<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (alex01tib @ Oct 2 2005, 02:27 PM)</div><div class='quotemain'>Well on the heaviness factor they may be thinking about the GK's and assume that the RD's weigh the same, dumbasses.

Yeah they were getting everything all f'd up. They just don't know. Keep in mind guys we are into our cars, they aren't. It's easy to blast other vehicles, especially minority ones like ours.

For all of you that think this is bogus, prove it to guys like them and make your car more powerful and better looking. Creating a gripe about it does nothing but get everyone's back up.

If you don't like what they said, go out there and do something about it.

We all know what the Beta is capable of.

Anybody notice how poorly run that site is too? Triple posts, swearing, leek speak, you name it! REDZMAN would have a heart attack over there. LOL wink1.gif

i think its because a fast tiburon is still a hyundai and the hyundai stigma (while slowly being replaced with one of higher quality) still remains with the older hyundai's

Its just so stupid. I think its because of the "old" hyundai name and the fact that people are ignorant and dont know how to research before they talk. None of these people know what we know and assume every Tiburon is like the new GK. Whenever I say I have a Tiburon people ask me "Is it the V6?" Come on. We know what our cars are capable of, and we should just ignore people who hate on them. Hell, I do. laugh.gif

Edit: Just posted in that forum btw..i couldnt resist. tongue.gif

Most of the uneducated people I talk to think that the GK's (GT V6 as they say) are like the fastest thing on the earth (probably because it's in NFSU or something, LOL)

well, for the numbers I have found in the Junkyards.. the GKs are much faster than their brakes. Everyone I have found (over a dozen) appears to have run into something hard in the front. Not a single one had rear or side damage.

I think about 8/10ths of the people in that craptacular forum at 16 years old... which doesn't help matters much. It really doesn't matter what they say because they have no idea what they are talking about. they are complete fanatics of whatever car they have and think they are the fastest person on the street. It's sad really.... makes me want to by a geo prizm make it a 10 second car... and then see what people say about it =P
Maturity level = 3 1/2 years old.... and that's giving them alittle credit
