I leased this loaded 06 lx because I was leery of Hyundai as brand. 3 yrs.& 33k mi. Later I am going to buy it. Still love the car I spite of the 2 things that bug me=the seatbelt warning bell is going to die after I buy it and the am radio is the worst I have ever had (29 cars). I was going to buy a 09 but I hated the black carpet in the light interior. Stupid and cheap looking. (all the 08 ltd's were gone!) I average 24-25 mpg with the v6

I have had my Sonata for 5 years now and still like the car very much. I wish it would have some of the newer features, but no big deal. Gas is a plus as well.

2006 Hyundai Sonata LX Review

This car is truly remarkable. All I have been doing is regular oil changes and the Hyundai recommended services and this car has ran awesome. No problems whatsoever. Knock on wood! I guess, I m now a loyal Hyundai owner and would probably not think about switching to other car makers. My Maintenance cost till date has been $751.18 and this includes regular car washes, oil changes and the 7.5K, 15K, 39K and 37.5K hyundai recommended maintenance. I used to own a Japanese made car as well as a German made car before. I thought the Japanese cars were maintenance effective compared to German car, but I got to admit that Hyundai beat the Japanese car I had. Good car to own and operate!

I now have 30k on my '06. Would make the same purchase without hesitation. Yes, I wish fuel economy was better, but 200+ horsepower ain't free, I get 25mpg city and hiway. Quieter than the Buick Park Ave I replaced. People comment on how quiet the car runs and at hiway speeds. You can't buy anything as good as this car for anything near the money, I was off the lot for $18,200, wanted a Passat, but saved $4500 and got much more back seat room in the deal. Service costs have been negligable, most appointments have cost less than $50, worst one less than $200. Still feels fresh at 30k. Dealer was very good, actually had fun buying a car for the first time in my life.
