As good as the 2006 Honda Accord?

Date of Review:  Aug 27, 2005
The Bottom Line: A great family sedan for a great price..
Review: The 2006 Sonata represents the first release of an entirely new fleet of Hyundai sedans. An all-new Accent, Elantra, and a brand new addition to the Hyundai line titled "Azera" will all join the Sonata later this fall. The 2006 Sonata has changed...

A+

Date of Review:  Dec 20, 2005
Review: I was leary about the nameplate but with 3k miles I am happy so far except that my ashtray does not work and it seems to be a known problem but Hyundai Corporate has refused to step up and help me resolve the issue.

A great value

Date of Review:  Sep 18, 2006
The Bottom Line: do not hesitate.
Review: Just bought an 06 Hyundai Sonata (4 cylinder) for my wife to replace her 04 Mustang Convertible and in preparation for our first child. Initially went to look at the Tucson, but quickly found out that the Sonata had the best combination of features...

Why pay more for the same car?

Date of Review:  Oct 28, 2008
The Bottom Line: Compares very favorably to the Accord and Camry at a much better price and with a better warranty.
Review: Hyundai has been slowly shedding its "cheap" label that followed it around for years. Starting with the 2006 class of cars, Hyundai has become a legit car manufacturer that can keep up with the likes of the Honda's and Toyota's for a fraction of the...

Is the second time around better??

Date of Review:  Aug 25, 2006
The Bottom Line: Would I buy another?? Maybe....who can beat the price or the warranty?
Review: I recently purchased my second Hyundai Sonata. I bought one in 2000 and drove it right up until 2 months ago. I had such luck with that one, I figured "why not?". Well, the odd thing is, I miss my 2000. Not that there is anything wrong with my 2006,...

Almost Two years, still the Best

Date of Review:  May 18, 2008
The Bottom Line: I recommend this car for people who want a V6 at 4cylinder price, Long warranty and all the standard equipment at no extra charge.
Review: I bought The Hyundai Sonata GLS V6 with Sport premium package in September of 2006. I have had this car for nearly two years it has been the most reliable Hyundai i have owned so far, my previous 1998 Sonata was good until it got 100,000 miles after...

Wasn't Planning on Buying an 06

Date of Review:  Jul 24, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you are looking for a surprisingly affordable vehicle with many standard and safety features, this deserves a test drive.
Review: Introduction
It was time for my aging 2002 Cadillac Deville to be replaced and after test driving a 2005 PT Cruiser, a 2005 Saturn ION and a 2005 6 cylinder Hyundai Sonata, I had decided upon the Sonata. We were at a break in the paper signing...

JUNK

Date of Review:  Jan 27, 2008
Review: Taken in 6 times for air bags, twice for drivers side power window, & once for abs and brake light. Every time I took it in they had an excuse why they would not fix it the first time. I have traded the car in and lost my shirt but happy to get rid...

A Competitor in a Crowded Field

Date of Review:  Nov 3, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you are looking for a comfortable car, the Sonata will offer that with room to spare.
Review: I will admit that I am biased, as my family proudly owns two Hyundais.(Santa Fe and Elantra) We have had no problems with them, and we have convinced others to how great they are. I work in the car business, and many of my customers gush about how...

Hyundai Gets it This Time Around - *New Long Term Update*

Date of Review:  Jan 23, 2006
The Bottom Line: This is one serious contender in the mid-size family car space - don't buy Honda or Toyota without a test drive!
Review: General
The brand new Hyundai Sonata was redesigned and released as a 2006 model this past summer/fall. Hyundai are building on a history of giving more for less, while making quantum leaps forward in reliability and quality over the past 5...
