Why would recommend a tiburon a Hyundai tiburon they last long the gerbil.
Bought this car used it should only last me for about maybe a year or two and it is the last me all the way till now still running I recommend Hyundai to anybody tiburons are great. All I really had to do is keep it up check the oil change Juanita the same goes for the transmission fluid.

It is a small compact car, with little room, gets decent gas mileage and is fun to drive
Some of the equipment breaks sort of easily and seats wear

Good and fun to drive daily.
Fun car for low power. Handles very well and is comfortable to drive. Gas mileage has always been great and with good maintenance can remain that way. The worst part has been a running issue with heat reduction in the engine. All other features and amenities work as they should.

It is red and not seen in my area.
It's a very reliable car and it saves me gas. The only issue is that it's very old that the parts are starting to wear out. Some of the parts aren't made by manufacturer anymore or by Hyundai so they are hard to find. It is a very rare car. I do feel comfortable driving it and the mpg is outstanding
