The ride is fine, and, outside, it looks better than most. But that's all. I don't feel the torque and power delivery. Well, what can you expect from a compact. I need to floor the accelerator to overtake. It sounds fast because of the exhaust sound, but it just crawls.

I thought I was better off if I bought the 1400cc ZX14R or any of the Japanese super bikes, or add a little, the European counterparts.

Wow expecting 0-100 in 2 seconds.

Why, do I need to sugarcoat it? Maybe your Elantra cruises like an F16, but mine is just a Cessna.
I drove compacts before. Civic has grunt; the Altis' power delivery is really linear.

No, let's call a spade a spade, a turtle a turtle.

Just compare the Elantra GLS vs Civic base model. Walang walang yung elanta tapos mas mahal pa sya. While on honda complete talaga specially with its safety features, and big plus sa aftermarket acc, spare parts at resale value.

Partida may bumaba pa tarif rates from korea pero yung presyo ng hyundai vs sa value na makukuha mo lugi ka parin.

Ang greedy na HARI, buset!

Test drive both 2.0 and 1.6 a/t elantra, The1.6 are more quicker, responsive and you will feel the torque in acceleration compare to 2.0 variants which is like you are driving a cvt car.

Why do used 2016 Elantra GL's look too cheap to be true? I'm looking at Carmudi right now and I'm finding a lot under 650k with some as low as 550k for the M/T trim. Sellers look legitimate too.

I'm trying to look for a good 2nd hand sedan for my parents

because it's not a popular car, even when/if new.
