need advice in buying a tiburon

Hi guys,

I was looking to buy a Tiburon...this is my first experience with a Hyundai and two Tiburons in particular I was looking at were:

(1) 2003 SE 5 spd., 118K, leather, s/r, power everything for $7900 CAD

(2) 2001 SE 5 spd., 30K, s/r power everything for $7900 CAD



The 2001 has a very low mileage but obviously it is an older car....I was hoping to get some advice on the quoted prices as well as common mech/maintenance problems with both cars...at what mileage do the cars start giving serious problems. greatly appreciated!

My advise is to stay away from both, what you want is a 2004 or newer (genesis coupe). The 2001 styling is just plain awful so get the remodeled tiburon but not the 03. I have a 2003 GS-R and have had many problmes. There was a class action lawsuit against Hyundai in California because clutch failure was so prominent in the 2003 model ($2000 repair). With an '03 you can also expect the BCM ($1200 repair) to go and your door lock actuators will definitely need replacing.
