Re: Hyundai vs. Honda
[ QUOTE ]
My wife is getting a new car. She is interested in low cost, high gas mileage, and durability. She likes a Honda Civic and a Hyundai Elentra. I need feedback on these options, as well as some other ideas if you have them. [/ QUOTE ] 3 weeks ago I bought a Civic. I drive about 130 miles RT to and from work 4 days a week. The 40 MPG has already started saving me 20-30$ a week in cold hard cash. The car is very sporty to drive. The new HUD makes you feel like your in a race car of soem kind..at least it did for me. The first car I looked at because of the current incentives, and the MPG was the Hyundia Sonata. I am very glad i did not get one, the feel it gave me while driving was "eh" at best. There is slightly more room in it, but the 7-8 mpg diff will more then make up for that. I also have a Honda lawn mower if that helps..lol [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Hyundai vs. Honda
Maybe this will change folks opinions on Hyundais:
I may seriously trade my Infiniti G35x in for one of these, when they're available next year... 4.6L V8 "well over" 300 hp 20" wheels 6-speed manual "well under" 6.0 0-60

[/ QUOTE ] Sorry..."pit" = "deodorant" in the parts of Canada I've lived in. And in recalling the post I thought he'd mentioned deodorant. I'm not...I'm not smart.

Re: Hyundai vs. Honda
Even if you want to claim that Hyundai has come a long way reliability wise(which is has) the resale values of the two cars are nowhere near each other. Sad but true.
