I was curious if anybody on here owns a Hyundai Elantra (circa 2002-2005ish) and if so, what do you think of it?
Back in December I bought a used car and from day 1 it was nothing but trouble. Finally after putting about 3x what is worth in repairs for it, the air compressor seized this past Monday. At the cost of repairing it.. I've given up on the car. My mom is being more than generous enough to give me the money for a new one so I can have a good reliable car to get me to college and my internship. If I had my way, I'd get a sporty car I like ;x But that won't really be happening at this moment because of insurance costs. I have about 8k-9k to spend. I really don't care much for style at this point anymore. Im 21 and have the rest of my life to get the car of my dreams. Right now I am looking for something reliable. Overall it seems the Elantra has extremely good reviews. I was just looking to get the opinion of actual Elantra owners. What do you think of your car? Have you had any real problems with it? What kind of gas mileage do you get? Does the car have any trouble with pick-up or things along those lines?
Any info would be helpful. I'm going in the morning in protest to test drive a very overpriced 2001 cavalier that my moms husband thinks would be perfect :roll eyes::. While at the dealer I will also be looking at a 2006 Chevy Aveo. Does anybody have any opinons on the Aveos? Online reports seem to not be so good.
I don't know much about cars. I've done a lot of research over the last few days. Just looking for opinions.
