Accent GT - 2005 Hyundai Accent
By Donald - April 2 - 9:42 amI am thoroughly enjoying my Accent GT...fun to drive, peppy, good gas mileage. Down sides - small, stuffy interior, good for single younger people. Seats are a bit stiff. Definitely not a long distance drive car. Rear with spoiler sits very high and takes away from visibilty behind the car quite a bit.

fun car, great milage - 2005 Hyundai Accent
By tim testor - March 3 - 9:44 pm2005 GT Hatch. I do a lot of highway business driving and have seen 38.5 mpg crusing @ 75mph. Fairly quiet relaxed cruising for a econobox in this price range but a little "buzzy" in the lower gears (automatic).

My little car - 2005 Hyundai Accent
By Steve Williamson - February 19 - 10:28 amI have no regrets in the purchase of my Accent. It is not a luxury car but it is economical, reliable and I enjoy driving it. I get on average 38 MPG but I have had 44 MPG. For a small car it is amazing how much you can pack inside. With it being a hatchback, the trunk storage is very spacious for the size car. The main thing I dislike about the cars interior is the fact it has no interior armrest. This model didnt come with a clock on the dash either. In order to purchase the one that fits into the dash would have cost me around $200 which I thought was ridiculous. All in all, I love my little car. It provides me cheap reliable transportation. I enjoy the drive.

Real Bargain - 2005 Hyundai Accent
By Rich - January 26 - 7:34 amBought in May of 2004 and it has been a real nice car. Even on long trips, loaded down, taking daughter to college in midwest (2,600 miles roundtrip), it performed admirably, even in the mountains.

The right pick! - 2005 Hyundai Accent
By bob ODwyer - December 17 - 9:39 amOnly have 300 miles on this car and so far it is great. Very happy with its performance. Just did my first fill-up and got 29.6 mpg. That sure got a big smile on my face.

125,000+ miles and still going strong! - 2005 Hyundai Accent
By Rick - February 3 - 1:29 amI bought this car new as a commuter car in 2005. Paid $7750 and I was hoping it would last until I retired. It did -- plus another 10 years, and still going strong. It is a "basic" car, a cassette deck, a small back seat, small wheels and a few other disadvantages, but hey, a "simple" car is what I wanted! In 11 years it has had exactly TWO non-maintenance service calls. One was the previous mechanics fault and the other was a "check engine light" which resulted in a minor adjustment. Thats ALL! I listed the MPG as "35" but, on the highway, the mileage has flirted with 40! It has plenty of pep on the road, too. I got through college on VW Bugs and this is the modern equivalent. Not fancy, but this car has been extremely reliable and I almost consider it a member of the family!!
