I actually got to see and get inside the new 2009 Tiburon. I didn't even know what it was at first cause I was doing a market research on cars and it was one of 5 cars with the same color and all were coupes. Looks sexy, sporty, cleaner lines and a little elegant. The rear quarter panels reminded me of an acura rsx cause I have one, but the new Tiburon had wider wheels and looked better there. I wish it was a little longer for better knee room in back between the front seat and rear seats, it's shorter than the 08 Accord Coupe. The rear tailights could have a little more style to them. It does have power with a V6 3.7 liter, 18 mpg city 20-22 road, rear wheel drive and it will sell for about $26,000. They also might have a V4 2.0 Liter Turbo with better fuel mileage. The interrior was all black which I didn't care for with the metal looking trim. Unfortunately I did not have the chance to drive it. Will give it a shot when it comes out but for the value, reliability, performance and gas mileage, I would still go with the 2008 Accord Coupe. But the Tiburon will turn some more heads this time around for buyers that have a bigger pocket book as well.
