Hi all,

I was originally going to get a Accent, hence all my posts so far are in the Accent section, but I was test driving them and decided meh, the Elantra is right here I will drive that also, well, from the time I sat in the seat I knew I was getting a Elantra, the seats are far better, comfort wise and material wise then the Accent, and the layout is just more upscale and attractive.

It is smoother and more quiet, but all this should be a given as it does cost more.

What really surprised me is the Elantra being rated HIGHER for mpg then the Accent. so for me, it was a done deal.

I also like the cruise and abs and four wheel disc set up.
And I LOVE the dash lighting, I have had a lot of cars and I think the color scheme on this car is my favorite of all time, the blueish/purple/red is cool.

AND, as a bonus, the new Alpine CD player I have is the same color!

Well, onto the car....

2008 GLS, auto, a/c, power windows/locks/mirror, moonroof/sunroof, elantra matts, mudguards.

It is blue with the light beige interior, I was going to go with grey, but made a last second switch to the beige, just looks more upscale imho. and like it with the blue.

Well, that about covers it.
