  great small car! - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By sts7049 - March 11 - 10:20 am

  I was skeptical about buying a Hyundai at first based on past reputation, but Im definitely sold on them now. Great amount of features for the price you pay. The manual transmission makes it fairly sporty to drive, and Im averaging a solid 30 mpg in mixed driving. Plenty of room on the inside, spacious trunk. Have only had one minor issue that was fixed quickly under warranty, other than that no problems whatsoever. My only other minor complaint is I wish the gearing was such that the rpms on the freeway would come down a bit - at 70 mph its at about 3000 rpm, which is a tad noisy. Its not bothersome though.

  18,000 mile review - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By Brian - February 15 - 11:24 pm

  This is a follow up with my earlier post on my initial purchase. I have now logged 18,000 miles after 1 year and 2 months. I have not had any mechanical problems and I have not had any part on this car break on me. I am getting a solid 25-27 mpg in city and 33-36 mpg on the highway. I have installed various after market devices and still have not had any electrical problems. Although the car can use an extra 20-30 hp for passing, but still acceleration is adequate. Air conditioning gets the job done, even during 100 degree summer temps. After driving this car for over a year I would recommend this car for people that want a car that is good on gas, comfortable and great for a commuter.

  Great car for the price - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By willie - January 4 - 8:34 pm

  Overall the car is great! Excellent mileage, though a better engine and tranny could really get u going, great for commute/long distance. Plenty of leg space. For a $12k car, you cant go wrong! Forget about trading it in after 4 years!

  good job, hyundai! - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By sammy - January 4 - 3:33 pm

  I just bought my quicksilver Elantra Limited with XM radio. What a nice little car to drive! Robust feel, comfortable and smooth driving, and its really queit on the road. Very impressive for small compact car! Interior fit and finish is on top level, and i love the blue interior lighting! good engine power with good mileage, this car is the winner! It even got a smooth leather seats! I also received $3000 off the MSRP with $1000 rebate, my Elantra LIMITED came out $16000 including tax, fees and everything! WHAT A VALUE! My brother owns 05 Corolla S, Elantra drives so much quiter and smoother than Corolla. this is far better car than corolla with thousands less!

  A Piece Of Paper is More RELIABLE - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By lemlonboy - December 27 - 4:02 pm

  My used 2007 Hyundai Elantra is ok. Its a very practical car but Ive had to replace my air conditioner 3 times in 2 weeks. My headlight froze and fell out in a -35 Celsius day in Alberta. And Hyundai says its over abuse on the car! Plus Ive only had this car for 3 weeks. It was a former rental from Avis. This car is bad except the looks and fuel economy. DO NOT BUY A HYUNDAI ELANTRA!!!!

  My Hyundai rules! - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By KC - December 23 - 4:30 pm

  We get 29-32 mpg even w a lead foot! I still see Elantras on the road & think what a pretty car-oh its like mine! I still enjoy looking outside & seeing my shiny red car in the drive. The interior room is great compared to others in this class, although I agree that the plastic could use an upgrade on the door panels. The trunk is huge. It rides great, but we had to switch out tires as the original ones were death-traps on snow. But now it hauls through the slush and though it slides a bit, I havent gone off the road yet (my friend in a Subaru Outback has 2xs this yr!) I highly recommend it to anyone thinking of buying it. Its a great car for the price-we got ours used-it was a rental.

  Kory The Korean - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By First-time Foreigner - November 23 - 8:54 pm

  For the last year, I have been the excited owner of this remarkable economy car. Driving this vehicle is an absolute pleasure as it is very comfortable, quick, and excellent on gas. I have taken several road trips including a 3000-mile round trip to Arizona and have never been more comfortable in a vehicle, especially not one of this size. The dashboard layout is impeccable and the lights are beautiful. The engine noise is minimal and returns fantastic performance, even while climbing 6% mountain grades in northern AZ. With 48,000 miles, this car gives me great reason to expect several more years of reliability and and pleasurable driving.

  Great First Car - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By ksjones - September 19 - 12:00 pm

  We purchased this car for our 15 year old daughter. Since she is a beginning driver, we wanted something that’s safe, easy to drive, with all the bells and whistles for under $20k. We’re impressed with the handling, gas mileage, interior features and space, and warranty. However, it is a bit noisy. Overall the Elantra is a great value for the money.

  Excellent Ride - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By Barb - September 10 - 10:24 am

  This car has a 3.8 24valve overhead engine. We have kept the display for mileage on over a 3,000 mile period of time and have averaged 27.9 mi per gal. The space for hauling is amazing. We hauled two oak doors in it with the back seats folded down. It has lots of snap, very easy to handle, great to see out of and a very comfortable ride with great lumbar support. Love it.

  Test Drive one before buying another car - 2007 Hyundai Elantra
  By Todd - August 6 - 4:33 pm

  This is an excellent little car! This car drives nicer than the corolla and civic and handles great. Very comfortable. The fuel economy is not as good as I had hoped. I get 25 around town a lot of stop and go. It is very fun to drive and has a great little sound system. I like the mp3 aux jack. Drive this car before you decide to pay more for another model.
