Used 2003 Hyundai Elantra Consumer Reviews
I'm Jealous of my Wife...
I bought this car for my wife and now I borrow the car whenever I get a chance because it is so fun to drive! This car is a breath of fresh air compared to all the other "H" cars out on the road -- and what a deal. The other reviews have said this, but where else can you get Auto Trans, Leather Seats, Moonroof, AM/FM-CD, a peppy little engine and a genuinely COOL exterior styling for $14,300 (bought it through CarsDirect.com). PLUS the 60,000 warranty! These guys are picking up where Honda and Toyota left off, and they can't rest on their laurels -- get one before the world figures it out and the price goes up.
Quick, fun, economical, no problem
After driving this car for a year, I have no complaints and still have some fun everyday, even if it's just pulling some G's on a freeway cloverleaf. Handling is quick and tight, very little understeer, and in good balance with the modest power. This car has good horsepower/weight ratio, so you're never left in the dust. Also, great utility- I can carry an upright bass or set of drums easily. Overall mpg over 30 mpg.
GREAT CAR!
For the price an extremely well made and solid car. Handles well and is more comfortable than what you would expect for a car in this price range.
Whistleing Hyundai
I like my new car but it whistles in a crosswind on the highway. Dealer is still working on it. Other than that I am very happy with my Elantra.
Can't beat the value!
I bought this car without a trade in and got out the door (including taxes, tags, ect...) for 13988.98. It is the 5-speed with a moonroof, and I love it. Corolla was 2k more and had less options, same with the civic. You just can't beat the value. Not to even mention the industry leading warranty.
