2000 Hyundai Elantra GLS review from North America

"Peppy econo sedan that is reliable"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The only thing to go wrong with this car is a flat tire even though it was stock and a can of Fix-a-Flat took care of it I can't blame Hyundai for it.

General comments?

Interior is spacious and comfortable.

I really enjoy driving a 140bhp car that I bought for so little money. This car has enough juice to keep the average sedan driver happy. The only complaint I have here is the auto tranny is a little bit twitchy. If your driving along at say 40mph, your already in 4th gear. If you hit the gas to change lanes the tranny quickly shifts to 3rd and stays there for a few seconds. Then the tranny decides it wants to give you a little more by shifting into 2nd gear? I should add that while it makes the shift (about.5 seconds) your car almost slows down, and after the shift it takes off like a bat outta hell and roars like a sports.

I do love this car, but unfortunately for the Hyundai I graduated from college and I'm ready for a sports car.

There is only one thought I would like to leave with potential buyers this car embodies the phrase 'Bang for your buck'. In other words you get a hell of a lot of bang for very few bucks.
