Great Car for driving. Alot ofluxury for the money. Built solid and i get alot of complements from people when thet see the car. they can't believe it is a hyundai. when you drive the car you do not feel the road and handles beautifully. i think hydundai will be a car that honda and toyota will have to complete against. i owed a toyota since 1992, and when i purchase my second toyota in 1998, i noticed it was not the same at their past quality of car.

We rented this car for 4 days. No experience with Hyundais before. It fit my 6'7" husband very well. We thought the ergonomics were great! It was very quiet, as quiet as our Avalon. We thought it handled fine. The suspension seemed fine to us (Edmund's does not like it). We were a bit disappointed in the gas mileage. When it comes time to purchase another sedan, we will definitely give it consideration.
Couldn't believe it was a Hyundai

The first time I saw this car I remember thinking, Wow, nice looking car. So I checked into it and was surprised to learn it was a Hyundai. I test drove it and fell in love with it! One month later, I owned it! (I had to get past the Hyundai name first.) It handles so nice and is very comfortable. My clients make comments like; Is it a Lincoln? Feels like we are sitting in a BMW? This is a Hyundai?. It has only been in for maintenance, besides that no problems!

This car has been everything promised, and more. Great ride, comfortable inside, looks sharp. The key for me was getting the color I wanted; Burgundy. The problems some owners describe, such as hard to see digital dash numbers during the day, touchy gas pedal, and less than average handling at higher speeds are all true, however they don't impact my enjoyment of this classy car.

We bought the XG350L when we were looking to replace a fully loaded 1999 Chrysler LHS. Would have loved the new 300C but the price was prohibitive. The XG350L had all of the options our LHS had (and more) and was under $22,000. What a deal!
a nice car for half the money

Lightly driven and well-maintained, this car has been in the shop for major mechanical problems four times. At around 4000 miles, the entire CAM had to be replaced. The car was then returned to the shop only a few dayas later because of a major oil leak caused by a faulty gasket. This car has been a nightmare! The wrecker that picked it up on it's first trip to the shop that he has picked up many XG350's. Looks like Hyundai threw up an airball when they made this one! Stay away!!!

Seeking some wheels with some upscale features I purchased an XG-350L, hoping for the best. My expectations have been exceeded -- I love the car. My chief complaint is that the mileage is only fair. On a 300 mile trip the BEST I have achieved is 31.7 mpg. Around town it is about 20 mpg. This is, however, a snappy, responsive car. Since I have as yet limited mileage on the car, only time will tell if my good luck will continue. I urge any or all to give it a good test drive.
easy decision

Afterlooking at full sized cars, it was easy to decide on the Hyundai 350L. Leather heated seats that you can preset to your driving comfort helped in our decision to by a Hyundai. The car probably would not suit a tall person but being just under six feet, it suits us fine. The fuel economy is ok at 20 mpg all around driving. With a 3.5 liter engine it has plenty of get up and go. The other feature we liked was the 10 year 100K warranty. We were able to negotiate a bumper to bumper warranty into the price. We're very happy with the car.
My best car yet

This is the fourth new car I ever owned and the best. My other new cars were a Honda Accord, a Pontiac Grand Am and a Jeep Grand Cherokee. I haven't had one problem with the car yet. Everything still works just like the first day I drove it out of the dealership. Just amazing!

This car has a nice smooth ride. It is a pleasure to ride and to me exceeds the comfort ratings of simularly priced mid-sized vehicles. I have had no mechanical problems or problems of any kind with this car. I get 27 mpg hwy @ 75mph. The one thing I would change would be the elimination of the cigarette lighters & ashtrays and substitute with radio controls on the steering wheel.
Very nice car

This is only the thrid day I have owned this car. Very nice all around. The touring tires seem to ride the ridges on the freeway. Cliamate control works well. Wish it had a pwr tilt wheel. Love the no framed door windows. Got about 22MPG on the first tank. Can here something vibrating lightly somewhere in the back. I have owned two other hyundai's and have loved the reliability. Now that I needed a lux car for my job, glad to see that hyundai can still service my needs. I can get 4% below invoice on a new ford, but still went for the hyundai due to the great warranty and the fact I can rely on it every day, sad to say about an american car, even thought we all live here. wtg hyundai!

