General Looking at getting a ‘06 Tiburon SE

2 Upvotes

Hi guys! My current car got total by a huge tree branch falling on it 🙃 love that. So im looking at tibbys for a cheap and hopefully reliable vehicle. I found an SE 170kms in good condition (one owner) at only $5000 (CAD)! I felt like this was a great deal. I’m a student with a very very tight budget so I want something that will hopefully not cause me any issues. What are your guys’ experiences with these cars?! Are they pretty reliable?!

I love how sporty they are and actually love this car, but want to see how other people felt about them.

TIA!

I have a 2008 Tiburon with about 145k on the engine. Most all of the interior is in pretty good shape. Would anyone be interested in anything?

Front bumper is cooked. You can thank fwd in the snow for that.

I have a pretty sizeable dent in the passenger rear. (You can thank the moron that pulled me out of the snow) The rear bumper has some scratches and is very slightly affected by the dent. It's not too bad, nothing a buff couldn't fix. It should pop right into place

I had an airbag light, always assumed it was the seat belts as I would drive without a fastened belt sometimes and the seat belt light didn't come on.

My seats (front and rear) are free of stains, althouth the plastic on the fronts are pretty scratched up.

Exterior door handles are in good shape

My passenger mirror has a chunk bit out of it (also had to do with the snow believe it or not) but the driver side is fine.

Hood and trunk are good

I have the original rims on the car, they're alittle beat up but still do their job. Also got the spare, it's in great shape. Probably has 15 to 30 miles on it, used it once. Holds air.

I'm eastern mass based. Lemme know if interested.
