  Keep Improving - 2006 Hyundai Elantra
  By Keep Improving - September 20 - 12:30 pm

  Car is well equipped for money compared to other car companies but the fabric on seats has poor durability and the noise from road is loud in hatchback model unless you are on very good pavement. Traction on snow wasnt as good as equally equipped front drive cars from other car companies Ive driven.

  So far, so good - 2006 Hyundai Elantra
  By krikel - September 18 - 10:20 pm

  Have to say its a good car for the money. Others complained about tires, but mine came with Michelins which were replaced just recently (I have 45K on the car). Brake pads replaced 1x so far, & just now need new battery. Only complaint is driver side wiper fails (loosens) when icy snow builds up (living in MA, this is gonna happen). Dealership told me Hyundai designed wiper to fail rather than ice buildup making wiper motor burn out. If this is true, why didnt they make it so the passenger side wiper fails when it ices up rather than drivers side? Also had weird problem with brake lights staying on, but was just a stuck switch. Dealership fixed at no cost as it was covered under warranty

  Terrible Trade in Value - 2006 Hyundai Elantra
  By Forget Hyundai - September 12 - 9:51 am

  I tried out this vehicle on newly paved roads for the test drive. This in hindsight did not prepare me for later driving in other road conditions. The car was reasonably quiet on good pavement but if you go on older coarser pavement the road noise in the hatchback was bad.

  better than a corolla - 2006 Hyundai Elantra
  By better than corolla - March 27 - 3:49 pm

  I agree its not the best looking car but its worth all the money I paid for it. I have driven this car to Las Vegas many times, so yes its comfortable and I make it in less than a tank of gas. Everything on the car still works perfect. My car has 35,000 miles on it and Ive had it for 3 yrs I just had to change the tires. Ive had no problems with it. It runs and looks new. I also have a 2002 elantra that runs perfect I also bought that car new and Im now handing it down to my sister cause her corolla already broke down 5 times and she just got it 2 yrs ago.

  Hyundai--No Way #2! - 2006 Hyundai Elantra
  By Hyundai--No Way #2! - March 2 - 3:29 pm

  Had to replace rear brakes at 23,000 miles. Had to replace a all four tires at 23,000. Had to replace the battery at 25,000...all at own cost. The 2 shocks and 2 struts had to be replaced twice at 29,000 because the factory parts were also defective! (fortunately the shocks and struts were under warranty). If you are going to buy a cheap car to save money like I did, try a different manufacturer.

  Great Car for the money - 2006 Hyundai Elantra
  By AVIBobcat08 - February 27 - 11:47 am

  My little 2006 Elantra is a great car for the money. It has great acceleration in fact some of friends get fooled and think it has a V6 when it is only a 2.0 L engine. I love this car it gets 37 mpg on the freeway and 26 city not bad for this car. My only complaint was the tires they only lasted 33,000 miles but for the price of the car I cant complain it out lasted my cousins more expensive corolla which left her sit a few times so all and all its a great car

  Great value, great fun - 2006 Hyundai Elantra
  By Herb & Amy - February 11 - 7:34 pm

  This car handles well and at the same time rides very comfortably on the road. Sporty feel without the roughness of a true sports car. Nice combination.

  Hyundai NO way! - 2006 Hyundai Elantra
  By Hyundia NO way!! - December 8 - 9:25 pm

  Such poor quality, It rides like a buck board and so much road noise its deafening. The radio has a hissing that is growing with age. The cheap battery didnt even last two years. Cheap tires only lasted 26,000 mi. It has never seen 37 mpg not even on a flat road at 60 mph with no A/C. The 85 dollar drivers door gasket has disintegrated twice. I dont even drive it on a daily basis and the sea tbelt does not readily retract all the way. The seat springs are already starting to go. In the smallest amount of snow and Ice it gets stuck. The body is of such cheap metal It collapsed when I accidentally closed the hatch on the XM antenna. In dry so cal climate the steel wheels are already rusting

  Hyundai Elantra a bargain. - 2006 Hyundai Elantra
  By Herb Trisler - December 1 - 8:34 pm

  This car has been full of surprises. 33mpg hwy, 26-27mpg town. Cruises at 100mph easily on the highway. (Yes, 100mph. Easily.) The ride on the highway is much smoother than one would expect, but when pushed at a brisk rate the car still handles very well, never leaving you feeling out of control. Good brakes. Also, no rattles. No squeaks. Very good quality of build.

  Great little car - 2006 Hyundai Elantra
  By Norm - November 4 - 10:35 am

  Ive got almost 50,000 miles on this car. Had to do nothing so far. I average 32 mpg overall. My only complaint is the AM radio reception - it is not good. FM and CD are great. Mine is all leather, standard transmission.
