A four-speed automatic with a manual shift was optional for GS and GT models, but the SE had exclusive use of a six-speed manual gearbox. Antilock braking was standard on the SE and optional for the GT coupe, which could be equipped with leather upholstery. GS coupes rode on 16-inch wheels, versus 17-inch for other models. All-disc brakes and front side airbags were standard. A new competitor this year was the Scion tC coupe.

Also new for '07, the SE came only with a 6-speed manual transmission, got standard traction/antiskid control, specially tuned sport suspension, and larger brakes.

2008 Hyundai Tiburon: The 2008 Hyundai Tiburon is largely unchanged.
