meh no my cup of tea (eww tea, not my cup of tea either) But it ought to be hella good on gas and that little thing should do great tricks on snow and ice! oh but look out for everyone else's vehicles, cause they will eat yours.  I don't like being next to trucks with my Tour let alone a car even smaller.

My dashboard hasn't shown any signs of warping because it sat in the sun all day.  Nice on the guy term though.  -SAV

I was *very* seriously considering the Elantra GT five-door hatchback myself when shopping for a car - the only detriments being a slow engine and a reportedly fast-wearing clutch (several reviews on carsurvey.org that mentioned this). They're good little cars, particularly newer ones. I would definitely support a Hyundai purchase. The Accent is a decent A->B commuter, although after my Probe GT I can say I will never buy a car without power locks/windows ever again.
Congrats on the new car .. if not a step up, at least it's a step forward .. you got a really good price for your old cars as well.
I don't understand the adjectives used in describing your car on CarDomain though, unless they're sarcasm .. "amazing 105 HP" .. "whopping 106 ft-lbs torque" .. "huge 14" wheels"?

no wonder why ppl leave this forum so rapidly.. don't any of you guys ever have anything decent to say? OH well you don't like the car.. get over it, don't diss the guy on his purchase..
that car is probably more reliable then any contour... you guys diss a car thats purpose is to get ppl from point a to point b in a reliable manner, its not suppose to be a great fancy car.. but I know for sure it does the job better then a contour.. my contour has 146,000 kms and I can make a list of how much crap broke on the pos already.. I'm close to tossing it and just driving my god damn civic this winter.

Enjoy it!
I'm sure you'll have good luck with it. Did you get the balance of the 5 year and 10 year warranties??
At the price point of Hyundai and the warranty they come with, they'd be at the top of my list for a future purchase (if I ever buy a new car again).
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.
