2012 Hyundai Sonata GLS PZEV 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6A)
The 2012 Sonata is amazing!
I have had 3 Toyota Camrys in the past and intended to buy another.
However, I decided to compare vehicles, so I test drove the Camry and the Honda Accord as well.
The Sonata was definitely the best pick!
I love the styling (inside & out), the ride is quiet and comfortable (and it's just plain fun to drive), interior room is incredible, the warranty is great … and the gas mileage is awesome (averaging 34.9 MPG).
I also like the Bluetooth and the new Blue Link feature.
It's not only a great safety feature, but it gives you alot of other perks.
Highly recommend this vehicle!!
So Far GREAT car!!!!!!!

2012 Hyundai Sonata GLS PZEV 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6A)
Have had car for 5 days, so far I can't complain. The car is GREAT. Fun to drive for a larger car. Traded in a Mazda Miata so I know FUN in a car. Gas mileage is right were Hyundai claims, in fact on the freeway I am averaging 42 MPG on cruise control at 67mph!!! Comfortable, smooth ride. My kids amazed at all the Gee Wiz gadgets. They think I am actually conversing with the CPU when I … use the hyundai bluelink. LOL. LOTS of Gadgets, great gas mileage, cool looking car, all for 21K!! Like I said, can't complain so far.
Ooops ...

2012 Hyundai Sonata GLS PZEV 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6A)
This model of Sonata is miserable failure. I do not know from where to start. Before I purchased it, I drove it three times just to make sure it does not have that pull to the left issue. Unfortunately, after 10k miles I have front tires uneven wear. Dealer states that nothing is wrong with tires although even 1st grader would see difference between even and uneven tire wear. Contacted … Hyundai and they refused any responsibility. Rest assured - they will make sure you don't get solution to tire (?) problem. I did not notice it before but steering wheel is not placed centered to the driver's seat. It is at about 1 inch offset to the left. Radiator leaked at 10k miles. Fixed under warranty.
Great Car

2012 Hyundai Sonata GLS PZEV 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6A)
Just bought this car about a month ago and it's awesome. My wife bought a Tucson a few years ago that we were very impressed. So Hyundai was the first choice when it was time to get rid of my gas-guzzling pick up truck. The inside and outside of the sonata looks very sporty and new-age. It is a perfect car for someone who needs more space for the family but also wants to keep the sporty … look. Sound system is nice and blue tooth is a great feature. For the price you can't beat it. The only complaint I would say is the gas mileage is not as good as I had hoped. I am getting around 26 mpg mixed city and highway. Hopefully once the engine breaks in it will be a little closer to 30mpg. Great car.
