Hi, I'm looking at some different 2002 Sonatas and can't decide if I shouldfavor the base model (w/ auto trans)or, say, the LX (w/ auto trans). Are the main differences the engine, the leather interior, and the wheels? Regarding the engine, is the 2.7 V6 significantly better (in terms of power and longevity) than the 2.4, 4 cyl.? Does one require more maintenance than the other?

Any advice about purchasing a used Sonata would be appreciated. Are there some things to look for or look out for? Thanks.
