This is the first Hyundai I've owned and I can say I may very well own another in the future. This S.Korean company has made many improvements since the infamous Excel, but this little coupe has good pickup and good handling in the rain. (unlike a Mustang) Turns are a different story, esp. at a roundabout but it is very good on gas and when pushed the right way has good acceleration on the highways. The 4 cyl engine lacks some horsepower but it is a small car so don't expect the performance of a Miata.

The Accent really delivers a high quality ride and a very nice interior package for a very attractive price. The 1.6 liter engine runs great and the tranny shifts well, some downshifting is noted on low speed turns though. The hatchback design is fantastic and the room in the car is really surprising for such a small car. The Accent comfortably holds 4 adults with room for their luggage.

Lots of extra features I did nor expect. Get used to the road noise. Great warranty and they live up to it.

Good for the money

Solid car for the money. I drove the new corolla and civic, this car feels just as tight. One minor problem with a shift linkage that was fixed with no problems at the dealership. Couldn't pass up the good price, great mileage.
