 Well, here it is 2013 and my 2006 Hyundai Elantra GLS is still going strong.128k miles on it, its paid off, and it has only had a few issues over the past six years other than standard maintenance.The one thing that still irks the hell out of me though is the staring wheel material.It has degraded and is basically crumbling away.I took it to the dealership when i was still within the 60k bumper to bumper warranty.They had the nerve to tell me it was not covered and i was causing the damage with my finger nails???Oh well, that's what black electrical tape and steering wheel covers are for.All in all i am hoping to keep this car another two years for my daughter.
