The
2008 Hyundai Tiburon is a stylish four-seat sports car that can be bought for $18,000 to $23,000. Its competition is the
Mitsubishi Eclipse, which starts at about $2000 more. The Tiburon comes with either a four-cylinder or V6 engine; even with the V6, the power is modest but the exhaust note is sporty. The transmission, suspension, brakes and bucket seats are all good. If you want a new sports car but don't want to spend a lot, the Tiburon is worth considering.
