Too noisy for a small car
I bought it a month ago. It does the job of taking me around but for an engine this size it is too noisy.

Avoid Manual Transmission
I wonder how many people know that kids with ADHD have car accidents with greater frequency than their non-ADHD couterparts? Research has demonstrated this to be fact. It has also demonstrated that adolescent drivers do better in cars with manual transmissions vs automatic. With my ADHD-inattentive type soon-to-be-driver in mind, I decided to get a car with a manual transmission. I learned on one when I was 16 and loved it! The decision itself might not have been bad--getting a car with a manual transmission. What was bad was the choice of vehicle. The Hyundai Elantra has a six-speed transmission. Unfortunately reverse is RIGHT NEXT TO first gear. There is no way to tell, from the instrument panel, which gear you are in after you come to a stop. Initially this was quite unnerving but I quickly figured out, if I pushed the clutch in as I was coming to a stop, I could not shift into reverse accidentally. However, even after 25 months it is difficult to tell, if I forget to do this, whether I am in reverse or first. The other issue is that second gear sticks frequently and badly. But only about half the time. And no. This does not happen because I don't have the clutch in all the way. The other thing that is lousy is the tires Hyundai puts on their new vehicles. I have now had three Hyundai's--Accent, Elantra, and Sonata. On all three the tires were seriously worn by 20 to 25k miles. On the current vehicle, the Elantra, the two front tires are bald and I am getting ready to replace all four. The upside on the car is the fuel economy. When driving on the highway I generally get close to 40mpg; in the city 30 to 32 mpg reliably.
