Why not get a smaller car? Instead of a Sonata get a smaller Jap car. The early Sonatas had terrible trouble with their gearboxes, but the new ones would probably be better. You will get better resale value with Toyota / Honda - look around a bit longer - don't rush at all

I'll give you some good advice buddy, 1st never go into a car dealer telling them how much you can afford per month, that just gives them the right to charge you as much as possible for more car and years then you want/need. 2nd, if buying new limit the loan to 5 years(60 months) so if you are buying a $18,000 Sonata that would be $300 a month, a loan longer then that means you can't afford it and will leave you upside down longer(car worth less then you owe on the loan) and since the warranty runs out at 5 yrs(bumper-bumper) you don't want to be paying on a loan should a repair come out at that point...plus your maintenance will be more at that point too. Definitely get full coverage insurance, so make sure you can afford that with a new car payment and gas. If you find you can't afford the Sonata new, well a 2 year old model is a great idea since it still has warranty and is basically the same as the 07/08 model only for alot less money. Hyundai came under new management in 2000 and the quality/performance/looks has dramatically increased since then...otherwise they wouldn't be able to afford to give these long warranties on their cars.

If you are going to buy a Korean car, you need to buy it new, or less than 2 years old, and get the least expensive model..You should be able to buy a low mileage 2005 for under $9,000. Hyundai owns Kia so a Rio or an Accent are about the same.. Just get the basic model with automatic and A/C.. The other inexpensive little Korean car .. GMs Aveo is also not a bad buy for basic transportation if you can get one cheap. All of these small 4 cyl Korean cars must have the timing belt changed at or before 50,000 miles to avoid expensive top end engine damage. My small Korean car gets 25 mpg in city driving and has not given me any trouble yet.. 2005 with..43,000 miles.

Well i say it depends, if you buy new, then i say that's a good thing... warranty!!! build quality!!! and well if any of us did some homework, we'll find that
Hyundai has come up in the automotive world very well... read a Consumer Reports Mag next time your at the local Wal-Mart or any store...
Every car that leaves a Factory can and probably will have some kind of trouble at some time...
Do YOUR Research, homework, and be informed... Hyundai has made a mark and for those of us who take the time to pay attention can come out on top with almost any NEW model they make.
best wishes!

LOOK HYUNDAI VEHICLES HAVE A BAD TRACK RECORD AND IF YOU STILL WANT ONE THEN BUY IT.
IF IT TURNS OUT TO AS STATED THEN YOU WILL HAVE NO ONE TO BLAME BUT YOURSELF.
