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!

Personally, I think the GK Tiburon (2003-up) is a much better car than the RD Tiburon (2001-older).

Yeah, but on the other hand... that's a lot more miles.  What do you think makes the later Tib better, NR?  I kind of like the styling on the older ones better.  If it were me, I'd take the older one.

(Some help, huh?  One vote for each one!)

I'd run a Carfax on both and then decide.  Ha!

Personally, I think the GK's not only look better but are built on a better platform.
