I have just bought the car but, I can already tell it was a great decision. I am getting almost 40 miles to the gallon and the car is great. It has great acceleration for the small engine and is very fun to drive. Hyundai also sticks true to their warranty, I noticed a little plastic button that was broken on the back hatch and they took car of it in minutes without question.

When I was looking for a new car to replace my very first car I thought about buying another used car but one time I looked though the weekly paper and I saw a new Accent for $6999 advertised I was surprised. I heard the 2000 to present models were 20 times better then the old models I never thought about buying Hyundai due to poor quility of eariler models.But when I test drove it the build quility and ride was soild and quite then the Accent I drove in 1997.I relly liked the two door style better then the four door. The two door has a more attractive front grile and tail lights.Gas milege is great im getting about 30 mpg.

I was in the market to replace my worn out, trusty Metro (258k) and frankly was shocked about how it was nearly impossible to get a base model commuter car for less than $13000.00 I looked at Saturn, Honda, Toyota and by the time I added air, cd player, power windows, door locks I was in the neighborhood of $15000.00+ I was pleasantly surprised when I drove the Hyundai Accent GS. The DOHC is smooth and with the 5 speed tranny is really fun to drive. It rides, handles great and air conditioning is a standard feature. So I ended up with GS with the Option 3 package (power windows, mirrors, door locks). Factor in the warranty and it was a no brainer decision. The total cost was $10400.00

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!!

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.
