Well folks, had to part ways with my white 1999 Turbo Charged Tiburon......























Yeah, um, hell no!! Been through thick and thin with that car! Plus, she's just starting to get fast! Been tracking down a friggin horrible electrical gremlin and finally found it! Damn ignition switch was going faulty! Many plans for her this winter. Next summer she'll be turnin heads and snapping necks!



Anyway, I was in need of a good reliable commuter that was safe, got good MPG, and was still fun to drive and walk up to! So I picked up this R-Spec for just under 20k, 19,900 brand new!! Photos are crummy and shes dirty ATM, will post some new ones in the days to come.



Let me know what you think!















So far, I have gotten the Windows tinted to 30%, Clear bra, 3D Maxpider weather mats, Veloster rear cargo mat, and just ordered winter rims and tread. Not much planned in the way of performance mods, shes fast enough and gets good mileage so far, around 30mpg with 90% city driving. When I really want to go fast, well, thats when the Tib ventures out of the garage for an afternoon!

 

Congrats on the purchase! I really like the interiors of the veloster.

 

 

Nice. Even my slow NAV gets looks all day. Great price you got there too!

 

cool lil daily mang

 

Thanks guys! Yeah, the interior rocks! Has the red leather seats. Already got 2 compliments on just the interior by total strangers! And the price was great. No complaints there!

 

I hate my Veloster, it isnt the turbo model but I dont think that would be enough of an upgrade to steer my opinion of it...Dont get me wrong it is a nice looking car, OK on fuel and nimbly to drive but it just doesnt fit my lifestyle.



I also have a black model and it looks AMAZING right after you clean it...the other 97% of the time it isnt as nice.

 

You say not much is planned for it, but I said the same thing for mine. lol You'll start modding it before you know it.

 

Beautiful car! Hows the trunk space of it?

 

It actually has a lot of room in the trunk! Quite a bit more then my sisters Soul. I'd say its on par with the amount of cargo space the Tiburon has, maybe a bit more honestly.



FYI, Hyundais OEM cargo tray for the Turbo Velosters is fantastic! Fits perfect and also protects the entire backs of the seats.
