  • Best Bang for the Buck! - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I just purchased this vehicle to replace my 10 year old Chrysler 300M. I thought I would have to give up some of the creature features when I purchased a new one.....NOT. The new Hyundai Sonata was just what I needed. Great Looks, Super Fuel Economy (without having to lug around a battery pack), Quality, Quiet Ride, Responsive handling and a Warranty Second to None! If you have not looked at the Hyundai line up of vehicles lately, you need to take a trip to your local dealer. Take a test drive and then make up your own mind about their products. They are on top of their game with a solid product offering for the American driver.

  • What a lovely car!!. Great MPG - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I have never considered buying a Hyundai before. However, 2011 Sonata really changed my attitude toward this car company. Everything is perfect for a midise family sedan. Especially, mps is very impressive. I could get almost 30 MPG during ordinary drive(50/50). Very satisfying

  • 11 Sonata Limited - Nice Ride - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I bought the limited in Harbor Gray with the wind colored leather interior which is gorgeous.Gas mileage so far is great after 3 months and 3200 miles. The leather interior had some weak spots (burrs) in both front and rear seat which dealership replaced. Biggest issue has been annoying (rattle) popping sound in the dash. Has been in the shop twice to have this corrected. It is quiet for several days and then the rattle returns. The dealership has been awesome and I got a good deal by shopping different local dealerships. This car is a real head turner. I have people ask me all the time what kind of car it is.

  • Incredible Car - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I purchased this car almost two months ago and drive approx 500 miles a week between work and home. This car has two personalities, first it is an economy car that gets approx 35 MPG highway and 25 MPG city when you behave with it. On the other hand this is almost sports car like on the other side. I have the SE edition and noticed very quickly that this car does not have a speed governor on it and is capable of speeds in excess of 130 MPH! Excellent sound system. More room then the 2002 Taurus that I replaced. I can hardly go anywhere without people asking about the car and admiring it! I can hardly count how many times People have asked me if it is a LEXUS! FUN FUN FUN!

    Purchased my 2011 Sonata Limited a week ago and 600 miles later, so my immediate impressions are positive. A lot more bang for your buck than a comparable Accord EX-L which I owned (2009 model)

  • First Impressions - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    Ive had the car for just a few weeks; less than 1,000 miles so far. Car has a very solid feel; handles better than my 07 Jetta Wolfsburg; good power. Am waiting for fuel economy to improve as I got just 20 mpg on first tank & 29 mpg on 2nd tank (mostly hwy driving).

    Ok ,You will all think i am crazy but I traded my 2005 E55AMG IN FOR A 2011 Hyundai. My Merc had 73k and got 13mpg around town. I bought the SE version which has the sporty feel after and after a lot of neg i got the white SE with tinted windows for 21k even. I have had it for the weekend and put 300m on the clock. Comfort good,fuel economy great,looks perfect ,just not sure if i am going to be able to deal with the wimpy engine,so far so good! Would recommend this if you were looking to buy a mid size car. oh yes ,traded my E because i was tired of the $ huge bills every time something went wrong, Total rating 8/10 for me. $21000 for this car is great value.

  • Great car for the money. I love it! - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    Got the Sonata Limited 2 weeks ago. Black paint with black leather + paint sealant + door edge guards + carpets + cargo net + ipod cable. Turns heads, great mileage. On my first day to office driving it, everyone came out to check it out. Visually, it easily outshines my bosss Mercedes CLS when parked right next to it! My sunroof had a dent and the interior map lights were stuck. My dealership fixed it in 2 weeks. But my dealer was lousy and failed to return calls. Not a great buying experience. Check the car in broad daylight (especially sunroof, lights and leather) before you get one.

  • Bye Honda! Hello Hyundai! - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I bought a 2009 Honda Accord Coupe V6 only four months prior and loved the new Sonata so much that I traded the Honda for it! The interior is awesome and I prefer it much more than the Accord which was very boring. Since I just got my car yesterday, I cant say too much on reliability. I already notice the great mileage. I bought the Navigation system and am still trying to understand it better. I also cannot get the Homelink to work with my garage, but I couldnt get it to work on my Accord either so its either me or my garage.
