I actually have the cocoa leather and it is really nice, alot more black then brown. I also live in Florida and while it gets a little hot its not unbearable, also i'm kinda use to it. But these care are equipped with excellent A/C which works quickly to cool it down. It also looks a little more classy then the beige, and should age somewhat better.

Yes! I feel bad as I thought it was my daughter or her friend who hadn't showered, but it did it when they weren't in the car and it was just me and I  HAD just showered. Has anyone had any luck finding out what a fix is?
I've alerted my dealership to this---even though I know think they think I'm the crazy complaining lady. LOL

Valet Key Trunk Lockout Feature

After writing a letter to Hyundai, they called me to say that some 2009 Sonatas got the feature and others did not based on manufacture date. They said my Sonata did not get the feature and that I could not get it installed. They even threatened that any attempt to install it would be considered "after market" and would invalidate my warrantee. End of story except that I wrote them a letter saying that they should have let dealers and customers know and that it was unfair because there is no price difference for those who got the feature and those who did not.

I don't know about the Sonata specifically, but I do know that occasionally people report certain brands of gas can cause a rotten egg type smell. That might explain why it's more apparent with the sunroof open, i.e., that's an opening for the exhaust to be more noticeable.
Might be worth experimenting with different brands to see if it makes a difference. Just a thought.

As with all manufacturers Hyundai constantly makes what are called "running changes" to their automobiles and SUV's. This is why you see (in fine print) on all auto brochures the statement (to paraphrase) "all information shown here is accurate at the time of printing" which simply means something might be added-removed or modified to change the specifications or features depending on the date of manufacture. Nothing new here.... running changes are usually minor so don't expect dealers to be kept up to date on them (most salesmen/salespersons I talk to don't know the product as well as I do) and don't expect Hyundai to revise the price every time they add, subtract or modify some detail, trim item or feature. Methinks thou dost complain too much.

Perhaps I complain too much but there is so little else to complain about with this car. The only other 2 items I can think of to complain about are the suspension "thump" noise on rough roads and the almost too short front seat. Many factors indicate the valet key feature is standard and has been standard (with knobs) until 2009 when they introduced an electronic replacement but not on all cars. Attention to detail could help Hyundai in the race with Nissan and Honda.
