hi guys, what's your take on this? i just saw this vehicle in the net but i don't know anything about this car. is this a good buy? is this really a sports car? or does it only looks like one?
I've seen one parking in shanghai last May. Takaw tingin mukhang sports car kasi napa wow nga ko seeing that its from Hyundai. Ganda exterior but I don't have any idea if the engine equally awesome.
Had the chance to drive the 1st gen of these babies (just like the one below) when I was still connected to an insurance firm. One of our agents (who happened to be my friend) had one. Despite it's not-so-good-looking exterior, the car ran like a dream. Dunno if my friend had his coupe modded but it has a...subtle low-level growl that can make you image that you are indeed inside a sports car.

Only two variants here... the 2.0 M/T and 2.0 A/T... 138 hp. The M/T is (of course) quicker, with a 0-100kph of around 9 seconds. The A/T is more of a boulevard cruiser, but it has that great moonroof.
Not a bad car, good handling (especially since the 2.0 we get isn't as nose heavy as the V6 version), terrific looks, and more space than you'd think in the back. Unless you're going to Baguio, the back seat is comfortable enough... especially considering it's only a coupe. The car can hit 200kph+ on the highways, but it's a bit of a guzzler, especially considering it's only a 2.0.
I'd buy one if I had 900k pesos for a second car...

Would you guys choose this car over the new ford focus? Given that the estimated price of the ford focus is about the same as the hyundai coupe..
If you only drive by yourself or have a single passenger most of the time, then the Hyundai Coupe is a great buy!
Handling was a bit ok... ditto for acceleration. The interior is also nicely done... though the materials used are just a notch below current Jap standards.
The tiburon looks good to me. Here's a picture of my friends car which I got to drive.lady driver btw. She just changed her wheels and added X-plod amps and 10"subs.
the interior is nice as well. Rear is good only for kids though.
hmmm looks nice, but what about the resale value and the quality of the car? I was told that since its a hyundai the quality is not good.. can i get your opinion on this?
The interior of the A/T FX Coupe version here has more color. It's done up in a tan leather that really looks italianate.
As for quality, it's not any worse than the middle tier japanese brands are now. Hyundai has come a long way... although it is nowhere near a Toyota for long term reliability, and will suffer a lot of depreciation just for the fact that it's a Hyundai.
On the other hand, seeing as it's a low volume model with good looks, I don't think it's going t be cheap secondhand anytime soon.
