Reliable basic transportation. It's a total 'stripper' with pretty much no factory options...no power windows/mirrors/door locks, no air conditioning, no expensive bits that need constant attention, it doesn't even have a tachometer. And it's ridiculously fun to drive, lightweight and nimble (in it's way), only 12 or 13 feet long so any hole in traffic is big enough, and it has a 5-speed stick shift. Hard plastics and cheap feeling materials abound in the interior but it is the rock-bottom model in Hyundai's lineup from 1998. It's cheap as hell to run, parts are cheap, working on it is easy, and it gets 37mpg in the city even when I drive it like it's stolen! Insurance is also pretty easy on the wallet. For what it is, it's a great little car. And as a driver of a highly customized M3, I love that people don't get all bent out of shape when I'm zipping through traffic in this car. I seem to get a pass no matter what I do where I would get honked at and shown everyone's favorite finger for doing the exact same things in my BMW.Nov 10, 2010

Amazing on gas, very strong, very reliable. Wouldn't change a thing about it except for the amount of miles it
has. Jun 18, 2008

I bought this not knowing what it looked like. Asked a friend in jhb to source me a car and flew up to sign for it. Boy was I sorry! Don't try this at home... It was total crap. Been in a horrible accident (about which I was not told of course) and I spent a small fortune maintaining, fixing AND getting rid of it!Mar 20, 2008

A lot of car for the money I paid. Power steering, Electric windows, central locking, 1500cc. Interior suits me down to a tee. I love the feel of the adjustable steering wheel, gotta keep it low u know! Jan 13, 2008
