  Great Car! - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By Gman - February 3 - 5:40 pm

  Overall I love my Elantra. When I was looking to buy a new car last year, I singled in on the Elantra because of its rave reviews and all the comparisons people were making between it and similar vehicles (Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic) in terms of dependability and other perks. My previous vehicle was a Toyota Corolla (so far I like the Elantra just as much). During the first year of ownership Ive not had any mechanical problems (knock on wood) and have had to do minimal maintenance on it. Its exactly what I wanted in a vehicle.

  2007 Hyundai Elantra with Paint Problems - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By frustatedhyundaiuser - January 17 - 4:10 pm

  2007 Hyundai Elantra (fiery red color), 32k miles, “under warranty”, with sections of peeling clear coat and localized areas of fracturing paint, penetrating through the clear coat & top coat on the hood, roof, and trunk. Car was bought brand new in late 2007 (previous year’s model). Within one year, these issues began appearing, and have progressively gotten worse. Now, there are 50+ total spots throughout the car’s paint surface.

Its exactly what I wanted in a vehicle--its dependable, low-maintenance, nice looking, has acceptable gas mileage, has good standard features, and wasnt outrageous in terms of pricetag.

  Great car for the price - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By Lonnie - January 1 - 9:41 pm

  I bought this car as a commuter mostly because of the gas mileage. I was fully expecting to have to make allowances for driving an "economy" car but have been completely surprised in all respects. People are going to laugh but I actually drive my Elantra on weekends now while my 07 Caddy CTS spends most of the time in the garage. Absolutely no problems with nearly 45000 miles on the clock. I added aftermarket tinting and put new, larger tires on it with some aftermarket wheels just for appearance sake but theres not much else Id change about this car. All this for under 13000 out the door. Great job, Hyundai!

  Very very pleased - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By JeffM - December 27 - 12:30 pm

  I am very pleased with the car. Very quiet on the road, good but not great acceleration, handles very nimbly, will hold 90 mph with seemingly no effort or noise.

  Satisfied Shopper 2004 elantra & 2007! - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By Kirsten - November 24 - 10:30 pm

  On Oct 10th my fiance and I were in a car accident that totaled our 2004 Hyundai Elantra. Everyone was fine thanks in part to how safe the vehicle itself was! Now on Oct 18th, after looking at many different cars and dealerships, we ended up going back to the guys who sold us the 04 and buying an 07. My first impression of the 07 was how well it handled. Im able to turn corners sharper than before and my acceleration is amazing compared to anything else Ive driven. The trunk space is amazing (though you wouldnt think so from the outside!) The small details are great a purse/trash holder in front is neat!

  After owning a BMW that was expensive to upkeep, buying this car was great. I love the gas mileage and it is fun to drive. The sound system rocks!

  25,000 and climbing - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By limee925 - September 2 - 7:50 pm

  Have had the vehicle 2 years. Absolutely no problems with anything. Put gas in the car and drive with oil changes every 5000 miles. Not a creak, groan or rattle. Very happy with everything that I use the car for. Its comfortable with great gas mileage consistently in the low 30s with mixed driving. Best so far has been 39.8mpg on a 700 mile drive to Washington state. Would certainly recommend to anyone who wants a solid, dependable, reliable, comfortable car who has an aversion to dealers workshops!
