  Move over Civic and Corolla - 2005 Hyundai Elantra
  By JF - March 8 - 11:46 pm

  I have had this car about a week and love it for a compact. It has more drivers legroom, rides better, has more power, steers better, and just overall is a nicer car than my 99 Civic was. Top it off with a much better warranty than Honda or Toyota offer and for thousands less.

  2005 Elantra - 2005 Hyundai Elantra
  By Rob - March 4 - 4:10 pm

  I compared & test drove many many vehicles including the Kia Spectra before purchasing the Elantra. For a communter car, the overall quality, reliability and pricing made this a no brainer. The only complaint I have is the gas mileage during local/city driving. I get great mileage on the highway but the city/local mileage seems to suffer severely. But I guess I should not complain too much because the gas mileage is way better than my Chevy Suburban. I did not get the $300 CD Player option, instead purchased an Alpine/Kenwood system & installed it myself for the same price. Overall I think this is an excellent value when everything is factored in.

  Practical but not pricey - 2005 Hyundai Elantra
  By jayupark - February 22 - 9:40 am

  We managed to get the car near invoice price. Ive had it for 1 year now, and it has not let me down. It has enough power to not be considered slow. The fuel economy, while not stellar, is acceptable. In my humble opinion, there is no car in this price range that even comes close.

  Cant afford the GT, Buy GLS Hatchback - 2005 Hyundai Elantra
  By Richard - December 21 - 7:46 am

  For the money, the best car youll find GLS Hatch, hss same underpinnings and stearing as GT. Save the $2 Gs if you dont have it. Get the CD player with 6 speakers & cruise. Get a respecable 28 mpg overall.

  Elantra - 2005 Hyundai Elantra
  By eex_heywood - December 17 - 10:03 am

  So far, so good! Love the car...looks ALOT better than the 97 Elantra we traded in for it! Little funny acting in 3rd gear around town..kinda quirky or something, but straightens out at 2000 rpms. Only 1200 miles on it now, but so far this cars very good! Id recommend one to anyone looking for a smaller family vehicle, without any worries.

  Great Car - 2005 Hyundai Elantra
  By Dean Shumaker - November 3 - 8:53 pm

  We are very please with the GT from Hyundai. We think for the money, it is the best buy in the market. We are planning on keeping it forever and with the 5 yr. bumper to bumper,roadside waranty, 20 yr. 200000 it will be predictable on repairs.

  I purchased my car over a year ago, and havent had one problem yet. I love my car, this is the third hyundia that my family has owned. Its a great car and my family highly recommends it. Its the first car I personally have bought brand new. Its great for driving long distances.
