Driving fun and fuel economy aren't always oxymorons

5th: 2008 Hyundai Tiburon – $16,875 base price

When it first debuted earlier this decade, the Hyundai Tiburon was a nice piece: sporty, fun to drive, good power and sharp looking. It is still many of those things, but the competition has caught up and passed it. Still, for less than $17,000, you can have a good-looking coupe and good fuel economy, not a bad combination.
