I AM A VOLKSWAGEN MECHANIC(27 YEARS), AND I LOVE GERMAN EGINEERING, HOWEVER VW CUSTOMER SERVICE AND QUALITY HAS BEEN LAGGING FOR SOME TIME NOW. HYUNDAI ON THE OTHER HAND DEFIES THE LAWS OF PHISICS. MY CAR IS THE BEST INVESTMENT I HAVE EVER MADE. IT ACTUALLY APRECIATED IN PRICE THIS YEAR. THE CAR IS TO GOOD!! FOR TO LITTLE PRICE. HYUNDAI WAKE UP AND SELL YOUR ACCENT FOR $5000 MORE MARK UP AND START MAKING SOME REAL MONEY. PEOPLE WILL BUY YOUR GOOD QUALITY NOW!!

The car ran great when I bought it in 2003. It had a relatively smooth ride, and could accelerate pretty fast. The problems started in 2006. First the RMPs would jump up pretty high when at a complete stop. I almost hit another car the 1st time it happened. I took it to the dealership, and they said I had voided my warranty by off roading. The most my car had seen of the wild was a gravel driveway. I took the car to a mechanic after that he looked at it and tried to fix the problem. I made it about 15 miles before it started again, but this time, I started hearing a loud metal banging metal noise. I called the mechanic back and they told me to bring it back ASAP, and not to drive it, but ha

Great car for the price. It looks nice and the interior is very comfortable. The design looks nice, and for the price! Perfect for a student with a small budget. Better get this new car for a cheap price, instead of buying a Honda that prolly has a beated up engine.

Why would anyone pay more than 10k for a new car, when the Accent is all you need. Peppy, torquey motor, great handling, sexy exterior style. It's a great car and no worries due to best warranty ever. A very practical logical sensible car. Let others pay double the price to have a honda symbol on a comparable car. I've had many cars, but I am sold on Hyundais and I intend to be a repeat customer.

This was my first ever car! It recently got totaled in an accident (other persons fault). I didn't have on a seat belt and walked away with some minor bruises! This little car is safe reliable and GREAT on gas! I would have rode this car til the wheels fell off if it hadn't been totaled!
