Worth The Money

2003 Hyundai Sonata GLS 4dr Sedan (2.7L 6cyl 4A)

So often we consumers don't get our money's worth. You won't have to worry about that with the Hyundai Sonata GLS 2.7l. This is an excellent car for the money. The car offers many luxury features at a cost of an economy car. Don't forget the warranty!! If you are in the market, I urge you to shop around then look at the Hyundai! You will NOT be disappointed.

Well, I bought my car 2 months ago. I'm 16. It's kinda big for a 16 year old. But I like it b/c it suits me. I like the exterior design and the interior is tan and shows stains. Car takes off slow u must put your foot into it. Other than that I love the gas mileage and the way it looks. My friends also insist we take my car when we go somewhere. So overall I love it. It also looks brand new when its 5 years old.

Best Investment for lowest dollar

Minimal cost other than routine maintenance, oil changes, tires, brakes. Gas mileage better than stated on sticker; in fact, at 145,000 miles better than when first purchased. Handles excellant, rides like new after the miles. Best vehicle I have ever purchased. Mistaken for much more expensive vehicles - BMW, Mercedes and jag with the price of a Yugo.... LOL workmanship much better than any vehicle I have driven, including multiple rentals since I drive approx 100,000 per year for work. Have never had to use the warranty other than for a dead battery which was on my behalf.

Phenomenal bang for the buck!

2003 Hyundai Sonata LX 4dr Sedan (2.7L 6cyl 4A)

The Sonata is truly a steal at under $20,000. The leather in the LX is supple, the faux-wood trim looks anything but fake and the automatic climate control with air (I believe polen) filter is a nice feature for lazy driver's such as myself. The car rides smooth and feels solid with just the slightest understeer at higher speeds. The child safety features are wonderful. They made putting my dughter's car seat in a breeze!

I bought my 03 Sonata brand new in 2003. I have loved the look and performance ever since. It now has over 100K miles on it and it's still going strong. We drive from OK to Galveston, TX yearly without any issues. I would definitely buy another one, when this one gives out, that is.
