  The best buy! - 2009 Hyundai Elantra
  By hnicoleg - November 1 - 9:34 am

  I just bought my Hyundai, and I have no complaints! Its performance is amazing compared to my old mazda, and you cant beat the price, 12,000. If anyone is looking into the Hyundai Elantra, you should really consider it!

  Some features make all the difference. - 2009 Hyundai Elantra
  By MIke K - October 31 - 1:17 pm

  My wife and i love this car. The lack of road noise is fantastic and ads to the use of the blue tooth phone on board this fun to drive vehicle. The back seats fold down individually permitting you to haul long items while still seating somebody in the back seat. We drove many vehicles before buying this one, and for the money nothing comes close to this car for value. It not only has an Aux port for ipods or other music players, but it also has a USB port for flash drives and other usb devices. The Cabin on this car is very quiet and comfortable.

  Price is worth it - 2009 Hyundai Elantra
  By swimmurgirl - October 2 - 10:37 pm

  I bought this car for my daughter and she fell in love with it. She loves the blue light interior and the way it handles. The price was awesome. Paid 14K for it. Very impressed. I was worried about engine noise, but after driving it, it wasnt that bad. So no complaints. Had to decide between the Corolla S and Hyundai. Went with Hyundai based on price and features. We get 3 months of XM. Toyota doesnt offer that. A lot more amenities that a kid could like at that age.

  Great Car, Great Price - 2009 Hyundai Elantra
  By Sheryl - September 29 - 12:48 am

  Bought 2 weeks ago, 1,500 miles so far, am totally impressed with the quality and value. Great interior features, 2 trip tach, rides smooth, quick acceleration on fwy. onramps, great control compared to what am used to. I shopped and compared Civics, Corollas and others, for months previous to buying, owned Toyotas previously, but this impressed me more than the new Corolla. No complaints at all! Im only 50", and like how I can see the road, compared to a Civic. Very satisfied with it, plus a great warranty. So far the MPG is about 30 city/36 hwy.

  No Regrets - 2009 Hyundai Elantra
  By Steve - September 22 - 9:36 pm

  Purchased the car with Cash for Clunkers and got it for just under $10K. Considered Honda, Toyota, Mazda and Dodge but happy I settled with Elantra. Taken one long trip and averaged 36 mpg. The ride is quite and comfortable with an interior space that lets you hear music at a reasonable volume with a stereo system much better than what you would expect in this class. The seats are excellent for not being adjustable. I have a combat injury to my back and was quite surprised at the seat support comfort on a long trip. I have owned two Honda Civics and consider this vehicle a much better value especially when comparing the warranty coverage. Hyundai has come a long way, baby!

  What a buy ! - 2009 Hyundai Elantra
  By tim - September 22 - 2:32 pm

  Excellent car. Thoughtfully engineered, first-rate build quality, very nicely equipped. But the warranty and the five years free roadside assistance closed the deal, not to mention the great price.

  Very impressed - 2009 Hyundai Elantra
  By GL w/sport pkg - September 20 - 8:02 pm

  I have only had this vehicle since end of July 2009 and must say that I am quite happy with it so far. It is the GL w/ the sport package(rear spoiler, 16 " alum. wheels, fog lights and skirt package. It really makes the car stand out beside a regular elantra. My only complaint is the rear trunk lid has developed a very annoying rattle, dealer says it may be the spare tire tools and jack. Otherwise, it is a great little car. Great on gas, fit and finish is good, and it handles quite nicely. Anyone considering a Toyota Corola, or Honda Civic should look at this vehicle before they buy...

  Nice Discovery - 2009 Hyundai Elantra
  By Jim - September 12 - 5:37 pm

  Was going to buy a Corolla on the C4C program, but a friend who works at CarMax recommended I give Hyundai a look. With the C4C, the $2K mfg incentive and some negotiating, was out for under 14G, incl tax. Very comfortable, smooth and quiet ride for a compact

  Good Choice - 2009 Hyundai Elantra
  By will - September 6 - 3:50 pm

  Had the car for 3 weeks now and am pleased with it. I never considered buying a Elantra, but friends of ours has 2 and love them. I wanted a car thats reliable, safe, good mpg,comfortable and affordable-the Elantra was it! No other car maker came close with the same options & price plus warranty. Its not sporty or a head turner,but for me thats ok.
