I have heard (and read) good things about the Toyota. I went to the dealer expecting the van to feel cramped, overpriced and dealer unwilling to negotiate. The last time I looked at Toyota (20 years ago) a dealer asked how much over retail I would pay. see full Toyota Sienna review |

The 10 year/ 100,000 miles warranty is un-beatable. I spoke to couple friends & co-workers who owns KIA or Hyundai, they all said the warranty is great, but they never needed it anyway. A reliable car with great warranty, no other auto makers can match. see full Hyundai Elantra review |

Hyundai has gone from bottom of the bucket to top tier automobile in--my opinion--less than 10 years. To me, this fact alone speaks volumes about the company itself. The Elantra is a fantastic competitor to the Civics, Sentras and Corollas out there. see full Hyundai Elantra review |

I always thought of Hyundais as unreliable cars. The only reason I took a chance on this car was because of the warranty. see full Hyundai Elantra review |

Horrible trade in value. I was actually told by a dealer that they did not want my car!! It was a year old, excellent condition with 30k miles. They said resale is horrible for hyundai. see full Hyundai Elantra review |
