| Price of the Hyundai Elantra: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Paid sticker price less $2,000 rebate. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Cash 4 clunkers got me to look. Consumer Reports rated #1. 1st looked @ Civic,Corola. Had better head room w/sunroof, best warranty, best price, Best brakes, towing capacity, interior room. I NEVER thought Elantra, EVER, Now I take it out, "just 4 a ride" |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Best small car for the money right now. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Same price can only get me a average or less than average featured Civic or Corolla. Toyota and Honda both refused to provided payment plan due to not enough history, Hyundai just picked me up right away. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
The Elantra is about $4000-$6000 less than a comparable vehicle from Japanese car makers. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The Hyundai cost less money out-the-door than a Civic without air-conditioning or a corolla without anti-lock brakes. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
See above. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Price was about $17k. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
2008 Elantra SE seemed to offer a lot of value for money; with the features I now have, I would have paid a lot more money with a Civic, Corolla or some other option. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I got a no haggle price. I just called the dealership, told the salesperson my price, and the cash deal(at my price) was complete in about 3 hours of my phone call. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
very cheap for what you get |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
A lot of bang for the buck! |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Rebate allowed this car to be had, including extended warrantyu if desired, for about $1000 less than most comparable Totyate Corolla LE. Honda was no where near close ($3000 more). |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Good price/value |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
great value compared to other vehicles. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I was able to get a good interest rate and what seemed like a good final price from the dealer. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
$4000-5000 less than any US or Japanese of equal options and size. |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The price was reasonable and the interest rate was good for the time. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Considering all the features that came with the car, plus the cost of operating, and insuring the car, the Elantra is an economical car. |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Great price at the time for the size of vehicle |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Is/was a bargain price, great value |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The price was great considering the options. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 135-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Best bang for the buck! Car comes fully loaded at a reasonable price |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 135-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Brand new it costs less than some competitors used prices. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 135-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
were affordable for the amount of car you were getting. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 135-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
it was cheaper then a civic |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 135-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
cost was less than I expected |
| 2002 | 4dr Hatch 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Used Elantras are quite cheap. Any car of the same year/size/class with the same features/options would cost significantly more. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Toyota RAV4
| Price of the Toyota RAV4: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
good lease rates due to high resale value |
| Price of the Toyota RAV4: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 179-horsepower 2.5L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Price was high, dealer did not offer much of a discount or was willing to work with me on my trade-in |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
A base RAV4 is quite inexpensive. Fully optioned, the price can balloon by a third. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
No incentives |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
V6 more. Not a fair comparison. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
A bit more than the crv, didnt want to wait 3 monthes for a custom built one from toyo corp since brother works there. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Too pricey compared to a Honda. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Almost $5000 more than a comparably equipped Santa Fe. Depreciation will be better, but I tend to keep cars long term so upfront pricing matters to me. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Significantly higher price than comparable vehicles. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
The vehicle is somewhat expensive, but the value is high because it offers alot for that money. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Little more expensive than some competitors and no great financing rates either. I guess since the car is popular they know people will pay the extra. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I have always thought that cars are way more expensive than they need to be. Toyota tends to be more expensive that most. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
The RAV4 was a bit more expensive than comparable cars. |
