That kid must have torn it up. A 2 year old Tiburon is a nice car. Or should be.

Let us reason here... You buy Japanese cars for $2-7 dollars more when you initially buy the car. Resale value for Hyundai's (for some reason I feel you purposely spelled it wrong) at most are $1-4 less than Japanese cars of the particular class. Resale value may be less, but you purchased the car for less and you pay less in terms of interest. Do the math. If your neighbor is still selling the Tib that costs nothing, I'll buy it for nothing!

very long links by pat HOST

I deleted two posts that had hugely long links that were skewing the page. If you need to post a link that extends beyond the width of the posting column here, please use the Url button beneath the post box. You click it once, paste your URL in (just as you do in a regular message) and click the Url button again. That will keep it from causing a problem.
 
But the other thing is that the Tiburon is not on topic here, so links to Tibs for sale don't belong here. A Tiburon's resale value isn't going to tell us how the resale value for an Azera will hold up over the long run.
 
Thanks.

for what it`s worth by anthonyp

I got a Hertz Hyundai today, and although I do not know it`s competition or anything about it, I can report that it has surprising comfortable feel and drives quite well...In fact it is very reminiscent of my previous 98 or there abouts Lexus ls400, in fact it might be a little better in the driving department..If the dealership gives good service then this brand may in a few years be more highly regarded....Well worth a look....Tony

Hello,
 
  Does anyone know when the 2006 or 2007 Passat Wagons will be available? I do not see any of them in Massachusetts yet.

I take it that you drove the new Azera - great car!! It competes with Avalon, first and foremost. And to a moderate degree, Maxima, 500 & Lucerne. Passat and Lacrosse (titled), unfortunately, are midsize cars and do not compete with Azera or any other above-mentioned vehicles.

If I recall, the Passat wagon should be out shortly. Exact pricing have not yet been determined but look for an increase from the Passat sedan prices...

I bought the Azera because I was impressed with the experience I had with my 2002 Sonata GLS, which I had for 4 years and put 105K miles on it. The Sonata was very dependable from day 1. The only issues I had with it was a ticking noise from the engine within the first 500 miles, but a pulley change took care of that, a ruptured power steering hose, a defective sensor for the shiftronic transmission and the trunk remote release mechanism came loose. Of course, all of these were covered under warranty and only required maybe an hour of my time to address each one. Speaking of the warranty...WHEW!!!
 
To answer your question directly, I had $30K to spend and I got the Azera because of it's looks, interior room, features, value, name plate dependability proven from previous vehicle and of course...that wonderful warranty!!!
