Replying to: bwctaccent (Nov 15, 2006 4:34 pm) I'd be careful! I had a 2000 Elantra wagon that I got rid of after 60,000 miles and 4 transmissions. Yes, 4 of them! It kept blowing sensors which would cause it to shut down on the interstate or wherever I was and the fix for the bad sensor was another transmission. They even replaced the master computer once!   Another thing I learned, they don't give you new transmissions. Hyundai uses rebuilt transmissions so ASK as to what you're getting.   On the other hand, my 99 Accent has been great. Besides a coil, all I've addes is gas and oil. I own it and won't part with it.

Replying to: beowulf58 (Jan 11, 2007 6:41 am) 2007 Hyundai Accent GS hatchback stick with air...price paid: $12,300 (invoice).   The buying experience was that same typical tense deceptive affair that I've come to expect of a new car purchase. This one was particularly nerve-racking, with one salesman handing us off to a second salesman about halfway through the process (the ole good cop/bad cop routine), and since we were looking for the best rate on the financing, we also had to deal with the business manager. These people practice deception on a daily basis, so, unless you also do this, you are at a distinct disadvantage in any negotiation. We ended up getting the car at invoice, which I was satisfied with. They did however try to make an extra few hundred by overstating the cost of some added dealer accessories on the car, and figuring our state sales tax at a higher rate that it should have been. We challenged them on the sales tax thing, and they straightened it out...we let them have the higher than normal markup on the few dealer accessories (it only amounted to about a hundred dollars).   I really love having a new car, but I really hate the hasssle of buying one.
#11 of 56 4 transmissions...I dispute that!! by prosource1 Jan 22, 2007 (7:34 pm)
My brother who lives in Asbury, KY has a 1997 Elantra wagon with 180,000 miles and original engine and tranny. He has had two small issues. This post seems to be written by someone who is 'downing' the product. I will give you his phone # and as a former Toyota owner, he will gladly tell you and show you his green elantra wagon that is still running and working great.

Replying to: prosource1 (Jan 22, 2007 7:34 pm) Prosource, I think we I just got one bad car in a bunch of decent ones. I don't doubt your brother's good fortune. My 99' Accent has been a dream and I won't part with it. In fact, I bought a 96' Accent off a friend just for run-around purporse so the wife can park her gas guzzling Pontiac.
#13 of 56 Hyundai Accent OTR Price - PA by just_tired May 01, 2007 (9:13 am)
How much did you pay for you Hyundai Accent GLS 4 door? The dealership I am working with is charging me $14,800 + [tags and tags]. They are offering the Sports Premium Package in this deal. I would like to know if this is a good deal for me.

#15 of 56 Replaced my '99 with an '07 by vinnyg May 07, 2007 (5:16 pm)
Hi, just a little over a month ago I replaced my '99 Accent GL with an '07 GS hatchback with auto, air, and upgraded stereo. My local dealer advertised it for $11,991 with the $500 discount, and another $500 owner loyalty discount. I called them up and verified that was the real price; no college or military discounts pre-applied, and they told me it was correct. I went down with my current registration to prove I currently own a Hyundai, and they charged me $12,991 minus the $1000 cash back for a total of 11,991. Not a bad deal considering I paid about $1000 less for my '99 over 8 years ago (which still runs great and has over 206,000 miles clocked). Very little maintainence has been required, as I change the oil every 25,000 miles with Amsoil, and do the timing and drive belts every 60,000 miles. Thats not bad for an inexpensive, reliable small car, especially with the gas prices these days.
#16 of 56 how much to pay for a used 2007 GS manual accent ? by kamysinger Oct 08, 2007 (4:49 pm)
I was offered by a dealership a GS 3 doors hatchback 2007, manual with the AC package. It is from leasing according to carfax(the dealer says it was driven by Hyudai worker from Korea) and has 8 month ownership according to carfax. has 16,000 miles. clean accident history. I am thinking of offering 9.5K (the dealer asked for 11.4K) is 9.5K too much? Does anyone know what is the real price for a new car as this one?   Thanks
#17 of 56 Engine replaced in my 2007 Accent by regularcarguy Oct 12, 2007 (8:13 am)
We will be selling our 2007 Hyundai Accent, which has approximately 3,000 miles.   The car had an unusual problem -- it came with a faulty engine. Part of the engine was just replaced -- the short block. Several months ago, the head gasket was replaced.   The repairs were done under warranty.   Assuming that our car's engine problems are now completely solved, I was wondering if anyone knows if having a new engine put into a 10 month old car would affect the car's resale value.