We are very pleased with our purchase.The one thing that is a negative is the digital gauges are difficult to read in the daytime. Also I would add a compass to the computer. The ride is smooth and comfortable,and the response is good. I would buy another and tell my friends how much my wife and I both enjoy it.
Great Car

This is the second hyundai I have owned. And I am more than pleased with it. For the price I could not ask for a better car. I test drove a mustang and an ultima before buying it. It has much more interior comfort than the mustang and is so much smoother driving than the ultima that I could not believe it. In short I could not ask for a better car even if I paid more money.
Excellent car!

After my retirement I decided to purchase the XG350L rather than coninue with a mid-size luxury car. I now have an attractive, comfortable, reliable car with more amenities than previous cars. My friends are marveled with the ride and interior. Several have noted the Infinity sound system and said, "wow, you are now driving an Infiniti"! I have concluded that all autos have one or two shortcomings. I am pleased with the Hyundai and can make a larger donation to charities with the money saved.

After retiring I decided to get a car with many amenities, good performance, attractive and lower cost. I selected the Hyundai XG350L and I am most satisfied. After driving a Japanese luxury car for 10 years, I was very reluctant. Certainly there are some trade offs but nothing like I was led to believe or expected. I am now traveling with the savings.
This is quite a car!!

This is an amazing car. Especially for the price. Outside appearance is classy and elegant, like a much more expensive sedan, while inside has a very Lexus feel to it. Very luxurious, rich leather, lots of wood trim, rear seat air conditioning, huge trunk, tilt-down mirrors when backing up, a rearview mirror that adjusts itself for glare and a state of the art stereo system. Combine that with the best warranty in the business. All in all, this is the nicest car I have ever driven. I highly recommend it.

I purchased my car in January 2003, mainly due to the appearance and the how quite it was when driving down the road. Also, because of the fantastic warranties I knew I could not go wrong. Since then, it has been the best car I have ever owned. It is my 15th car that I have owned in my life. The only thing that I have a problem with is the type of material that the car is made of on the outside. It is really soft and can dent easily. Other than that it is great. Now going on two years old, it is just as quiet as it was the first day I purchased it. The performance is great. I have not had a problem with it at all. It will be two years old on January 19, 2005.

I can not understand the review that is printed . The XG350-L does not wander in turns. I drive this car in the mountains at speeds greater than posted limits and the car is like a rock. I feel very safe driving this car anywhere. The exterior style is not earth shattering, but it looks as good as a Lincoln LS for a lot less money. I had to get past the name, but when I did, I was glad I purchased my XG350-L.

If you closed your eyes and someone put you inside the vehicle you would think you were in a luxury vehicle. The interior fit and finish is excellent and Hyundai has hit a home run with this vehicle. Performance is more than adequate and the extras including the heated seats and high performance sound system are not items you find in a 25,000 dollar vehicle. Its plain jane appearance on the outside will not win you over but the performance and appearance on the inside is where I spend my time.

My wife recently bought a 350L. For around $2 $25000 not counting a trade in, you get a lot of car, with features that surpass the Mercedes Benz I own. Hyundai has finally come around and built a fine automobile. Good power, solid but comfortable ride, no options everthing included. Amazing how the South Koreans can produce a car like this for the money. If you like to show off your car and how much it costs, this is not a car for you. But if you're a down to earth person, the Hyundai is your car. My wife has been asked 3 or 4 times what model Mercedes is it? Goes to show you where Mercedes is going with its designs.

Bought this car figuring it was worth a shot for the price and with its' great warranty. I was very surprised to find it to be very reliable, comfortable and fun to drive. No complaints at all. One of the best cars I've ever owned and I have owned many fine cars including a Mercedes. This car is a steal!

I drove the XG-350 (rental) on several business trips to the Washington DC area. I actually thought I was getting into a blend of Jaguar and Lincoln the first time I saw it. It wasn't until I was out of the dark parking garage that I realized my "up-grade" was a XG-350. After that I made it a point to drive them when I could. It's solid, smooth, and quiet at and above interstate speed limits. Truth is it will fly at relatively moderate RPM. At speed limit (65-70 mph) I get 32-33 MPH. Above speed limit 21-22 MPH is the norm. Its quietness will deceive you. Don't be surprised when you think you are doing 70 and its 85 or above. Love this car. It's a winner in all categories.

We keep a car at least ten years so depreciation is not a consideration. Our lastcar was a Lincoln Towncar. We'll not have another. The XG350L came with EVERYTHING! (Except sat. navigation & rear mud flaps.Any comparable brand would have cost 8 to10K more. Great warranty!
