2002 Hyundai Accent GS review from North America
"Exactly what I need to get to where I'm going"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
After 3 years of ownership, I have not had any negative issues with the car.
General comments?
I get an average of 30 mpg in combined city and hwy driving. With gas prices going up, this is a good thing.
Handling is very good on country roads, glides over bumps and does pretty good in rain too.
Seats are a bit uncomfortable after two hours of driving, but OK for around town.
All controls are within easy reach and functional, although cheap looking.
Overall the car is perfect as reliable transportation to and fro. If you take good care of it, I feel it would last forever.
This car is not a luxury car, not a sports car, a styling car, a sexy car, a girl magnet or an investment. It's just a car, nice looking, but just a car.
