EDIT: I should be clear, I did all of that mileage in 4.5 years too. Hyundai has been good and reliable since '01ish.


Huh, so that WASN'T you I saw broke down on the side of the road yesterday?

Like I said, Hyundais have been good for a while. I'd be more worried about honda reliability right now due to oil dilution or toyota's reliability with a subaru or bmw motor in the car.

I tend to believe its around 2011 when they went from suck to not suck.

Anything older than that is a hit or miss type deal.

I was just kidding on my reply back to you, but Hyundai, Kia, Genesis have never been known for overall reliability, and they have certainly had their major problems as of late.

Your Tiburon may be that one example that goes against what has been widely known for many years, but it did give me an idea....

Meh, the sideview looks like the mid 90's green Lumina LTZ we owned at one point (nice car, but nothing exciting).

I think I'm with @Tcoat on this one.

I'm seeing a little Polestar 1 influence, especially the side profile:
