I like that it is affordable and it's a nice commuter car while in college. Also Hyundai has a great warranty which is why I chose Hyundai.

I really like the way my car looks to start out with. It's red with a tan interior, and as soon as I saw it, I knew I wanted it. I could just imagine myself driving it which as a good sign, because looking at other cars, I couldn't. I have friends that also drive Elantra's, so they recommended it to me. It was built in 2013 and only had 13,000 miles on it when I got it which I really liked. It was used as a loaner car at CarMax when others were getting work done, so I knew it hadn't been overdriven. I was a little worried that it might be kind of dirty inside from lots of different people driving it, but it surprisingly wasn't and has been fine. It drives smoothly, which I like because my last car did not and hasn't really given me any problems -- except shortly after I got it I thought it was leaking something (it was the air conditioning ,and I apparently am an idiot), and the air pressure in the tires went down rather quickly. Since then, the car's been fine, and I absolutely love it. I do wish it had a back-up camera, though as sometimes when I'm parallel parking, it's hard to judge how large the car is. I know I have bad depth perception, and I should've gotten a car with a back-up camera to begin with, but I didn't, and I wish I had. One thing I found interesting is the pedal for the car -- the toe part pushes down instead of the heel.
