Appearance Matters. It shows you our opinion of you.

It is a rarity to find such a delightful article. Most places write with sarcasm or include other cars into the review. But here is a fully loaded, deliciously tasteful article on the Hyundai Elantra. I know I know there has been lots of praise. But maybe, just maybe this article will send you over the edge and just force you to come in and buy one for you, your spouse, or your almost graduate.

What I like about it: Not only does it praise and praise and praise the Elantra but the article also slams other writers that get a little nit-picky.

"I have read complaints elsewhere that the new Elantra’s cabin materials are less than premium. That strikes me as silly griping — slamming what is excellent in homage to more costly perfection.

This is, after all, the 2011 Hyundai Elantra — an economy car with a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $14,830 for the base GLS, $17,080 for the mid-line GLS PZEV, and $19,980 for the top-of-the-line Limited PZEV. That’s not exactly luxury strata pricing."

(PZEV stands for Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle, I had to look it up too)

Come on people, this is a serious deal. And now, I'll leave you with bits of praise to read.

"The Elantra’s front end is sculpted with the care of a Lamborghini. It has all of the appearance of an exotic, much more expensive automobile. Yet it has none of the persona of cheap jewelry or fake Rolex watches sold on the streets of Seoul in South Korea or Shanghai in China. What is there is real, intended, carefully fitted and exceptionally well-executed.

More delight is found inside, where many car companies often go overboard in their attempt to conceal the humble origins of what is being offered. But in the new Elantra, there is thoughtfulness and harmony. The elegant yet strong and flowing lines of the car’s body also find comfortable residence in its cabin."

COMPARED TO A LAMBORGHINI! Slam, take that, [insert other car maker name here]!

OK OK, come try out your new Lamborghini-esque sculpted Elantra today.
