hyundai motor co. sucks fag ballz.. you gotta wonder if that engine has their 10 Year/100,000 mile Warranty cause it probably needs to be fixed every 250 miles like all their other cars.

Have you ever heard of "The Flea"? It's a Hyundai Accent, stock bottomend 1.5L running 9 sec 1/4mi's. Go to Puerto Rico and say a Hyundai is slow! They have 13 sec daily driven Accents, Scoupes and more. The Elantra takes a 4g63t bolted in! There's 4g61T/63T powered Excels from the late 80's. It would blow your mind how fast you can make a Hyundai with a Hyundai engine or Mitsubishi engine. Broaden your horizons.

Edit: There's a bunch of uneducated wannabe enthusiast in this thread. Hyundai's don't suck and are not unreliable. You guuys (some of you) have this same stubborness when it comes to V8's. Grow up, go read and research stuff before you knock it.

hey, I don't like Hyundais. I said it. It's my opinion. the depreciation value of hyundais and kias are so bad its unbelievable. Everyone around here calls them throw away cars. If the car had some value into it I might consider it. and, if the aftermarket parts for the tiburon are so good then why doesn't california peope support them as much?

how does a jetski get more HP than an SI?
because the jetski is turbocharged and the B16 is not.

Is that how you decide what car you're gonna have? If Hyundai's were HOT and heavily supported in Cali, would you have one? I didn't know Cali peeps decided what cars to modify for everyone else.

actually, I already know what kinda car i'm gonna have. california didn't decide that. but the majority of the tuners/parts shops are their so what the people in california buy and make popular, and what the california tuners and their race cars make popular, then that's what I get over here in MA.

If you can swap a 93,000HP into a Honda then I wouldn't call it shit either. Honda's are also SLOW and some of them are quite ugly at that too. Also note, I haven't seen any Hyundais sporting APC winshield stickers but I've seen a shitload of Hondas. Idiots like you make all of us Honda owners look bad. Also the new Tiburon looks quite nice, underpowered but still looks nice.

:

exactly.

too many kids think cars without vtec just sucks.
IMO, kia still sucks, but hyundai has changed. their reliability has been proven to be good as japanese imports now.
And good point about Puerto Rico. Go to Tiburon forums. You'll be surprised. :

People just think they "suck" when they dont know shit.
Although, i wouldn't buy them yet except the new tiburon GT and Santa Fe.
But i do definitely agree that STILL honda is behind japanese technology.

Its true about ships. korea is top Number 1 manufacturer in the world for ships and its engines. No country in the world yet can make better ships than them.

first of all no hyundai dollar for dollar compares with a civic, i have a friend that has a 99 tiburon and it already feels tired. i had an 89 excel and it was a piece of shit. a also had a colt of the same year. a lot of the same parts but craftsmanship in the excel was way down. and for the money the new tiburon doesnt offer much of an incentive to buy because even a base model civic with the difference in price added to performance should be faster and hold its resale value better. also if they were so good why were Toyota and honda rated better for quality and resale value. hell even gm is rated better than hyundai. go figure. i actually believe the sunfire / cavalier is better than the tiburon for the money . and gm is starting to offer performance parts for these cars and their powerful ecotec engines. note i said powerful. 150 hp without vtec is not bad and is more than the non vtec preludes of the same displacement. but hyundais 180 hp v6 is a joke . and as for the puertoricans or whatever running a stock bottom end 1.5 liter hyundai in the nines .. bullshit. you can destroy these engines with a single misshift. they would have to have a built bottom end and stronger head bolts. not to mention a seriously reworked suspension and lsd to achieve this.

What you have in your sig shows me how ignorant you are. "P.A.D.D."

Perhaps I should start a group myself, P.A.I.D; People Against Ignorant Domestiphobes. It has a nice ring to it...
