    I find this car to be an excellent value. Looks great, drives great, and feel great. This is my 2nd Sonata, the first for my wife is a bit more luxurious, the 2nd, this model for me.

  • Go for it....forget the name Doit! - 2004 Hyundai Sonata

    Hugs the road and has power on demand. The only thing missing is a retractable steering wheel and emergency hot button on key pad. Otherwise you cant be disappointed in the value, price, performance and sex appeal!

  • Terrific Car - 2004 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    This has been the most maintenance free car that I have ever owned - hands down. I have 110,000 miles on it and it still rides nice and smooth like the day I bought it. Outside of normal maintenance, the only thing that I have had to replace is a front headlight. The cost to operate this car is extremely minimal. I am passing it on the my daughter and I fully expect to get another 110,000 miles out of it.

  • MY NEW SONATA - 2004 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    IN TWO MONTHS AND 3600 MILES I HAVE EXPERIENCED TOTAL COMFORT, AND 33 MILES TO THE GALLON, ON THE HIGHWAY. THE INTERIOR IS SIMPLE AND CONVENIENT TO REACH. THE CLOTH SEATS ARE A PLUS IN THE DESERT I LIVE IN, STANDARD.

  • Extended Warrenty - 2004 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    This car has been a joke. We bought the car and are not high-mileage drivers. We also purchased the EXTENDED Warranty to "Protect" us in the future. As of today it has 51000 miles. Problems, Air went out, 3 batteries, broken engine mounts, fuel sensor (which it seems is not covered by our Extended Warranty). So much for "protection." Add to this our local dealer went belly up and we have to drive forever to get the car fixed and it is time for the Toyota.

  • Bling bling w/out the sting - 2004 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I traded in my 01 Elantra for the 04 Sonata in search of more power,a better ride & a nicer look. I got all for far less than I could have buying new from the competition. My LX feels luxurious, looks expensive & offers good performance. I know there are other vehicles out there that offer more horses, or tighter handling or better amenities, but few have all of these & none can beat the price & industry leading waranty.

  • I love my Sonata - 2004 Hyundai Sonata

    If you really want a great moderate sized car...check out the Hyundai Sonata. I surfed the web for months trying to locate a car I might like to buy. I ended up with the Sonata as my first choice and took the step and purchased it. It truly is a wonderful car. It has the feel of luxury rides like a dream, and the mileage is great. If you are looking for a beautiful a medium sized car with lots of class. Go for it! Take a test drive. It also included a rebate, 10 yr. 100,000 mile & 6 yr. bumper to bumper warranty. Even the paint has a 5 yr warranty. dont delay Sonata is the #2 rated car in America!

  • My 6 months of research paid off! - 2004 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    Best car Ive ever owned, by far. I dont put many miles on it, so I expect to have this car for a long time. Gas mileage = 20-23 MPG -- wish it were better. Drives very nicely and quiet. The only problems have been the side mirror motors sticking (they "release" after I work the switch for a minute), and the power antenna not always going down all the way (one or two soft starts of the car usually fixes this). And, paint chips a bit too easily (from door dings). Otherwise, fit & finish are great. The upgraded cloth seats are plush and comfy. Leather dash/steering has held up beautifully. And the car looks like a hybrid Mercedes C Class and a Jaguar. Ive received many compliments!
