Used 2008 Hyundai Elantra Consumer Reviews
Very nice car
We bought this car from Hertz Car Sales for $9995+tax. We researched cars for several months prior to our purchase and were leaning towards the Elantra. When we saw this price, we went and drove the car. Wow! We were pleasantly surprised. It had under 25000 miles. So far we have had no problems. We love the handling, and at 70 mph on the freeway it hugs the road. Loaded with extras. It has a nice sporty feel. Consider this one if you are looking for a compact.
I love my car
I purchased my auto Elantra Se in Feb 08. I love the mileage I'm getting. I average 29-31 miles combined city/hw driving. On the highway going at 65, I averaged 36.9 miles to the gallon. WOW. Its very comfortable. I've made 2 trips to MS so I have almost 13,000 miles on it and still loving it. Its a great car and would recommend it. Yes some can get lemons in any make/model but don't let one lemon spoil your awesome driving experience.
Very Satisfied!
I bought this car to save money on gas and expenses and so far, I'm very impressed. Our family has owned several Hyundais in the past- in fact, I just traded my 2006 Sonata LX for this Elantra SE. I thought there would be a noticeable decline in comfort due to switching from a loaded big sedan to a smaller car, but not in this case. My wife and I both enjoy driving this car and are very pleased with the purchase. I highly recommend putting Hyundai (and the Elantra) on your list!
Uncomfortable
We bought this car based on all of the great reviews. It wasn't bad when we did the test drive. But we live 50 miles away, and by the time we got home our low backs were really hurting. Tried driving it a couple of more times, but it is uncomfortable in about 10 minutes. Then met someone else that commented on how uncomfortable the seats are. Now have it parked and trying to sell it. I hate this car!
Best Choice
This is my first car. Throughout my search I test drove many different cars such as the civic, corolla,etc. but found for the money, the elantra was def the way to go. Now having driven this car for a year I am completely happy with my decision. I am in college and do high mileage. Amazing on fuel, smooth ride, can be a little loud but def not that big of a concern. I am a tall person and this car fits me perfect. Very spacious. I would def recommend this car to anyone looking for a sedan with all the best qualities in one low price compared. Especially with the amazing warranties that Hyundai offers you would be absolutely crazy to go anywhere else.
