I purchased my 2005 Hyundai Elantra after having my other car totaled in an accident. It was priced appropriately. There was enough room in the car for my belongings without being cramped. The gas mileage was better than my previous car. The windows were tinted which was helpful for the hot Arizona sun. It handled well in rain and snow. It even handled mountain driving well without overheating. The interior had faux leather seats. It made it look higher end without the paying the price. I used to commute 60 minutes to work round trip five–six days a week. I now use it to carry my son and three dogs around. We drive to weekly dog tournaments. Sometimes three plus hours away. I have also camped out of this car comfortably. The sun roof was a nice added feature.

This car has great power for its size and is very comfortable. The fuel economy was one of the main selling points for me but overall I have been very happy with how this vehicle handles. It is not the most stylish in it's class but it has everything that I could possibly need in a commuting car.
