yeah, that dealer must have been talking out of his a$$....you've got the 105 hp engine in that. My experience with dealers is that 90% really have absolutely no clue what they're talking about

fast in relationship to what.. a geo, or how about a minivan.. give me a brake.. cars fast stock... camaro SS, mustang cobra, and integra R, cyclone, corvette, supra TT.. these are respectable FAST stock cars... a 15+ second car is NOT fast in ANY book..

hyundai fast stock.. HA

ROTFLMFAO

i agree completely... a great comuter car, UNMODDED.. who knows about quality, i mean if you were gonna just get a car to get you threw the school years or something and were not worried about long term quality i would agree.. i mean they are gettign better but i still think they are complete crap.. think about the aftermarket ehhh.. yeah no good...

reliability is questionable nowadays since they are getting better so the new stuff --might- not be so great. but might be a drastic improvement

I agree. Went to Toyota back in 2000 when I was looking for a new car. Took the Celica GTS for a spin, and asked the salesman in the back seat when the VVTI-L kicks in and he says "what is VVTI-L? This car doesn't have that it's only a DOHC 1.8L"

So I got on the highway and shifted at redline, and he peeps up and says "Oh yeah this car DOES have the VVTI-L system thing". DUMBASS!

Pulled back in the parking lot and threw him the keys and said "You just lost yourself a customer".
