  A fun cheap little car - 2005 Hyundai Accent
  By Nathan - March 18 - 2:33 pm

  I bought my 2005 Accent as a new left over in 06. I bought it a month after I bought an 06 Tiburon as a second car. This has been the best second car you could ask for. Its cheap, reliable, great on gas, has plenty of room for a little hatchback, and is fun to drive with the 5 speed manual. Its a very plain car with no CD player, and no air conditioning which is okay for what I use it for. Most people would probably get a little higher version with these features. It is built very well, and rides smoothly for its low price of $11,000. And of course, it has Hyundais wonderful 10 year 100,000 mile warranty on the engine and transmission

  Reliable and comfortable - 2005 Hyundai Accent
  By Ed Coonce - March 15 - 10:58 pm

  This is my fourth Hyundai and third Accent, and the quality level is very high. I appreciate the smooth quiet ride and good gas mileage. I am looking forward to a Hyundai Hybrid, or alternative fuel vehicle. Im a satisfied customer.

  AccentGT! - 2005 Hyundai Accent
  By toocrazy2yoo - March 13 - 6:10 am

  Fine little car. Came with the preferred power pkg with the power locks, windows, CD, fog lights a/c. Has 5 speed. Engine is smooth, fast within a narrow range of rpm, and gets good mileage (38 on the road, no AC, 70-80 MPH). Im 62" and I have plenty of leg/head room. The GT comes with a sub-frame, stiffer struts, springs, stabilizer bars front and rear, and bigger tires, and handles really well. Remains flat and well-planted on the exit ramps and sweeps hitting the interstate. Stable and smooth at speed. Turns on a dime. Hatchback allows more storage than the trunk of my 92 Elantra (which had 250k on it). Reliable? Only have 2k miles on it, but it should be great with the 100k warranty

  A Fantastic Perky Little Car - 2005 Hyundai Accent
  By Janine - December 8 - 11:50 pm

  My first brand new car, it has everything I requested. Awesome Retro Red color, very easy to drive and very comfortable ride to work and has excellent gas mileage. The passenger door is wide making it easy for my disabled husband to get into. For a small car this surprised me and was a plus.

  A very good car - 2005 Hyundai Accent
  By Vern - August 29 - 7:50 am

  I have only had the car for about 3 months, and I can say it is well worth the money I payed. I am very happy with it.

  Fun to drive - 2005 Hyundai Accent
  By Dereck - August 7 - 12:03 am

  Fun car to drive, love the body style and interior, except the cup holders. Gets decent gas mileage and has plenty of power to get out in traffic and stay with it.

  Best economy car to buy - 2005 Hyundai Accent
  By Donald - July 31 - 1:37 pm

  This is totally a fun car to drive. Very reliable, extremely good on gas. Hyundai has really improved over the last 10 years. Also the price was excellent, with the features it provides.

  By Dereck - July 24 - 12:03 pm

  My only complaints of this car are where the cup holders are and the gas milage is lower than i expected. Other than that car is a blast to drive.
