Pros: Stylish, sporty, reliable economy car at an excellent price.
Cons: Resale value depreciates a lot faster than other car-makers.
Summary: A few years back I started to notice that Hyundai wasn't making the junky econoboxes I grew up with. Back then, buying a Hyundai was paramount to living in a trailer park; everybody knew you must have been struggling to not be able to afford something ... read more

Pros: Still drives like a small car, but is really a family sized vehicle.
Cons: 2 years later, still can't think of one. Warranty is about to run out?
Summary: This website really helped me while shopping, so I thought I'd return the favour. I ended up buying a Hyundai Elantra VE after looking at a Kia (new car that felt like a used car) and a Pontiac Sunfire. I'd driven a Cavalier before so the Sunfire was ... read more

Pros: Longest warranty in the market, no major recalls
Cons: Overcoming old reputation for "junkiness"
Summary: I bought this car as an Xmas present for my wife. We already own a '99 Accent and had no complaints except that it was getting small as the kids grow. We originally bought the Accent because of we could take the dealer to the cleaners due to a ... read more

Pros: Many standard features, especially side air bags.
Cons: Foul smell when you first turn on air conditioner (same as in the Accent)
Summary: I had a black 2 door 2003 Hyundai Accent for about a year, which I loved, but it was just a little too small. I upgraded to a black 4 door 2004 Elantra and love it even more! Everyone knows about the great warranty that Hyundai provides, so that is ... read more

Pros: Value. Nothing else can touch it there.
Sound system
Stowage space
Cons: Thin paint
Could use 10-15 more horses
requires Tiburon sway bar for 'spirited' driving
Summary: I have a confession to make. I drive a Hyundai... two of them, since 2001 - the first car I owned was a 1995 Sonata that I bought with 98,998 miles on it the month I graduated from college. That happened to be the same month that the first Elantra GT ... read more

Pros: style, comfort, quiet
Cons: just recovering from a bad reputation in the 80s
Summary: All I can say is Honda better watch out for companies like Hyundai and Kia who are producing good quality, stylish, and good value cars. I have a 2004 Elantra GT that is great. I wasn't crazy about getting a Hyundai, but after I drove it, and compared

Cons: Poor suspension,poor transmission,unknown vibration, dealer unwilling to address problems.
Summary: Nice little car for the price but I live in a hilly city and the transmission will shift into overdrive at 35/40 no matter how steep the hill making the motor sluggish. Also all 4 wheels and tires have been replaced due to a vibration that is still

Pros: Peppy engine. Nice build quality. Great customer service.
Cons: Automakers still offer Tape Players???
Summary: My 1991 Honda Accord finally got too expensive to repair. I decided to do some research on a new car and the Elantra caught my eye. I went on a test drive with a 5-Speed model and bought it the same day. I love this car! Problem So far, the

Pros: room, speed, nice colors, etc.
Cons: small, and very little else.
Summary: I have this car in black, and it's really nice. It's reliable. Be careful with the gas, it speeds up pretty fast. Recently, one of the front headlights went out, but since it's still on warranty, it's okay. It's small, cozy, and comfy. Even

Pros: Good price for the money and features offered.
Cons: Poor quality of materials and workmanship. Poor customer service.
Summary: I have had my Elantra for seven months. It drives well but I have had a few problems the company refuses to fix. The rubber seal around the drivers door is ripped and torn. The company says that is normal use and refused to fix it. Normal use after

Pros: Looks (GT Hatchback), value, comfort, warranty
Cons: Resell/trade-in value(?)
Summary: This Hyundai is for real. You get a lot for your $14,500 - leather, Kenwood CD/MP3 player, sunroof, etc... (in the GT). The engine is responsive - not a barn burner but with great gas mileage. Very comfortable - large back seat for a car of this class.

Pros: A ton of standard features & a great warranty
Cons: none...i love this car. absolutely no problems.
Summary: Definitely get the 5 speed GT Hatchback. It's amazing what you get standard in this car at this price. The ride is quiet and smooth. Plenty of horsepower and fun to drive. This car is a steal. A must see for sure if your looking at cars under 20k.
