Currently an owner of a 03 V6. Built with a turbo and many other mods. GT comes with Cast piston heads, but Forged rods and crank. Handling plenty of boost as of now. Love my Tiburon.
I have a similar car with a different front bumper, but it's even better. Mine has a 2.0 engine. It's an amazing car that still turns heads on the streets. Even today, it looks modern. Indistructable engine! That think don't know how to fail.
Wow great new video! That's definitely a forgotten one. Everytime i think of your channel I think of the Celica video, another forgotten 💎 I'm glad this new one popped up on my feed I might not have noticed you uploaded a new one!
there’s also an option for 3 little gauges under the radio, has torque, fuel km/10L and voltage. But man I wish the voltage one was an oil gauge. Also heated seats were an option on the 2002-2006 years but it’s really rare.
Hey man, just found your channel and I think your review style and the way you go into depth is excellent! Great video man, hoping to get one of these as my first car
Great review. These were a forgotten treasure IMO. It looks better than its competitors and was offered in a 6 speed manual V6 that sounded amazing. Cant say the same for the integra and celica.
I’ve got the V6 with a 4 speed and a fox quad tip catback exhaust and in tiptronic she’s goes hard. second gear sounds and feels so good around the windy roads
I've got a 2005 2.0l 16v hyundai coupe gen 3.5 facelift and it's a great car keep up with mantaince and they're great cars my car is an se with gls upgrades. so it's 143 bhp not 138 and has leather seats which I don't think the se came wurh. so this car has alot of stuff as standard. ac sunroof pas and so on. best car I've owned
I would love to do a review on one of those! They are quite the rarity now a days. I always thought they were unique. Hopefully some day I can find one.
This car was overlooked purely because Hyundai had no brand prestige back then and still had a reputation for being unreliable. The Elantra that this car was based on was seen as an cheaply made unreliable shitbox for people who couldn't afford a Corolla so a 2 door sports sedan built from the same platform was seen as a more expensive less practical version of that. It's too bad because when you actually drive one they're pretty nice.
I loved my Tiburon and miss it to this day but truthfully I don't think it was the best car. Had especially poor handling, drifted around way too many corners on accident in light rain and the winters were hell.
Probably could've found a better Tibby to review but a lot of these are in much worse condition than that one. I've had my 2008 GT for almost 10 years now and have never once considered selling it. Most people just point and laugh never giving it a chance because its a Hyundai. Alright whatever go out and buy your Civic Si and blend in with the rest of the sheep.
I love mine to bits and definitely won’t be considering getting rid of it until either it’s irreparably damaged or I genuinely can no longer afford repairs.
Glad people are finally seeing Tiburons as hidden gems, great value, well designed and a unique car for the money at the time and still now
I love mine to pieces
I bought my all black 2003 GTV6, brand new from the dealer, still love driving this little space capsule, it my only ride for 20+ years!
I bought a tiburon 1 month ago and I cant get enough of it :,)

Two amazing cars I gotta say

Ive had a 2006 hyundai tiburon GT for 5 years. been fairly reliable. i enjoy it.

Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed the format. I love hearing this.

I would've loved to have tried the V6 in this vehicle to see how much better/engaging it would be to drive. Thanks for the comment!
@drivecore2021 I have a V6, it's not fast but the V6 noise and the weight is very cool. I've never driven the 4 cylinder haha

The V6 isn't great though tbh. 172hp from a 2.7L V6 is pretty sad. The Celica made more horsepower, and the GSR integra made 2HP less.
the tiburon / hyundai coupe 1998 2.0 RD has 2.0L that can take boost up to 20psi with stock internals!

You should really do a video on the last gen mercury cougar in silver, i would love to see that. Another gem that's forgotten
I would love to do a review on one of those! They are quite the rarity now a days. I always thought they were unique. Hopefully some day I can find one.
Great review!
If they had just made these RWD man they would have had something special. still miss mine but they missed a huge opportunity.
When they discontinued this car Hyundai made the Genesis Coupe which was RWD.
@@ragingfred I know I just always thought the tiburon looked way better. Especially the last generation.

It's because of the Tiburon that the Genesis was made. Stopped Tiburon Production to start the genesis coupe.

Yeah I wonder what happened to the side door

It's good as a cheap sports coupe.
That's my car model 🔥✋💯
