Default I'm thinking of going with an 2009 Elantra SE.

Currently I'm driving a 2001 Accent GL and the cars almost 10 years old and I really do want something new.

I love my Accent and show it by driving it as hard as I can, rims, strut bars, etc. all the stuff I've done to it to make it uniquely mine yet I know I'll be trading it in for whatever it's worth when I get a new car.

I haven't had a chance to test drive the Elantra yet but can tell me (maybe if there's Accent to Elantra people here) how well it drives? What are the after market options like atm? I don't think I can drive a stock car for very long.

I've been specifically looking at the SE, but the Touring also looks nice and it has a wider wheel base. D:

Thanks.

I have a 2001 Elantra that I am replacing. I am going with either the Elantra SE, or the Touring. I am looking to buy within the month. I have a friend of mine who has a 2007 Elantra SE, and she loves it. I like both as I stated but my 13 year old son loves the look of the Touring Edition. BTW where in NJ do you live. Thanks

lol, this is freaky. I'm in Howell as well. I've been here for over 20 years. D:

The place I'm thinking of buying it is at Freehold Hyundai if they're willing to deal. I know I want the SE since it has the upgraded suspension and the Stability Control. I'm also partial to the Carbon Grey. TBH I really know what I want, it's just a matter of getting the deal I want and not paying a penny more.

Though I've heard that Lester Glenn has some good deals. Maybe I can get the two places to price deal with me.

I wouldn't deal with Freehold if you paid me. I'd look at the following dealers:
Lester Glenn in Toms River, Maxon in Union, Circle in Shrewsbury, or if you don't mind distance any of the following Turnersville in Turnersville, Colonial outside Trenton, or Springfield in Springfield Pa. If you want email me @ JerseeJerry55@aol.com and I can forward you some information I recieved on internet pricing from each. Thanks JJ55

Jerry, I'd greatly appreciate that. Thanks!

Is Freehold really that bad? The family 2004 Santa Fe was from there, but I guess places change.. or maybe it hasn't. D:
