Review

I did the research online and with Consumer Reports. Came down the Azera or the Toyota Avalon. Drove the Avalon, nice ride but handling was way to mushy. The Azera was much tighter, lots of power. Car has every option except bluetooth. Incredible trunk space. Drove it from Colorado to my folks in Nebraska with my Wife, Daughter, SIL and Grandson. Babying it on the interstate I got 31mpg, coming home with that load and 100lbs of apples at 75mph constant I got 27mpg. I would have like more mpg, but the available power is incredible. Haven't driven anything this much fun since my 71 Firebird. The heating/AC is great, dash and instrument layout is great. 10Y/100K warranty, closed the deal.

Favorite Features

Performance is outstanding. Interior comfort, amenities and instrumentation is outstanding. Exterior styling in my mind is great, but that's just MHO. Had it for 6 weeks now and no cons other then MPG, I was hoping for better at 75mph.

Suggested Improvements

Engineer that power plant for better fuel efficiency, and if it had Toyota on the front or back for the price, they couldn't keep the car on the lot.

All I Expected & More

Review

I researched and drove all of the competitors in the full size market. None compared favorably with the features and creature comforts that the Azera offered. It was as much or more comfortable. The interior touches and controls are logical and well designed. The reported issues with the suspension and noise are non-existent in my 2009 LTD. It is exceptionally quiet and the sound system is awesome. The rear sun- shade and memory driver seat make it a joy to drive.

Favorite Features

Memory Driver Seat and the passenger side power seat (not available in most cars unless you pay alot more for it). Th Luminescent and Blue interior lighting makes night driving pleasurable. The Ipod and USB Ports are very handy.

Suggested Improvements

The only item I can suggest would be a built-in Blue Tooth Hands Free system. (Currently a dealer installed option)

Review

After hearing so many of friends rave about their Hyundais I finally decided to investigate when I needed to replace my 2000 Volvo V40. Well, I was equally impressed, with both the reviews and the car. I wasn't planning on buying right away but the value of price & luxury that the Azera offered was too tempting & I have not been disappointed at all after having the Azera for just a week. I have put on over 600 miles on it already. Plush seating, fantastic sound system, more than ample interior space, plenty of power when needed along with stylish looks. This is by far the nicest most "decked" out vehicle I've ever owned & it didn't break my bank either! It blows my old V40 away in every way!

Favorite Features

Awesome sound system with 605 watts, Infinity speakers, XM, IPod, MP3...Fantastic! Bluetooth for the phone, heated seats, LED lights, electric swivel side mirrors, memory seats, adjustable pedals, roomy trunk. What's not to like, the car is great.

Suggested Improvements

Let the driver seat go lower, soften the ride just a bit over things like road joints (maybe less air pressure) & throw in a little more sound insulation. All minor little suggestions for a really great car.

Review

Just a quick update since my post of 06-01-2008. I am still happy with my decision. I have since had the chance to take the car on a thousand mile trip. The car rode very well and my MPG was 26 @ about 80 to 85 miles per hour. So thus far the car has worked as advertised, I am very pleased.

Favorite Features

My favorite features remain the same, love the sound system and I would add the roominess of the cabin and trunk to my list of favorites.

Suggested Improvements

No additional suggested improvements to the car, but I would suggest that Hyundai improve their parts delivery system. I am still waiting for the Bluetooth system I ordered when I purchased the car at the end of May 2008. I also ordered some mud flaps, took two weeks to get those fairly basic parts.

Review

Just got the 2009 Azera Limited two days ago, thus far I am pleased with my decision. Being an old mechanic I had a hard time making the decision to buy a Hyundai. I always told my customers to buy Toyota, Honda, or Nissan, but after doing some research and driving the car I will add Hyundai to my list of cars I recommend. I was considering the Toyota Avalon Limited, but for about $6,000.00 less I got a comparably equipped Hyundai. The only difference I noticed was the Avalon had a quieter ride, but not enough so to justify the price difference.

Favorite Features

The 3.8 L engine, price, and the upgraded Infinity sound system. I was also pleasantly surprised to learn that the Navigation system will play a DVD as well as CD's. Also like the rear power sunshade.

Suggested Improvements

The navigation system is good, but lacks the features I have in my 2004 Acura TL w/navi. The Acura has voice activated navi and bluetooth hookup. The Hyudai is controlled by touch screen, I had to order a bluetooth kit from Hyundai in order to have all the features I wanted. So Hyundai add bluetooth

A shadow in the night

Review

Have you ever been outside on a hot July summer night. The street is warm, and the wind is at a stand-still. Then all of the sudden a car whisp by and you don't even see it. That is what happpens when the new Hyundai azera comes through. People don't know what happened. The design is one of a kind. It has a 3.8 liter, or 3.3 liter. Enough hp's to throw your head back. The leather is smooth. Really if it had a Honda or Toyota tag, the dealership could not get enough models in stock. So I recommend this car. You shoul go drive drive.

Favorite Features

Xenon head lights,

Suggested Improvements

Wider tires....
