  • GLS after 6 months - 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    After 6k running ok. Nice exterior - gets lots of looks and washes up nicely, especially bumpers. Initial acceleration is a little hesitant. Seats are somewhat hard and flat. Front interior is small for 6 ft. tall people. Back trunk has lots of room and easy access.

    What looks like a full size SUV with interior room to match for a very low price. Well thought out features. With the extended warranty, reliability is a non-issue.

  • I LOVE MY SANTA FE - 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    I purchased my Santa Fe in 2003, I now have 145,000 miles on it. I replaced the tires at 95,000 and the timing belt at 125,000. My wonderful little SUV sees the dealership only at scheduled maint. as I have not had any problems with it at all. And as my daughter says ... I will drive it until the doors fall off. If I had to purchase another car it would be another Santa Fe!! Very roomy and comfortable on long trips.

  • Good Vehicle for the Money - 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    I never thought I would ever buy a Hyundai. I had never owned anything but a Ford (and one inherited Chevy). But, I couldnt pass up the price and warranty on this vehicle. Overall, we are extremely pleased with this vehicle. The ride is remarkable for an SUV. The interior is absolutely beautiful compared to other SUVs in this size range. Weve only had one minor problem after 11,000 miles (an oxygen sensor). I recommend it to anyone. (My good friend has always owned Toyotas and Hondas. However, he liked our Santa Fe so much, he purchased one.) I do recommend the 3.5 liter engine, though. The 2.7 liter is a little weak.

  • A great Korean vehicle - 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe

    A bit bigger than the small SUVs, more room and a lot of car for the money. Enjoyable to drive.

  • HYUNDAI SANTA FE-GLS 2.7 AWD - 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    Really like the comfort, price and standard features. Drove both the 2.7 & 3.5 models at the dealer, found out that the 2.7 is just a TAD slower on pickup than the 3.5..the 3.5 would have cost me more, so I bought the 2.7. Am satisfied with the SUV on the whole.

    Can not beat the price for what you get. The Hyundia Santa Fe doesnt have any cheapter parts than other vehicles priced much higher. They are all using more plastic then metal now days. The Warranty is the best there is with 5 years/60,000 miles bumper to bumper and there 10 year/100,000 mile powertrain warranty.

  • Never thought Id own an SUV - 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    If you dont need 4WD or a huge engine, youre going to love this model. The 4 cyl. with a 5 spd. is plenty, and the ride is really nice. Makes you feel like youre in a 30K machine. I paid (and I think you can too) 16K even including freight, for a package 2 with floor mats and cargo tray. It may not be the best deal, but its damn good. If youre afraid of the Hyundai name, just try one for the fun of it. Youll be afraid no longer, but you might fall in love..
