Front bumper reminds me of the Modena for some reason.

I like it. It fixes the damage Hyundai did to the car this past year. IMO, they really screwed up what was a descent looking coupe.

call me narrow-minded but I just can't like tib. They are definitely getting better and better but that italicized H repels me.

Looks like one of those Anime rabbits with the huge teeth and the slanted eyes.


Four thumbs down.

Dude! The tiburon is a horrible piece of korean sh*t of a car, that thing is ugly, it copied the supra, the z, my grandma's pinto, and soooo over priced for what it is, the new rwd version is gonna suck too because of that honda wannabe badge on the hood. I'd rather have a Geo Prizm than that because at least it's a corolla.
There, I just saved everyone's flaming breath, lol.

Nah, the tiburon is a good car for what it is. I mean 21K (probably different now) gets you the full loaded v6 model with leather and what not. I sat in one and felt everything, feels like quality, on par with japanese makes in that price range but with a bit more style imo. Open the hood and it couldve came from a german make, everything is nicely covered. Every angle of the car has a nice view. I mean the car is a viable option, but I do admit it is outclassed by the rsx type S which isnt that much more. They almost had it and im sure people got some good deals on these cars, plus 10 year warranty back then.
It's a great value and I've been hearing people been getting some decent power out of the motor. As I said, cant wait to see the new rwd coupe- rumor is that it's getting a modular V8 from the Ford family. Now before everyone goes on saying how thats crappy, the ford V8 is a workhorse of an engine and that basically guarantees modability right out of the box without any real issues. With an independent rear suspension and a diet (comparatively speaking to the mustang), car should be a contender. Plus, judging from teh spy pics of teh car and its interior, should look the part as well.
=O Lol as I was reading this I was thinking, Man... It was inevitable. But surprised me haha. As for the people who didn't like it, you're entitled to your opinions and they were unbiasedly accepted. Not sure if "unbiasedly" is a real word. Also it's not my car, but boy I wouldn't mind haven't a Tib as my first manual car. Just stung my korean pride, that's all ='( That kit looks hot to me also. As I said before performance-wise it is limited. The headlights look like S15's.

Anyways for those who want to see more of the kit I've provided you with pictures, courtesy of NewTiburon forum website and the poster RNTibbyBoy.

The rears is kind of gaudy but it reminds me of an RX8 with that rear lip thing.
