We were looking for a new car for winter driving b/c we also own a 2001 BMW. Test drive Hondas, Toyotas, Mazda. For a comparably equipped Japanese car we'd have to pay more. Never thought about a Huyndai. Almost bought a Protoge until seeing the Sonata in the dealer's lot. One test drive and we were sold. The car has been flawless. I am extremely glad I got this car.

Is Driving Believing?

While I've only owned my Sonata (Black LX)for a month, I'd put it up against my wife's 2000 Honda Accord any day. The handling is responsive and sporty for a midsize sedan, the ride is smooth and quiet and the acceleration is more than I expected from only 218 horsepower. I have a fairly long commute and this engine provides better than expected power, coupled with good gas mileage for 6 cylinders.

Only one problem, the silver trim fell off during a long trip.

I have over 140,000 miles on my car and so far I've only replaced minor parts due to wear and tear. Its very reliable and easy to repair for the do-it-themselves type. Parts are cheap and durable. I expect to at least drive another 100,000 before considering another car.
