Considering Making the Switch

Hi all...new member. Glad to find this site. Been a long time Honda owner and ready to make a switch into something bigger.

I really like what the Sonata has to offer. I can't believe for around 24K you can get a loaded V6 with leather and I really like the look and styling of the Sonata.

I am going to test drive one tomorrow. Has anyone else here made the switch and has been very pleased?

Hi, I have owned my loaded LX for almost a week. It looks great and I just love the car so far. I almost bought a Passat but glad I bought the Sonata.

Good luck,

TOny

Sloshing noise when the tank is full of gas. Also, I get a droning and rattle rumble noise from the passenger rear side. Someone said that on a 60 Minutes program a few weeks ago another car maker had the same rear end noise problem, and it was found that they failed to put a bushing between the gas tank and body of the car and/or the bushing was defective or the wrong one - have to get the news on the program findings because I did not see it. I'm ready to lemon this car to a lemon lawyer, but it's a shame, otherwise, it's a nice car. Edmunds recommends it.

Hi Mark P,

You won't be disappointed in the new Hyundai. Just think TIMING CHAIN and smile! No need to pay for those expensive belt replacements. Great ride!

Had a Honda Civic and an Acura Integra and made the upgrade to the 06 sonata lx a month ago. couldn't be happier.

just make sure you can reach the stereo. i sit slouched w/ the seat leaned back and have trouble reaching the preset buttons.

The volume controls are on the steering wheel in the Azera. I like the CD player best. Love the whole car! Still trying to husband-proof this car. Will have to feminize it somehow.

You can get the Azera Limited for 24 if you talk to the dealer and tell them you want it for $500 over invoice. They will deal. After you make the deal, then show them your trade-in. You can make a great deal and have a super car. We couldn't quite afford the high dollar Azera that was sticker of 30, but the Limited has lots of standard equipment and it is so much fun to drive! Getting on the interstate never was easier. You barely touch the accelerator, and this baby moves! Handling and stability are wonderful, horsepower is fabulous! Pleasure to drive, love the heated seats and rear window shade that were STANDARD EQUIPMENT [hear me Toyota dealers????]. You even get floor mats included in the cost. I couldn't believe it when the Toyota dealer was actually charging extra for white paint and floor mats. Hyundai is a great buy. The warranties are the icing on the cake.
