 Wow!  Look out Toyota and Honda.  If you are considering a corolla or a civic I would recommend you stop by a Hyundai dealership and test drive the Elantra Touring. Excellent build,features and overall design.  This vehicle is a european Hyundai with german design.  Ride is excellent and the ESC, traction control, six airbags and 4 wheel anti-lock disc brakes are standard. Add the 5 year, 60,000 mile warranty and you can see why Hyundai recently outperformed Toyota in customer satisfation.  This vehicle is well thought out.  This is my first Hyundai and previously drove a Volvo S80.  Volvo may want to look in there rearview mirror. Hyundai is right behind them.
