 My family owned this car and a 2005 Elantra.  We have owned 2 previous Elantras.  I went from driving a 2001 Infiniti I30.  We traded it in a an Elantra GT.  I loved the GT but needed a larger car, so we got this Sonata.  What a dream.  This  car reminds me of my Infiniti, WITHOUT the extra cost of premium unleaded gas.  This car has it all.  Great pickup, great radio and great overall value.  I love this car.  I recommend the 6 cyl. though.  The 4 cyl. doesnt have the pick up.  It is sluggish.  After driving it as a loaner car, we bought it.  I really recommend this car.  I love it!!!
