Value and Dependability

I bought this car new for my wife who uses it to commute 80 miles to work every day. Well, after 7 years and 122K miles I can say this car was a bargain. We've performed all the scheduled maintenance and haven't had any problems. Beware the cost to change the plugs, labor was $234, however I've only had to do it twice. Great little car with all the LX amenities. Liked it so much bought a Hyundai XG-350 for myself.

My wife picked out the car, strictly based on looks (and the fact a Jag is out of our price range). I compared the car to the Camry and the Accord. Based on performance, features and cost the Sonata was the hands down winner. After owning it a while I found it fun to drive, with plenty of power, no matter what the horsepower really is. The airbag recall was a non event. The A/C failed (compressor) and was fixed after a three day wait for parts. No charge, and the dealer went out of their way to make us happy. Makes me real interested in their Santa Fe.

JUST BOUGHT THE VEHICLE ON THURSDAY 12/6/02. VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE LAYOUT OF THE CONTROLS INSIDE, THE QUALITY OF THE PAINT FINISH.RIDE QUALITY, PERFORMANCE QUALITY IS ALL THERE! BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE FOR $17, 200 PLUS TAX AND LICENSE. COMES WITH MICHLIN X TIRES, FULLY LOADED. BEFORE YOU BUY A CAMRY, OR ACCORD TAKE A REAL CLOSE LOOK AT THIS SONATA. EXCELLENT DOLLAR VALUE!
