Overall, I think that the 2008 Hyundai Accent is a great entry-level vehicle. I like that it is small, and I don't have to worry about getting into tight spaces with it. It gets pretty good gas mileage, too. I usually average around 35 MPG which is good for all the hills I have to deal with. Because it is a small entry-level car, it does have a couple downfalls to it. If I'm driving down a less than well-maintained road, it gets pretty loud in the car. It also is pretty light, so I have to be careful in slick road conditions. I feel very safe in it as well. I've bumped a couple small things, but the car hasn't really taken any damage!

This car holds its resale value greatly. Great on gas. Great for petite adults. Trunk bigger than you think. Low maintenance. Easy to park. No blind spot. Great sound system. Safety issues never a concern. Never a recall. Easy to self repair using standard tools.
