Up for sale is my custom 98 tiburon.
CLEAR TITLE IN HAND. - not an R title.

car is plastidipped and was featured as a spotlight car on dipitcrew @ www.dipitcrew.com/crew-spotlight.html
see the featured youtube video here - http://youtu.be/Od4yVCBTcxk
car shows signs of it's age. it's not perfect by any means, it hesitates when cold, but it runs and drives great after it warms to normal temperature.
several new oem and performance parts. too many to list. but i'll try new low profile tires have about 2000 miles on them with a fresh alignment and new tie rod ends. car drives straight as an arrow, and handles great.
car has had bodywork done, including an korean fiberglass hood that i had imported. the car has been plastidipped wich is like a spray wrap. (google plastidip or goto dipyourcar.com)
it has new o2 sensors, maf sensor, air intake sensor,crank and cam sensors, new catalytic converter, new tires, new air filter, alzetta tail lights, custom painted headlights and clear corners and 2.5" full stainless exhaust included.
it's been well taken care of, and should provide several thousand more miles of enjoyment.
I also have a coil over conversion kit that has not been installed yet that i would include for an additional $50 if you want to lower this car.
the car is a 5 speed manual trans and has a new clutch and flywheel with about 8000 miles on them. shifts fine, no problems with trans.
the engine has an intermittent lifter tick that only happens once in a while. It was checked out by the dealer, and I was told by the hyundai technician and cooberated with several online forums that this is normal for the 2.0 DOHC engine of this age. it goes away with fresh oil changes.
I have a complete 2.5 stainless exhaust with header that will be included with the car. it's removed due to emission requirements. new catalytic converter/header was just installed 6 months ago. the muffler/tailpipe end is still on the car for a great performance, looks, and sound. Car has a cd player that plays mp3 cds. I also have the oem tail lights if the alzetta tail lights aren't what you like. i would install the oem for you.
interior is in good shape. it has normal wear and tear for being a 98. air conditioning does not work, i never had it checked for repair, i'm not sure what is wrong with it. please message me for additional pics or to ask any questions.
car does run and drive great. I drive it daily.
however the car is being sold as-is with no warranty implied.
thanks for looking.
the car is also being sold locally and online, so get it while you can!

Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating
Mon, Aug 6 2018Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
IIHS gives 90 models its Top Safety Pick award in one fell swoop
Wed, Feb 24 2021Although the Audi A7 and the Toyota Sienna are positioned on completely different ends of the automotive spectrum, they overlap in one important area: both earned a Top Safety Pick+ award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). They're among the 49 cars that received the distinction for 2021, while 41 additional models scored a Top Safety Pick (without the plus) award from the institute, bringing the number of winners to 90. Earning a coveted Top Safety Pick award from the IIHS is easier said than done. Recipients need to score a good rating in the institute's six crash tests, be available with a front crash prevention system that scores a superior or advanced rating in vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian evaluations, and be offered with (but, crucially, not necessarily fitted standard with) headlights that are either good or acceptable. Vehicles that have good or acceptable headlights across the full range, regardless of trim level, are eligible for the Top Safety Pick+ award. The Hyundai Group (which includes Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis) earned more awards than any other carmaker, with 12 standard Top Safety Pick distinctions and five earning a Pick+. Volvo led the Pick+ chart with its entire lineup of nine vehicles. At the other end of the spectrum, Mitsubishi still hasn't earned a single award, and General Motors only nabbed one of each. Safety is spreading across market segments, according to the IIHS. It pointed out that, in 2020, there were no minivans or pickup trucks on the list of Top Safety Pick recipients. Fast forward to 2021, and the list includes the Honda Odyssey, the Toyota Sienna, and the Ram 1500 crew cab; the first two earned a Pick+. The full list of 2021 award winners is on the IIHS website. Note that, for some models, only units built after a certain date earned an award. This distinction reflects a change (usually in headlights) during the production run. Cars sold in the United States are safer than ever, but automakers still sell vehicles with a zero-star crash test rating in many global markets. Suzuki's 2020 S-Presso flunked a reasonably basic round of tests in 2020. Featured Gallery 2021 Hyundai Palisade View 12 Photos Audi Hyundai Volvo
2014 Hyundai Veloster Turbo R-Spec loses creature comforts, gains sporting equipment [UPDATE]
Thu, 21 Nov 2013Hyundai unveiled the Veloster Turbo R-Spec at the LA Auto Show yesterday, and it's touted as a high-performance model without some of the standard features usually found on the Veloster Turbo, such as proximity-key entry with push-button start, premium gauge cluster, side-repeater mirrors, driver's auto-up window, high-gloss interior trim and heated leather seats.
Like the other three R-Spec models Hyundai has released (Genesis Coupe 2.0T R-Spec, Genesis Coupe 3.8 R-Spec and Genesis 5.0 R-Spec), the Veloster Turbo R-Spec skimps on interior appointments to keep the price down. But Hyundai thinks that people who buy it don't want that equipment anyway, and would rather install aftermarket goodies. The car is priced at $22,110 (including the $810 destination fee), which makes it the least expensive Veloster Turbo model.
The pared-down hatchback's special features include R-Spec-specific sport suspension, retuned steering and a B&M short-shifter for the six-speed manual transmission (the R-Spec isn't offered with an automatic). That's all great, but we can do without the red-accented side skirts and front splitter, which look just as tacky in person as they do in pictures.
