wonderful car! great value
Bought this model the first year it was in production. I had always had sport or luxury cars and friends thought I was crazy to get a Hyundai. But I knew a good value when I saw it, and it has been a great car. Smooth ride, plenty of power (even though it's the smaller engine), comfortable interior. The transmission is excellent - I live in a hilly area and the gear ratios when I use select shift are perfect, allowing me to control the car with gearing instead of riding brakes - 45,000 miles on the car, still 30% brake life remaining. That's amazing for a vehicle that has to go down a 3 mile steep grade everyday. Haven't had a single mechanical problem in 9 years.
