Well, I got a new car. Toyota resale value is too high, and they all have a crap load of miles on them around here....SO on to Hyundai. Its a sweet little car, good power, great gas milage, looks good,fully loaded, dirt cheap and low miles....winning combo for me thanks!

Not a bad car if it holds together but I think you would've been better off going with an older Toyota for the same price. It looks nice though... it's in great shape.
I looked at a few Volvo S40's, but no manual = no go.
and i have no doubts it will hold together. my mom has a 2000 elantra and it still runs like new, and she's had 0 problems with it with 100k miles on it now.
and if there is a problem? warranty baby!

Yep, i had a black GT hatch for about a year, but i sold it cause i couldnt afford it and rent at the same time. im in a bit better shape now, so i got another one.
I paid $9500 for this one out the door, taxed, titled and ready to roll. And with 23k miles, you cant really complain.

The sonata is a really nice car, i hate to say it, but id take an 07 V6 sonata over a 07 V6 Camry any day.
The new accent hatch se is nice, but its tiny, and a bit underpowered.
I like the elantra a lot. its got good power, more standard features than youd expect, and it gets great gas milage. The body styling isnt the greatest in the world, expecially the new ones, but its not terrible.

solara's were definatly on my list of cars, but realistically i need 4 doors and a trunk, or at least a decent sized hatch. Other wise i probably would have sprung for the Tiburon, or a v6 solara.
