Best Car Ever!
2001 Elantra has been the best and easiest car to drive. Seemingly there has been a lot of headlight etc. replacement. Love the car! People comment all the time on how cute the car is and I do take care of it very well.

Still going strong
My Elantra has over 307K miles, and I plan to keep it for as long as I can. It has manual transmission, which is what I prefer, and what keeps me from considering a new car, since most of them are automatic. I have had minimum expense over 18 years to keep it on the road: Brakes replaced once, 1 Alternator, 1 clutch, 2 radiators. I do follow the manufacturer's schedule for timing belt replacement, and schedule regular oil changes. Yes, there are a few parking lot dings and one dented fender, but that's just cosmetic. I hope to have this car for at least several more years.

Reliable Car
Great car. It has served me almost 19 years now and still going strong. A good dependable and reliable car that keeps going for miles with no serious maintainance issues as long as you don’t drive it like a sports car.

2001 Elantra w/260K still rocking on......
This vehicle has better power in manual transmission version than the auto trans version. Stick fun but pain in traffic. Not long on looks or smooth ride but reliable and very roomy inside. We keep fixing ours as my wife loves it's size and features......

Pros
Easy on gas, fits in tight spots, good turn radius, roomy well laid out interior for size, huge trunk with fold down seats, engine very reliable if timing belts changed on schedule.

my elantra
I absolutely love this vehicle. I've have it for almost 19 years and put over 300,000 miles. This car still has the original engine and transmission, and every day the car starts and runs, makes my day a little brighter. Oh, I know there are a few things that don't work any more but to me they're just minor annoyances.

After seeing how good my Hyundai is five family members bought Hyundais too!
My car is reliable and makes the trips to work and back enjoyable. The Elantra has saved me a lot of money by not having to purchase a new car. My Elantra is 17 years old and between Ken Graff Hyundai and Chevron gas he runs like he did when he as new.

Excellent Car
My 2001 Elantra Hatchback has been the very best car I've ever had. Bought it at McDonald and all service there. No big problems. Just normal service and replacement. I've loved this car. So easy to drive and still looks great! I've had many compliments on the styling.

Great Investment
I have had my Elantra for 15 years now and I have no complaints. Now I haven't put all that many miles on it, but it has been a very reliable car. With regular routine maintenance and normal wear and tear repairs, the car is still going strong. It had been economical to run, maintain, and insure. It may be low tech in today's world, but it is roomy, comfortable, and dependable. It may very well last another 15 years.
