  • Love my new car - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    Ive had my new Sonata Limited, all black with gray leather interior for about a month now, and I love it! It has everything I ever wanted in a car for a reasonable price, yet features compare with Lexus, Mercedes, Acura, etc.

  • Awesome - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    Have the for about a week now, put on about 800 miles. average 29 mix miles per gallon. Handles well and one the best interior I ever saw in a car.

  • Great value - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    We were loyal Honda and Toyota owners for 20+ years. Checked this out and what a nice vehicle. Specs for the $$ is a great value. I spoke with past Hyundai owners before buying this and not one had a bad thing to say about their Sonatas. If a family sedan is what you are looking for, drive this before you make your decision. Handles great for a sedan. Interior controls are logical in places. Ours Limited is Powder White w the wine leather interior. We love it.

  • Very Nice Car - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I bought this car in March and my mother liked so much she went and bought a fully a loaded limited with the Nav. I have heard some people saying they are not getting good gas mileage. Sounds a bit odd as I am averaging between 38 and 40 mpg. But of course, I do not "punch it" and I drive between 65 and 70 mph which is the optimum speed for mileage. As far as the looks, very nice car, love the inside. The SE version I bought is a bit more stiff because of the suspension, their is a difference as I drove my mothers limited and it is noticeably softer so if you dont like the stiff ride. The GLS or limited would be the car to get.

  • Buy it! - 2011 Hyundai Sonata

    We have received so many compliments about our purchase, and we love to drive it! Performance is excellent, especially the fuel efficiency. The design competes with all the luxury cars hands down.

  • Quality! - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I was bowled over by the look of this car. I havent had a "car" since my 1992 Cad Eldorado. Have had 3 mini vans & traded in a Scion XB. Wanted to get a new vehicle, thought about a small suv. The Scion was OK, but not comfortable for my husband. This Sonata is beautiful & has the feel of a much more expensive car. It also has lots of pep. The trunk is spacious. I always have a cart & large golf bag in it. My husbands bag fits in also. Im getting about 28 mpg, as good or better then I got with the Scion, with a lot more comfort & good looks. Cant say enough about how much I love it.

  • Fabulous Car - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I was initially undecided on whether to buy the Sonata or its sister, the Kia Optima. Kia also had an impressive exterior. The interior did not impress me at all. (Dash & console) I believe Hyundai just has better resale value to. I viewed the base auto GLS but had to add a few options, such as power seat, alloy wheels. Along with Bluetooth on the steering wheel. Ive owned close to 20 cars in my life. Including a brand new 89 Sonata. This car is the most luxurious and well appointed vehicle I have owned and for the least money.

  • New Car - 2011 Hyundai Sonata

    Best car in its class, if I were Lexus, Acura or any other dealer on the high end market, I would be worried!

  • Love my 2011 SE - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I just bought my SE 3 wks ago and I LOVE IT!! Only 964 miles so far. Very sexy and I love the sporty feel. Yet it still as the full size feel on the inside. Handling is great with the tight turns and fast pickup. Keep in mind, this is the sport package so the ride is slightly rougher. But in all, its fun to drive and gets lots of attention.Only concern is the traction in the snow. So far Ive had some problems on slippery surfaces. Looking into this. Ive heard I might have to change to a better tire, which I hate to do on a brand new car.

  • Excellent vehicle - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    Just bought a used 2011 SE with 29K miles and so far I really like this car. It has great exterior design, the interior feels well built and the materials do not feel cheap at all. The features are really nice and ride comfort is great for my standards. The only concern I had was about the left pull I read so much about, so when I test drove this vehicle, I paid the most attention to this. Either the issue was fixed previously or it never had it because at 70-75 mph it never pulled to any side.
