My new car! 04 Elantra GT *56k...LOL*

[Tommy]

Well, the camry is dead...but i say fuck it!!! i hated that car SOOO much!

These pictures blow, but what can ya do? it was dark by the time i got to take them, ill put up better ones tomorrowish.

My 2004 Hyundai Elantra GT 5 door
















Its got Leather, 6 speaker MP3 playing stereo, power everything, moon roof, "sport tuned suspension" (doent mean much, think Corolla S) 15" alloys, ABS, Traction Control, and Front and Side airbags.


Its a GREAT car, i love it SOO much. Its quick too, even though its only a 2.0L 4cly. Its got 140hp/133tq....it will spin the tires from a dead stop, without reving the engine...WITH my auto transmission!


Anyways...thats it...im no longer a toyota guy, and i wont be for who knows how long. Ill be a hyundai for a long time. Cars only got 17k miles, so its gonna be around for a while.

Hey, drop that Elantra! For all I care, you got a really good warranty on that baby, and only 17k miles. YOu still got 9 years I believe on the warranty.

its got a shit load of a warranty, its got more features than ANY toyota under 15k, its faster than any of its competitors, and my moms 2000 elantra has 80k miles and has been in the shop twice other than for scheduled maintance....one was a recall, the other was for an accident.

Congrats on your new purchase. It's shiny, it looks beautiful, and I'm glad you enjoy it. With Hyundai's vast improvement in reliability, quality and value, I really think you'll get a lot of enjoyment out of this investment. I just love Hyundais since I have had an obsession with one. I drove a 93' Excel 3-door and I loved it. It drove like it had more than 81 horsepower, it looked adorable, and it was the car I learned to drive a stick-shift in. We've given it to a co-worker of mom's who wants to use it as a daily driver. She just loves the Hyundai, almost as much as I do, and it's replacing her Tercel 3-door which she says is about ready to give up the ghost.

But it's your car I should be talking about, not mine. Again congrats

Congrats! traitor...LOL, j/k

[terrastrife]

the interior looks a bit too cheap for me i wouldve rathered a older corolla

but thats just me, dunno about your engiens but the engies in australia for hyundai usually die at teh 100k km mark, or very close to it, the mechanic near our place has spare hyundai engines in stock becuase so many excel/accent engines die at that time

[Ruffrydasean]

meh.gimme a tibby... the special edition one

[Tommy]

well, honestly i dont care what you guys think...

The interior is actually really nice. Its perforated leather on everything, and the plastic peices are much sturdier than the other 2-3 different cars i looked at.

I looked at/test drove Sentras, Civics and a corolla. All of them are too damn expensive for what you get, and dont come with crap worth of a warranty. The new corollas are ugly as sin, and the older ones have too many miles on them. The civics i drove were OK, but thats about it...nothing special about them. The Sentra i drove was NO better than my 91 Camry, it felt exactly the same. The Sentra also had the crappiest interior ive ever been in, cheap fabric, cheap flimsy plastic.

Anyways...im gone, i might be around a bit, but since i have no faith in toyotas anymore, it wont be a lot. have fun guys.

I highly doubt thats true. On a side note, I can't take it when people buy cars just because they're made by a certain company, rather than concentrating on the car itself. For example, if Toyota made a piece of shit, they'd still buy it, and if Hyundai made a great car the reaction would be "ewwwww its a hyundai:.

Meh, anyway, good choice.

[nodrogkam]

be happy!

maybe we'll see you back later on.

[Ruffrydasean]

I said nothing negative ^^;.. hell it's a GT version.. I like teh taillights.. but i want a tibby

[dna59]

As long as you like it, that's ok with me.
