  My second - 2005 Hyundai Elantra
  By true - June 9 - 9:50 pm

  This is my second Elantra. My first was a 2001. I didnt intend to buy a car when I went on the lot, but the value and improvements in the interior got me. I did have some trouble with the gas mileage at first, but switched from ethanol to regular unleaded and my mpg has increased to approx. 28 in town, and 34 on highway. I have had quite a few headlights go out, which was also a problem with my 2001. Solution seems to be to replace both at the same time. Minor work has been done..mostly cosmetic rather than repairs.

  A Great Little Car! - 2005 Hyundai Elantra
  By suzie - June 9 - 2:31 am

  We purchased this car new a little over 2 years ago and havent regretted the purchase yet! My husband drives a lot of miles for his job, and the gas mileage/price is what attracted us to this car. It handles nicely and has the right amount of get-up-and-go for highway and interstate driving. We were also attracted to the safety features. We havent had to do any service on the car other than routine maintenance, but we have had to have the little clips that hold the floor mats down replaced a few times on the drivers side - they seem to break off easily. This car is surprisingly roomy and comfortable.

  2 years and still satisfied! - 2005 Hyundai Elantra
  By Ken - April 18 - 9:31 pm

  I was hesitant to buy this car at the start, but quickly fell in love with it. Price, economy and warranty are just plain unbeatable. I was trying to purchase a 3-5 year old Camry or Honda and got into a brand new Elantra for the same money.

  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.
