Many things come standard with the SE model - vehicle stability control, satellite radio, 6 airbags, cruise control (I could go on and on). Compared with other cars in its class, it has the most standard features for the best price.
Sportier and more visually pleasing than comparable cars. Smooth design and two-color molding blend together nicely. Blue backlighting for the controls makes this car unique.
When I made this purchase, I was originally planning to buy a 2009 Toyota Corolla. However, Toyota discontinued their navy blue color for 2009. The fact that the Elantra was available in blue sealed the deal for me personally.
Steering wheel-mounted audio controls and cruise control standard on the SE model. Climate controls are well-placed and easy to use.
When I purchased this car, I received $2000 cash back during their "Dollars and Sense" promotion. But even without the factory incentive, the Elantra is simply more car for less cash when compared to similar vehicles.
