Good purchase, I like the looks of the new ones, just dont expect too much performance out of it. I saw a review of it on tv and they said its more show than go, but thats not to say its not a nice car.

I dont really know, I just caught the tale end of the program when the guy was basically sumarizing how the Tibby stacked up against other cars in its price range, didn't catch the 0-60 times etc, but i will check on the net.

Well its not from the same show I watched but heres a review

http://www.canadiandriver.com/testdrives/03tiburon.htm

and the time:

I went from 0 to 100 km/h just under 9 seconds, so it's not a rocket. Still, it's about two seconds faster to 100 km/h than the four cylinder Tiburon.
