I love this car.

Any comments about it? I am thinking about getting it.

It is okay. The new ones look far better than the older ones. Also, they have decent power. But then again... it is a Hyundai. That loses points right there. :-S

Hmm...I think you summed it up well Keith.

Try before you buy and check other cars in the same class.

My pick would be the Nissan SX Spec R which is $2500 US more expensive. Nissan has far greater knowledge when it comes to sports cars too ;p

I would reccomend getting something like this over a Tiburon.

its a nice car, and also one of the poorest built cars on the road. it should have more power out of that v6. when it first came out Hyundai lied about how much horsepower it had. they said it has 180 and really it has 160.. and thats nothing to be proud of.. most 4cyl makes that... maybe they will come out with a turbo charged 200+hp version :D

Get some nice rims. I recommend the ones that are 39th on the list. "SSR Compitition. 18x7.5", though they cost a bit much. :\
