Not calling BS, just asking for more information. I dont think anyone makes a gearset that would give you 3rd to 120 or you were spinning rpms that would tear a beta apart.

Not to mention I think I have been in two FWD cars that could break loose at 120 and neither were hyundais and both were using waste energy to produce more power.. alot of power.

I'm wondering if I misread his post... maybe he was burning out through 3rd and the speedo thought the tires were going 120? Or he had KSpec gauges so the 120km/h was really 75mph.

You lost the car 5 hours after you got your license?

It's really really hard to follow your story. PLEASE use commas and periods

i got my license in January 2009, and wanted a car that stood out and nobody else had. i didnt know much about cars at all because nobody in my family likes cars. I started looking for a car really hard in march or april. and one day on Autotrader i found my green tib. i knew that was the car for me. i bought it june 1, and drove it till Jan 15 '10 when the tranny finally blew. the car had ALOT of problems, but i dont regret buying it at all. i learned alot in the time i had it because of all the problems the car had. and then i got lucky, found another tib i could afford less than two week later. now the green ones sitting in the driveway as a part car and because i dont want to get rid of it

I love the tibs body lines, the main reason i got it.

Reason 2 is the uniqueness

Reason 3 is to see the look on the other guys face when he realizes that was a hyundai smile.gif

We totaled our sunfire and It was my wife's turn to pick the next car.,The Honda craze was in full bloom and I told her "anything but a honda", she picked the tib.

"i lost them because after spinning out the tibby my parents took them away,the spin out was that bad"

My bad for speed typing.ummm well when me and my pops are going 120 in 3rd, i wasnt spinning tires when it hit that mark.ooo and mph not kph, it whould burn out with both tires spinning in 1st 2nd 3rd but only half of 3rd. but i sware we left a v8 in the dust but the only thing that my dad could not beat was the fastest bmw ive ever seen. i love tiburons took me 5 years the truth speaks on those words alone.i never wantted any car we had a chance to get a 05 mazda rx8 when it was retailed at 15,000 4 12,000 250 mothly payment great deal, even had a body kit it was sweet. but guess what didnt do it i wantted a tiburon

The only car i want is a tiburon because of the 1st one i had.well...theres one more car 1993-1998 toyota supra my dream car. But thats what made me get a tiburon again lol, there was a 1998 mitsubishi eclipse on the lot when i got my first tiburon lmao. i really wannted a eclipse because of fast and furious ooo yea lol.but when my dad got back from test driving it, that was all she wrote. I had no say so, my dad wantted it.He told me alittle something one day he said to me, "son i have driven alot of cars, supra,rx7,porsche,mustangs and ect.. but that tiburon was the only car that scared me"
