 Detailed review:
I previously owned a 2002 Elantra GLS and traded it in for a 2005 Elantra GT 5dr. I was already happy with my GLS but wanted a new car again. I put 57,000 miles on the GLS without any problems, so I decided to get another Elantra. I'm glad I got a GT this time. The suspension is a whole lot sportier, the CD player sounds good and the leather is nice also. The cargo space on the 5dr is so much better than on the sedan. I've owned or own a Honda Civic, Toyota Rav4, Toyota Tercel, Mitsubishi Eclipse and a Mazda MPV. The Hyundai Elantra is as good or better than those vehicles. I'm sticking with Hyundai.
