Symmetry not included. Looks neat as long as you don't open the doors.

The new 2011 elantra? wow the dealers in my area don't even have them yet. They look nice. But I kinda want a juke, i know it looks a little funky but from the sound of things it's a performer.

not sure what year the one i rented but it wasn't a 2011. honestly it was pretty terrible at expressway speed. i thought the car was going to either get blown off the road or it would fall apart piece by piece.

ive seen 2 jukes in my area and they do look werd but cool in a way. it's hard to explain. it's a cool werd (MINI) not a donkey werd (kia soul) look.

Test drove the new elantra. Nice looking car but very dull. It gets 40mpg on the highway. With gas going up this may be a good purchase but it's a sedan. Would like a little more versatility. When are they going to make pick up trucks more fuel efficient. Best truck mpg is 20mpg on the highway and that's probably doing the speed limit and driving like miss daisy. Bummer.....

yeah. actually, your choice for a dd is more important than for your weekend sports car because it's the car that you will spend most of your time driving. if you made a bad choice, you will be stuck.
