for your age. Muscle cars are not where it's at. I like the economy cars much more and Hyundai does them well. So does Kia. They are now receiving some mainstream awards for their craftsmanship. I noticed it though on my 1999 Kia Sephia. There was something very desirable about that car and people let me know on the Internet that the car was a POS. Obviously I disagreed. I saw a future for Kia and big bro Hyundai is steam rolling along and also has a very, very bright future. Enjoy your ride and the Arizona sun-we sure are diggin' the Arizona life over here just north of the US-Mexico border. |

Replying to: backy (Dec 08, 2006 1:09 pm) " this car only" so it was not a special for multiple cars but this very specific one. I said again and again that i would NOT get a 2 doors but i really enjoyed the accent on my test drive... I always had 2 doors (except for my cherokee) and i did not wanna go back to the assle of moving/getting out of the car thing with a 2 doors  on the other hand, i also had a wrangler for a couple of yrs and that car has to be the most "unpractical" "pain in the butt" car when it comes to loading ppl or stuff. the driver seat moves back and forth but you cant let ppl in on the side (it was a 1994) and i had to flip back the back seat everytime i went grocery shopping or had my dog in the car... and i will not comment with the soft top / hard top installation !!! but i LOVE my JEEP !!!!! so anyways...i got a question for owners(or anyone for that matter) i saw somewhere that there is a pedal in the back on the front seats for passengers to use to move the seats to make getting out easy? and also, i see that the brochure is mentionning a reclining back seat but the sales guy never said anything about that...so what is the deal, they recline or not? i know the guy at toyota made a big deal of it(the reclining seat) in the yaris and is the rear window wiper only available with the SE? that is my understanding at this point and i have to admit that i wish it was standard on the GS too...it should be part of the prefered pck with a/c and the CD payer

Replying to: canuck785 (Dec 08, 2006 1:51 pm) The rear seat DOES recline, but not much--just a couple of inches I'd estimate. But I found it useful as it makes the seatback a little more comfy. I think you are correct that the rear wiper is only on the SE. I know that Consumer Reports griped about lack of a rear wiper on the GS they tested (although they could have tested a SE and it would have fallen mid-pack in pricing with the cars they tested). But maybe you should go for the SE anyway, as it has better handling, those cool 16" wheels, more gauges, rear wiper, leather wheel/shifter, and most importantly... ABS with 4-wheel disc brakes. |

Replying to: backy (Dec 08, 2006 2:14 pm) the reason i am trying to keep to price tag really low is that I won't have a big down payment and no car to trade-in for. backy, do you know if hyundai as specials on regular basis? and while i am at it my sticker would be 12.317$ for a GS with prefered pck right? what would be a good deal to get? i know there is not a big mark up on them, but how much lower should I expect to get if i try a bit?? question for yaris owners: on all the pics i am seeing, the speedo is white(light colored) numbers on a black back. the one we test drove, had the opposite, black numbers on white/silvery (ugh!) why is that??? |

Replying to: canuck785 (Dec 12, 2006 2:23 pm) Hyundai dealers typically offer discounts, and this is a good time of year for you--year-end. There is no general rebate on the Accent now, and that may change in early 2007 (speculation based on history) but you seem to need a car now, so shoot for one on the 29th or 30th. Certainly don't settle for sticker!
