Keep It You Will Love It And You Ill Never Give Up On It.... — Power is superb, but interior is bit cheap compared to Honda but better than Suzuki.. other than that everything is wow in this car.... that is why i am still hanging with it and oh yeah it has Hi-performance Hurricane filter in it..

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

Pros

Cheap to run and insure, has loads of load-in space for carrying stuff

Cons

Wasn't first in the queue when performance and looks were handed out

Cheap Day-to-day Runner — Not the best car I have ever owned, but it gets me from A to B. I have only bought this car due to the fact that petrol prices are high and I need a car that is frugal and doesn't cost much to run. This ticks both of them boxes, so I'm happy! It is currently giving me close to 40 mpg combined, which twinned with low emissions puts it in a low group for tax. It's cheap to insure too! I also use this car to carry amps, speakers, equipment for me and my band, and there is a lot of boot space, and even more if you fold down the seats!! I also carry camping gear, so I am very pleased with it's capacity in that respect. Overall I would recommend this car to anyone who wants a car that is cheap to run and can carry large loads, who doesn't mind losing out on performance and looks. If performance and looks are your thing, then this isn't your cup of tea at all!

'04 Hyundai Accent. Modified — Performance is not a bad as it was when I first got it. A few mild mods have been done. Custom cold air intake, exhaust and a massive sound system. 500 kms to a tank, so its still pritty good on fuel. Fun to drive in the rain, nice side ways action for a front wheel drive.

Its Nothing Special — Typical Hyundai quality, very basic car, at least its a manual, paint is of decent quality, seats get uncomfortable after a while, parts are reasonably priced, hatch has an okay amount of space, its just an a to b car

Ehh, It Was My First Car. Deffinatly Helped Me Make The Decision To Not Get Another Hyundai. — Um, ya. It's a hyundai, before they switched to being primarily USA parts. Acceleration is Horrible, especially when the AC is on. The braking is fine and handling is great. As for build, it does okay. There is a shake that I cant seem to fix. The interior is a little bland, I have sports cloth and that just means you get charcoal coloring and confetti thrown on it. Gas mileage, I get 300miles to the tank...and it costs around 28 dollars to fill it. Maintenance, I was fine until I hit 50,000 miles. Things just seem to go wrong. This car has also been in a couple of accidents. Held up well however the airbags never deployed. Its a fun FIRST car to drive.

Huh? — It gets great gas mileage, but it's not my favorite of my cars. My favorite car is my 1973 Plymouth Duster. Its gets 12mpg on a 14gallon tank. haha. yeah, thats why i drive my accent. My accent is sleek and all i have to do is take out my governor and i think it could be ready to race after a few mods. hahaha.

Nice Ride — Good little car that gets good gas mileage - between 27 and 35 mpg - and has decent handling. Hasn't had to have many repairs over the years and is still in good condition. I drove it for a few months back when it was brand new, handles good in the snow.
