1997 Hyundai Sonata Base Sedan review from North America
"Good for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothin yet. The headlights seem too dim for some, and the air filter needed replacement. The tires up front wear quickly, even with a lot of highway driving.
General comments?
25 thousand miles and counting. Still going strong. Stereo works great for stock. Seats can be frustrating when trying to slide back on the track. They do not go back far enough, and even though I am 6'4", my knees hit the steering wheel.
