I was taking some survey thing earlier, and it asked me what kind of car I drove. I thought about it, and I don't know...what would you consider your Tib? I put down sports car.

I was tempted to put beater because it technically is, but I felt a little pang in my heart for my Tib so I put coupe.

Definately A sports car. Low end sports car granted, will not compete against a fararri or *name of lighweight powerfull car here*, but think about all of the 2 DR coupes that it DOES waste.... We aren't driving honda civics here. Metro is a coupe, the escort is a coupe.... This car is in the same line of cars as the GTV6 which is now a pwn'in sports car with that V6.... but i like the RD2 body style better. Most importanly, Tiburon is fun to drive.

Look at this picture here below.... is that a sports car or what?

As I own two sports cars currently and I have owned a LOT more in the past.. I consider the Tib a sports coupe. A little softer and slower than a true sports car, but also a little more luxurious and practical too.

^^ Agree with Mad... calling the Tib a sports car is going a little far. I would either call the Tib an economy car or a coupe, class-wise. Kelly Bluebook and all the online sites call it a coupe. Hyundai doesn't make sports cars. lol.gif
