Get one of the new Sonatas, Spart.

'eh. if i get a hyundai before the new Tiburon comes out... it would either be an Elantra Hatch or possibly the Tucson

as just said... it appears it will be unveiled in 07, meaning it would prolly be released in late 07 (September most likely) and be tagged as an 08 model

I wonder if this site has had an impact on their decision??

Think about it. HKC said that HMC wanted to create a low budget car with good looks to attract young buyers. They succeeded, now those young buyers are gonna want a real sports car. I mean look, we're all about the same age on here. There are some old farts (tongue.gif) but I mean for the most part this is right up our alley.

I'm excited to see the new design.

This topic is so depressing, everyone abandoning the tib. It's depressing because I definitely won't be able to get one, and I'd never buy a new car because of depreciation value ...Maybe my next car will be an older 3000gt, older mustang, or supra

Guess I know what on of my first purchases will be after I get a job teaching. tongue.gif Can't wait to see what the production model looks like B) Oh, and I will never get rid of my tib. This would just be an excuse to build up the HP since it would no longer be an everyday driver. laugh.gif

I think I just felt a tingling sensation in my loins.

Ham vows to buy one. I'll use the 01 Tiburon as the winter beater. lol.gif
