sportywell designed compact
This car provided trouble free, fun service for 7 years at a good price. The only drawback is visibility is only fair.

One fun little sporty econo-car
To me, this car is the best combination of having good gas mileage (I'm averaging around 33 MPG currently, mix of city and hwy) and good looks. I'm partial to hatchbacks and this one is a looker. The interior quality is nice, nicer than the Mk4 VW Golf I owned in the past. The Dual Clutch transmission takes some getting used to (when you let off the brake, the clutch engages and car starts rolling, just like if you had a manual and put it into 1st gear). I like not having a "slush box" between the engine and wheels. Some people have complained about the lack of power. Sure, in 1st and 2nd gears it is fairly gutless, but once you get to 3rd it can really accelerate due to the low weight
Hyundai Paint Problems
We bought the car new 4 years ago. The paint on the top and sides of the car has faded. The clear coat on the rear bumper peeled and the dealer would not repaint it citing the 3 year warranty on paint. Of course, the clear coat peel didn't show up until 3 1/2 years of ownership. If you are considering buying a used one look the paint over carefully. If you are considering a new one--DON'T BUY IT.
