I am a college student, and I was able to afford this car on my own! I bought it used with 11K miles on it, and 8 months later my accent has 30K on it! Needless to say, I do a lot of long traveling in it, and its great! So far I haven't had any problems with it, and have only brought it to the garage for its scheduled maintenence. I didn't do a lot of shopping around... my dad has an elantra and has great luck with that, so I decided to go with a Hyundai, and this one was right in my price range! Its a great car!
Not Bad For $8900

Bout this car in august '03. It had 15000 miles on it at that point. Now (Nov '07) it's at 102000, and I have had my first tranny problem. None of my service was done at the dealership. I don't trust dealers so no one touches my car other than my regular mechanic. With regular oil changes (and tranny fluid changes every 30000 or so) it's run well for me. had the plugs and wires changed around 50000 and had a problem with the rear brake hardware somewhere in there. I've actually been really pleased with this car. It's made several trips back home (1200 miles twice a year) and only just now conked out. I can accept a tranny problem at 100000, hope it's not an expensive fix.

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!
Good Deal

It's like this - if you can afford a new Camry or an Altima, go buy it. But if you are a poor graduate student like me, and are thinking about getting a used sedan or a cheap new one like Accent, I'd put my money on the Accent any day of the year. Admittedley, it doesnt have the greatest pick up in the world, and the engine's a little nosy too, but a new 4-door sedan for about $11,000 is worth all these deficiencies. This car is making me so much happier compared to the used Toyota I had earlier. That one was making me take a trip to Midas every other month. This one hasnt given me any problem so far, and comes with a great warranty plan.
a lot of car for the money

Comfortable for a medium built person, remarkably quiet within 60mph, has all basic stuff: AC, CD, power windows and mirrors, interior trim is well done. Took it on a 1600miles ride, performed well, 36mpg, however, becomes unstable and noisy at speeds above 65-70mph. The 1.6l engine manual provides good acceleration, one has no problems at all merging onto highway, around 30- 32mpg in suburban comuting. It does not excel in any regard, but everything is done right, one can not expect more from this type of entry level car. If the reliability improves for the new 2001-2002 model it is definitely a better choice than a 3-4y old Civic or Corolla.
