    The car had body damage to the front and rear that was not described in the ad. The check-engine light was on and the engine did not idle smoothly. There was damage to the back right dog-leg that was not described. The interior smelled bad.

    The Car Is Practical And Comfortable. — I like that the car is easy to take care of and maintain. It seems like I always have to wash it, but when it's clean, it feels good to take it for a ride. I'm glad I have my car, but I wish I had more time to take it on the open road with some friends up the coast.

    Pros: The car is all about commuting and reliability.

    Cons: It's a little tight at times when I have more than 3 friends in the car.

    Amazing Car For A Nice Price — I felt the acceleration was on par with the type of car, it's not the fastest on the road, but it's there when you need it. The handling was great, I've never lost control, even in snowy or rainy conditions. All electronics seemed to work well and I haven't noticed a single issue so far. Braking is great as well. I feel 100% safe while driving this car. It's comfortable, viability is pretty good, and does it's job. All in all, a great experience, I am very satisfied with the vehicle and will continue to stay with Hyundai.

    Primary Use: Commuting to work

    Pros: Reliable
    Excellent Fuel Economy
    Comfortable
    A lot of space for compact
    Drive nice; lots of control

    Cons: None that I can think of

    Economical Car With A Great Warranty — I bought it because it was economical and because of the great warranty. I haven't made a mistake - low mileage, Hyundai roadside assistance, peace of mind. It's quite zippy for a four cylinder but still gets great mpg.It's quite attractive, and the hatchback design offers a lot of storage space for a small car.

    Primary Use: Family transportation

    Pros: Not as nice as my Elantra, but economy was the prime incentive.

    Cons: Two things I wish I'd negotiated better - no tint, and I just found out no spare tire. Egads!

    Nice — Very handy and good-looking car. I have 1400 cc. using CVVT engine. Performance, fuel economy, quietness very successful. The most successful in the Class B cargo volume. Modern and ergonomic cockpit. The sound system was adequate. ESP and VSA as standard. Mediterranean to the requirements of a successful and quiet air conditioning. 1400 cc. engine turbo prop could have been.

    Primary Use: Family transportation

    Pros: Performance, fuel economy, quietness very successful.

    Cons: Excessive soft and numb steering, rear vision restricted

    Pros: Great gas mileage and  It's got pep for a 4-cylinder automatic transmission!
