you can abuse foreign cars all you want and they just beg for more, lol, my brother bumbed into our hyundai and ther bumber popped in and he said .. HOLD ON they fix them selfs, and the bumber popped right back out lol
there are a lot of great cars in this segment and sonata is one of them. if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck its a duck... if a car is good you have to say its good, and the sonata is one of many great cars
its okay. the brakes could be better. you should be able to loosen the bottom bolt and swing the caliper up but the hose is too short so you have to remove the clamp which is tricky. the leather seats aren't the best. I liked cloth better. the seat heaters are really hot because there is no control. I probably would wait for the 4cyl turbo.
They're actually put together in Alabama, so I guess that would make it an American car by a Korean company from various foreign and domestic subcomponents.
Hello people, why so much hate towards koreans by japanese, or japanese americans. Koreans are nice people. Japan shouldn't be so proud! Just type in "Japanese war crimes" in wikipedia, and you'll know what I'm talking about!
For a vehicle In order to be sold in USA or Canada they must include amber side markers on the side of the headlights,or bumbers that's the LAW in north america,that makes cars more visible to other vehicles on the road.
Hey poor guy, I thought you stopped being stupid, but you are still being bitch. don't you have any job??? you always come to youtube and write bad about Korean, Korean culture, and Korean companies (Hyundai,Kia,Samsung,LG and more) I really can't understand why you do this thing. I know you are Japanese, so please stop being fucking Jap.
there are japanese people on youtube. if you're not japanese, then you're a japanophile right? you sticking up for japanese people, by insulting other cultures, doesn't really help. don't act like japan is pure either. there are a lot of racists in japan. your comments alone are a reflection of their bigotry. understand? oh yeah, if you're gonna claim american, then you can at least say it, instead of saying, "i live in america."
you guys are all piece of craps who says that this product is good or bad, oh yeah?> well you're wrong, this product is better than what you said, but for those of you who says about hyundai is good, you're right. Hyundai ranked as #3 intial quality by JD power few years ago. and they still make good cars. Genesis is on their way, so as equus, portico etc. Sonta is 1 of 3 product from hyundai that got the highest grade of crash test by IHHS dummies. do you hw seriously
Everyone has different opinion about cars. I'm a great lover of hyundai but there's no arguing with people who doesn't think it is. But I honestly think it's not so bright to call hyundai a piece of shit just because it hasn't been out to the market as long as other brands. Hyundai is proving many ways in the market that they're a good one too.
you all crack me up in here. after i test drove ALL cars in this group before buying, the sonata won out. i have had 26000 trouble free miles. so you can keep on hating, im going to keep on LOVING, my money in the bank that is! i'm getting a GENESIS when that comes out! dont know about it? look it up.
hey sonata is korean cars and you guys are so wierd and stupid the american didnt make it the korean did you idots and i have one alright and its really good i got sonata limited. so shut the fuck up.
I got one, I love it. I'd actually take it over my grandma's '02 Lexus ES 300. It's so small on the outside, but it's huge on the inside. I'm 6'6" so that's important.
I bought one, i was really impressed. Anyone who say it's crappy NEVER drove one. Euroblitz, this ain't your old rusty accent that made you a jap wannabe.
i admit, the 07 accord isnt that great. a comparibly equiped sonata le, is $1k less, but... the accord has more safety features, real tires, and doesnt scream "I DONT HAVE MONEY FOR A REAL CAR, SO I GOT THIS SONATA!" as ppl laugh, you remember that your lease payment is actually more than an accord that costs $3k more. because the accord's worth 50% of its msrp after 36 months, the sonata's worth 39%, therefore you have to pay for more depreciation, the lease is actually more. save the headache
you need to do your homework, scooter. the sonata has as many safety features(6 airbags to be exact), is highly crash rated, bigger inside, and my sonata v6 has tires from a small company called MICHELIN. ever heard of them?? i got mine fully loaded, leather and all, for 22,132. honda wanted 28,000+ for the accord. i could care LESS about resale. you dont get much anyway.
I just bought one and love it! I think some people are haters, but I wonder what caused them to watch this video, let alone post a comment. I know the Honda salesman talked alot of crap against Hyundai's but he didn't change my mind, and neither will you anti-Hyundai posters. Go Korea!
I bought a Hyundai Accent, worst crap ever made by man.
I have had 5 samsung, lg mobile phones and all lasted less than 1 year.
Tell me. i hate them now. not bofore but i've noticed it. and won't buy them again, and i'm encouraging everybody not to buy korean products because they're false in their quality.
I had a HyundaiSonata 2007, after 3 months of use, the engine started rattling alot, i went to the dealer and they told me that this was an known issue and maybe there could be a recall for all Sonata engines. After that i sold it and bought a 2007 Camry, 1 months and the car feels like my wife bmw.
hey u stupid jap, is this all you do? go on youtube all day and leaving some shit comments on all korean products? i remember reading the comment u put on a hyundai veracruz review video and on that comment u said u had a ford f350 and a lexus rx330 and now yur saying u have a camry and bmw? wtf get a life go out there get a job or do something other than bein on yur comp all day
You are definitely Right!! I think 'smukai' is metally retarded monkey lmao. he has more than 10jobs lol(construct,Car Dealer, lawyer, Doctor, Car engineer, business man , and a lot more) and he has more than 20cars ( He has all cars from Toyota, Lexus, Honda and many more) I'm sure he is a loser who lives in Japan.
people have to realize that honda and toyota started at the bottom in america. back in the 70's we thought they were pieces of s@#! we would not be caught dead in a japanese car. but now? well.... i'm a sonata owner. only thing after 21000 miles? the passenger window had a light squeak! my ford? too many problems to count!
One of the best cars on the market right now. I would say its equal to if not better than the Japanese Camry and Accord. I've got the LX and its nice. It blew away all competition from the American automakers and was better value compared to the Camry/Accord.
what a retard. the 2.4 liter 4 cylinder accord has 166hp and the 2.4 liter 4 cylinder sonata has 162hp and this guy is saying it has more power than the accord? pffft give me a break!
in 2007 they put a 166 hp engine in the accord but before that it had a 160hp. well the sonata only has 162hp that small difference really does not matter. you get more car for your money plus the Hyundai looks better.
By looks, every car looks good when is new, but as a mechanic i can tell your that Hyundais overall engineering quality is the worst in cars industry, they last some years, but after that be prepared for a nightmare in repairs.
i have a 2006 sonata. as a honda fan, it was the refinement and attention to detail, and the price that made me buy one. i dont know where "original" is comming from, but usa today had an article on reliability. problems per 100 cars. top two? lexus and hyundai! in that order!
why do people waste so much energy talking shit? if you don't like it, buy something else! Why are you guys trying to make yourselves morons to be reckon with?
The Hyundai Sonata was NEVER Consumer Reports' most reliable car--in fact, it got pretty poor reliability ratings until this latest redesign, and even this one just got an average rating.
That is the problem, look at the international database of consumer reports. you may find it. That is the most accurate. You have to go international to get the full ones.
