Hyundai, bring back the '08 Tiburon!
This sports car is nearly perfect for the normal, everyday kind of fun ride for folks on a budget. It's sleek, handsome body feels like an expensive sports car without breaking the bank. It handles like a dream and yet provides the functions of a clunky two-door sedan with its roomy trunk, decent back passenger space, and flexibility.
The only improvement the Tiburon needs is to improve its 5-speed transmission so the fifth gear is a true cruising gear. The Mitsubishi transmission is very good, but the difference between 4th and 5th gear is so negligible it seems like it's a waste. The hydraulic clutch is smooth and responsive, and its repair costs are well within reason for its performance.
The Genesis replacement for this model has its purpose, and the Veloster looks awful, but the Tiburon is where the normal driver can go from bland to wow without breaking the bank. Bring the '08 Tiburon back, Hyundai!
