Summer, 2015, Northern California. Those who live here know that a foggy morning could turn into a scorcher later on in the day. So I was looking for a car to replace my oldie without A/C, otherwise I would be a toasty pig in a blanket. When I laid my eyes on the Elantra, I knew this was the car for me. From the exterior to the interior, it felt like the car was cut from a single piece of metal—all of the lines melted into each other. From the little shark fin radio antenna to the viper eye looking headlights and taillights to the "smiling" radiator grille, this car has the aesthetics of a praying mantis ready to pounce out onto the road. The little 1.8L engine that could, providing a zippy experience, capable of merging into traffic with the big boys and providing countless hours of fun hugging the turns of the NorCal coastline. Love every bit of this car.

I think this is a great car. The build of the car is sleek and cool. It is a model that can fit anyone's style. It comes in a variety of different colors and the inside is technologically advanced. I own the basic package and I still get XM, mileage data, and cruise control. I previously owned a gas guzzler of a car, but my Elantra is so fuel efficient. I've driven over 50,000 miles and haven't had one issue. I'm a basketball coach, so I constantly have gear, basketballs, and kids in my car. The trunk provides lots of space to store everyone's things and the backseat is roomy enough to pack out when going to our games. I would recommend this car, and any model from Hyundai without reservation.
