I truly enjoy owning this car. I traded in a 2003 C240 Mercedes Benz for this vehicle at the height of the high gas craze. Going from 93 octane to 87 octane was a life saver as well as knowing that I have a 100,000 warranty on this vehicle vs no warranty on the Benz. I thought that I would miss the style of my other car, but I have not. Cloth seats in the summer and winter vs leather that get's hot in the summer and as hard as a rock in the winter, has it's benefits. Also, when I drove up in my Hyundai to visit family, I had them come out and pick up items out of the car. No one immediately noticed the difference. I chose the same color (black) and the cars are approximately the same size and have similar styling. I had to literally tell them and then they started to see the physical differences. Interior wise I do not have leather and laminate wood, but the amenities make up for it. More than enough cup holders, extra spaces for sun glasses and multiple storage places throughout the vehicle.
I have recommended this vehicle to others and will continue to do so. I truly enjoy owning my Hyundai Elantra. Great Value for the Money!!!...read morehide

Bought the 2008 model for its wealth of standard features and excellent warranties. Combine that with a great dealership and I'm pretty satisfied. The performance is not too bad for a compact. It have a very roomy interior and trunk. I enjoyed the XM satelite radio (while I still had it). I just installed the factory keyless entry and I love it. I've driven it in almost every weather element except tornadoes and hurricanes and I've had no problems. I think the car has great brakes, (very important in urban areas). I drive something like 300 to 500 miles a week and only fill up (once I reach a 1/4 or 1/2 tank) once or twice a week on avg. I definitely get my moneys worth....read morehide

Wow! I previously owned a 1995 Hyundai Sonata and the last Elantra I owned was a 1995 GLS. The only thing these two cars have in common is the name! This car performs quite satisfactorily in many categories, in my opinion. If you are considering to purchase a car in this class the Elantra GLS is a good look.
For those who complain about road noise, I installed quieter tires....read morehide

I have had many upscale cars in my life. My Elantra SE is just the right car for me in this day and age. It looks good and performs well. The black paint is excellent and the dash has an expensive look to it. After six months, I still love driving the car. I would buy my wife the same car except she loves her Sonata....read morehide

Have a 2001 also, close to 130,000 very trouble free miles. This is with the 5 speed standard transmission.

I have had twenty seven new GM cars. My Elantra SE has exceeded my expectations. Fuel economy has been consistently good averaging 27 mpg. Car is quiet, feels solid, handles well, recommend the electronic stability control in the SE. Bluetooth option is worth the expense. I have a new Malibu in my garage and I drive my Elantra most of the time. My dealership in Meriden has been great.

Overall a great attractive car for the price. Haven't been able to drive my Elantra too much in the Rain or Snow yet, but drives great so far.

This car is so great that we went and bought a 2008 Sonata, and then my son bought a 2009 Elantra. I feel very comfortable and safe during my commute.
