 I traded in a 2005 Accent (that I bought new also) on this car a year ago. This car is even better than the 2005 was.  Solid quality in and out, superb warranty, fun to drive, economical, and sharp-looking.  I love the hatchback.  My wife and I just returned from a 4000 mile vacation with no problems.  For the trip, I removed the rear seats to make even more cargo room!  Fantastic automobile that handles very well.
