"Very nice ride for the $. Went into the dealer with what the price should be from cars.com and my deal was done in minutes. Kudos to the dealer (Tonkin Hyundai) for making this a no hassle deal. I am selling my 2009 Sonata that has 111k on it. I had zero issues with the old car and that is why we bought a new Sonata. 35 mpg on my first trip in the new car so am very please with that."

"For a full size car the Hyundai Sonata Limited is the most luxuriest for the money! The exterior is classy and sporty at the same time and gets great looks as you pass people by. The interior has everything you need that a luxury Lexus, Mercedes, etc. have for a much lower price. I needed a navagation system, heated seats everywhere, 1 sun roof ( and got 2!), leather seats, back up camera, XM, Bluetooth, hands free phone system, garage remote, and comfort for my job. I drive clients around for my job and go to all sorts of new and different places each week. To top it all off Sonata Limited even gets great gas mileage!! You can't go wrong with this car."

"Bought a brand new 2013 Sonata. The second day I owned it the transmission went out and they had to replace the entire transmission. Only getting 18 mpg in town and 22 hwy. The engine idles rough and is very noisy. Sounds like valve train noise. I had it back to the dealer several times and they cannot find anything wrong. Very disappointed. I will never buy another Hyundai."

"Great car overall. The 2013 model replaces a 2011 model that was destroyed in a T-bone collision with a driver who ran a stop sign without even slowing down. The side air bags saved my grandchildren's lives. After comparing it to others in its class, I went with a 2013 Hyundai because of its safety features, comfort, reliability, and dealer support."

"I always like the looks of this car. I rented this car on a couple of occasions and was surprised on the quality and looks of the car. I finally broke down and traded my gas guzzeling SUV for this car. I got a great deal and love all the features of my Sonata Limited. The moon roof is awesome and all the features you get work well such as the blue tooth, back up camera, navigation system. Its a nice solid vehicle and looks really nice. I get a lot of compliments. Never thought I would buy a Hyundai but so far I am a believer."

"Car handles well. Has a remote starter which comes in handy on those cold northeast mornings. The one thing that bothers me is the dashboard above the steering wheel. and the speedometer. That part has what looks like a U shaped cover over it and during the day the reflection of it shows up on the windshield so you look like you are looking through a U shaped target. Not too bad at night. Kind of gotten used to it already but it can be annoying sometimes. Other than that I have no complaints about the car yet!"

"I recently traded in a 2009 Sonata GLS that was a great car. Purchased it used w/25K miles on it. Aside from needing brakes earlier than I expected, it was extremely reliable. So we decided to trade it in for a new 2013 sonata. In 35 years of car buying, this car has been one of my biggest disappointments. Having only driven it for a month, I can't speak to longer range reliability, but I can report extremely poor gas mileage. My last sonata got approx. 23 mpg in city driving. This one, with the Eco button activated, gets between 17-19 mpg city. Strangely, with the Eco button deactivated, the mileage goes up a bit. I have never gotten up to 20 mpg yet. I returned car to dealership, and I was told to only buy BP gas--that other customers had reported that this helped. I have only been using name brand gas, including BP. Otherwise the car is extremely comfortable and it drives reasonably well. The control panel is very 'busy' it's difficult to locate the gas gauge, for example. I also dislike the temp control--there's an odd human-like figure that shows where the blowers are aimed (feet, upper body) that I don't care for. It's merely a button that you press to cycle through the directional options. The figure has a head that looks like a button, but isn't. It works, but it's just a little odd looking. All in all, I'd be perfectly satisfied with this car if not for the horrible gas mileage."

"Our 2013 Sonata has all the features you need. And at this point --3weeks -- it's a good car for the price. The negatives- it is a bit noises and the ride is not as sound when compared to our '04 Buick LaSaber"
