2003 Hyundai Tiburon
This would be a great project for somebody that knows a mechanic or has the desire to work on cars. My car repair days are behind me, so now it's your turn!

Details:
V6 DOHC GT 2.6L
6-speed manual transmission
125000 miles, all original except for clutch at 40k and air compressor last year.
Mild paint fading due to age, but has been garage kept for most of it's life.
Parking brake cable needs adjustment or replacement.
Passenger exterior door handle is broken. I have a replacement already.
Driver exterior door handle is about to break, but still works. I have a replacement.
Both windows do not work. I have a replacement motor and regulator.
Air conditioner has gone out. Possibly due to the used compressor I installed last year, or some other issue. I have not troubleshot this.
The head gasket is believed to be damaged due to an overheating situation. I believe the water pump failed causing a dangerous overheating event. The radiator has a crack due to exhaust gases being forced into the cooling system. Basically, I didn't notice the overheat until steam appeared from the engine compartment. At that time I immediately pulled over and turned off the engine. The mechanic who reviewed the car said the head gasket is most likely damaged, but unsure until the engine is pulled apart.

The engine does start and it runs rough. With the radiator crack, I would recommend a tow pickup and not a drive away.

Brand new tires and wheels. I clipped some Freeway debris about two months ago that damaged a wheel. Buying four new low-end wheels from Discount Tire was less than one new Hyundai wheel.
I drove this car every day for the past 10 years and it was exceptional the entire time.

Replacement parts I have and are included in this sale:
Right and left exterior door handles, unpainted (black)
Power window regulator
Power window motor
Timing belt
Rear valve cover gasket (I replaced the front a few months ago)

NHTSA closes investigations into Ford Taurus, Hyundai Santa Fe

Wed, 03 Jul 2013

Ford and Hyundai are out from under the scrutinizing eyes of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration after the government agency said it was closing investigations against both automakers over vehicle safety concerns.
Ford was being investigated for reported damaged speed control cables on Ford Taurus (shown above) and Mercury Sable models, both built between 2000 and 2003. Vehicles with the company's Duratec engines allegedly failed to allow owners to brake as expected. Owners lodged 100 complaints and were involved in five accidents, according to NHTSA records. The American automaker responded to the reports, and on June 21 of this year, said that it would inspect and repair all affected vehicles, regardless of the mileage.
Hyundai was under investigation for a reported loose fastener on the steering shaft of its 2011 Santa Fe (shown in the gallery below). After NHTSA launched its inquiry, the Korean automaker responded with its own investigation that yielded four affected vehicles. Following the inspection of 680 vehicles at its assembly plant, Hyundai said the issue was due to employee error and that no further defects have been found.

Hyundai discontinuing Elantra Coupe in US for 2015

Wed, 13 Aug 2014

Hyundai's entry level two-door, the Elantra Coupe, is getting the axe for model year 2015. That leaves the Kia Forte Koup, Honda Civic and Scion tC to hold up the receding entry-level two-door segment.
The Coupe only arrived at US dealerships in 2012, initially as a 2013 model, and it was recently updated at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, with Hyundai adding a more powerful 2.0-liter engine as standard (it was optional in other Elantra models). Considering its short run, though, we're guessing that even a quick update couldn't cure the slow sales that are likely at the root of the two-door's discontinuation. The Elantra Coupe should remain on sale in the Canadian market, according to Driving.ca.
We've reached out to Hyundai for official confirmation and a cause of death for the Coupe. When we hear back, we'll be sure to update you.

Hyundai previews Brand N performance division

Fri, Nov 6 2015

Hyundai has slowly created a presence for its N performance sub-brand since launching the name on the i20 WRC in late 2013, but so far the company has limited the badge to rally cars and concepts. A recent video suggests the moniker might reach the road soon. While Brand N isn't well known yet, Hyundai takes development of its performance credentials quite seriously. The company's European Technical Center at the Nurburgring is handling an increasing amount of the work, and former BMW M GmbH chief engineer Albert Biermann leads the way. He also provides narration for this clip. Beyond the camouflaged hatchback, some of Hyundai's other high-speed machines also make an appearance here. The i20 WRC plays in the dirt a little, but the big star is the wild RM15 concept. Based on the Veloster, it sports a mid-engine, 296-horsepower 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder driving the rear wheels. The wide-body coupe looks great running around the 'Ring, too. Hopefully it indicates how far Brand N intends to go. Related Video:
