn't changed, with a 140-horsepower 2.0-liter engine, a fully independent sports suspension and four-wheel disc brakes with optional ABS. The Tiburon offers a good bang for the buck as most sport coupes with this level of performance come at a higher price, while similarly priced coupes can't match the Tiburon's performance.

It is a fun car to drive. It's balanced well in corners. It offers brisk acceleration performance. And it's backed by Hyundai's warranty, which has been extended to five years or 60,000 miles. It comes with five years worth of free 24-hour roadside assistance that covers emergency towing and lockout service. So the Tiburon is a great value wrapped in a sporty package. Next Page
