G vs TIBURON

I came up against the new Tiburon. Had the V6. It was me about 2-3 car lengths till about 60 after that see ya. I researched the Tiburon (172 horses) stock. The car is pretty light but motor is weak as HE##.

I always assumed they were weak, and no I did not start with the guy, he asked for it multiple times befor I let him have it.

Re: G vs TIBURON

tiburon is not that fast at all... I once raced tiburon in my friend's RSX-S.. I was doing 80 MPH and I downshift to fourth gear... BAMMM.. the VTEC was on and gave the tiburon a good spanking...

Re: G vs TIBURON

What does being Korean have to do with buying a korean car? I buy things based on quality and not where I'm from and I think it's stupid to do so. I knew an idiot who thought he was an all-star korean and use to say that he'd buy a paper bag and wear them as shoes if they were made in Korea. He also use to make ludicrous claims that the Tiburon is a better car than any Japenese car (obviously blinded by his pseudo-patriotism). Needless to say, he drives a Nissan Maxima and is the epitome of stupidity. God, (most) fobs are retarded.

Re: G vs TIBURON

For the money, you can't beat it. It looks are based on a Ferrari, it has a small and light V6, 6 speed AND aftermarket support. Personally, if my budget were stingier, I'd have bought one. Hyundai was ranked #3 on new car reliability last year.

Re: G vs TIBURON

i'm korean but i hate the tiburon. i've said this before.
BUT out of all the korean cars i know, i think tiburon is one of the better ones. engine sucks as hell and i think from like 30-50 mph it's like a slug. hook it up right and it'll be a good car. but of course the G35 will always be better. [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]
