Up for auction is a 2004 Hyundai Elantra GT with 5-speed manual transmission. I am the first and only owner and have been using this vehicle for commuting. The car needs some new parts. I just bought the new 2013 Elantra GT and I am letting this car go.


The condition of the vehicle is very clean inside with minor blemishes to the interior plastic and leather upholstery (as shown in the pictures). There is some minor discolorations in the driver seat. There is an ink stain in the seat behind the driver's seat, courtesy of my daughter. There are stains on the carpeted florr mats though nothing too egregious. The car is equipped with a JVC CD / MP3 player with front auxillary input that can be used to connect an iPod/iPhone or the likes. The CD player also accepts a USB flash drive and can play MP3/VMW format files. Comes with the user manual and a remote as shown in the pictures. 

On the outside, the car has a great deal of scratches consistent with the age of the car. I tried to show the most important scratches in the pictures. There is a small depression on the back close to the rear hatch lock. The car has developed some rust at the bottom edge of the right rear stop light two years ago. I stripped the paint down to the bare metal, used a body filler to repair the rusty spots and re-painted the portion of the hatchback door around the plate. You can see that I did not do a perfect job with the body filler. There is a couple of spots showing a little rust here and there that needs fixing. Nothing big. A piece of the plastic covering the grille has broken off. 

Here are the items that need to be fixed / replaced:

1. All four wheels need to be replaced ASAP. There is not teeth left on the wheels. 
2. The flex pipe is leaking exhaust. The flex pipe needs to replaced. The entire flex pipe and the rear catalytic converted assembly is about $150 on eBay.

Issues:
1. The up/down switch for the driver side power window is intermittent. It sometimes take a couple of presses to operate the window. All other power windows/switches are fine.
2. The passenger side map light button does not stay pressed.
3. The cover for the front visor mirror is broken.
4. The rotary fan switch is intermittent at position 4. You need to keep it somewhere in between 3-4 to set the fan speed to 4. 
5. The steering wheel shakes at highway speeds past 65Miles. I am told that this is a balancing issue by a local mechanic. 
6. The part securing the passenger side fog light has rusted off. The fog light is out of its socket. The other fog light is cloudy.

Maintenance:

The car has been maintained well following the maintenance schedule provided with the owner's manual (included). Most of the maintenance is done by the original dealer that I bough the card from. I did some minor maintenance items in later years. 

1. Clutch has been replaced at 88K miles. The clutch is in pretty good shape at this point.
2. The radiator and all hoses has been replaced at 112K miles.
3. The timing belt has been replaced at 55K and 115K. The timing belt in this vehicle needs to be replaced at 60K intervals. So you need to replace the timing belt in 20K miles.
4. The alternator belt has been replaced very recently.
5. Front oxygen sensor has been replaced at 110Kmiles.
6. Brakes were replaced at 100Kmiles.

2014 Hyundai Equus facelift revealed ahead of NY debut

Tue, 12 Mar 2013


Hyundai has dropped a pair of videos detailing the facelifted 2014 Equus ahead of the luxury sedan's official debut at the New York Auto Show later this month. New adaptive LED headlamps are matched with redesigned LED taillamps, along with new 18-inch alloy wheels at all four corners (19s are optional). Buyers will get to enjoy a card-type smart key and a shift-by-wire gear change indoors. More importantly, the vehicle's forward cabin is now dominated by a 9.2-inch screen mounted in the center of the dash.
The old analog gauges have also gone by the wayside in favor of a new TFT LCD display. Mechanically, the 2014 Equus will continue to offer a standard 3.8-liter V6 engine or an optional 5.0-liter V8, depending on the market (the US-spec car is currently only available with the V8). The vehicle can be configured with a total of three driving modes, including Normal, Snow and Sport, which can adjust multiple systems, including the vehicle's electronic dampers. You can check out two computer-generated videos of the four-door below.

Hyundai dumps Genesis Coupe for upscale model

Wed, Aug 3 2016

Hyundai has confirmed that it is killing off the Genesis Coupe after the 2016 model year. A replacement for the coupe is expected to come after 2017, but it will fit into the automaker's luxury sub-brand, Genesis. "In regards to the Genesis Coupe, 2016 will in fact be the last model year for this popular, rear-drive sporty coupe," Christine Henley, Product PR Manager for Hyundai, told Autoblog. The vehicle is being replaced by something that fits better into the new Genesis brand's lineup. "A new, more sophisticated and luxurious coupe appropriate for the new Genesis brand is currently under development." Previous rumors surmised that the coupe will get a 3.3-liter turbocharged engine, an eight-speed automatic transmission, and all-wheel-drive. Inspiration for the upcoming coupe could come from the Hyundai HND-9 Sports Coupe Concept that was revealed a few years ago. Currently, Genesis offers the 2017 G80 midsize sedan and flagship G90 sedan. A luxurious, sporty coupe would fit perfectly in between these two vehicles to compete with more established luxury coupe players, as well as newer competitors like the Lexus RC and upcoming Infiniti Q60.

A Lesson In How To Out-Lexus The LS
I think that the new BMW 4 Series is an attractive coupe. The design is a little bit on the wrong side of "fussy" I'll grant you, and I don't particularly care for the look of the scalloped, black-bordered vents on the fender sides - functional though they may be. But for the most part, I find the coupe to be pretty pleasing to look at.
You all, by and large, do not care for the 4 Series. (For the sake of constructing my intellectual argument, I'm going to make the ridiculous statistical assumption that the 140 or so comments on our 4 Series First Drive provide a representative opinion of our readership as a whole.) In the first 24 hours after we published our review of the car, you felt moved to comment that it was "ugly," "REALLY ugly" and "a disappointment" among other, less reprintable statements of ardor.
