I'm considering buying a 2012 Sonata. I put >225,000 miles on my last 4 new cars (all Pontiac Grand Orix's), and I'm wondering if I can get the same out of the Sonata.

So, how many miles are on yours?

I have the regular se model..not the turbo.
Also it took him nearly 10 yrs to get to his mileage, where as it only been 3 yrs for mine so far. I think drivetrain wise it will make it just fine, just figure some of the electronics may start giving me some problems once im over the 200k mark. I changed over to mobile 1 full synthetic at 75k miles and change it every 5k miles. Also had the tranny flushed and filled at the 100k mark.

Bought off the truck (literally) in May of 2010. 81K as of this morning.

Need new spark plugs but otherwise its as fast and fun as the day I bought it.

Want to pay it off and get another Hyundai (Azera or Gen Coupe) in the future.

131,000
2011 Limited Turbo
Replaced tires at 90K
Replaced front brakes and rotors at 110K
Oil change every 6-7K miles
Original back brakes - pads and rotors, no sign of changing them anytime soon
Averaging 30-33 miles per gallon
Was told that may battery might need replacing soon

I put in a k&n air filter when I bought it new.
Xenon headlights and fog lights (both 6000k) from Xenon Supply
Plasti Dip the chrome on the grill, bottom rocker panel and and the side view mirrors.

Got to say I am happy with the car.

2012 GLS brand new in October 11 ' I'm up to 66k in 26 months not to many complaints at all just replaced front pads and rotors with slotted and cross drilled ones
,i figure the fast replacement was due to my 19" Wheels ,just switched back to my 16" for winter.... wow the car is a sloppy mess again handling wise lol

Good luck with those. I put slotted/drilled rotors on my Tundra and they were awful. I took them off and threw them in the trash. They looked cool, but it was a costly lesson learned.
