i picker her up at about 9 am and the only reason im not in it now, is because of work.
the dealership let me borrow an accent until my elantra was ready to be picked up, man i can't believe the difference between the to. its like 2 different worlds. the one thing that struk me the most was the seat quality. the accent has really hard seats, where as the elantra is soooooooooo cushy. im looking forward to getting a good ass grove going. well i just wanted to share my excitment with every one. oh and one more thing can't get enough of that suger crips. -------------------- A proud member of the club.

Nully, that's great! Trust me it will just get better. I know how you feel. It's like you just got a "poor man's BMW" or something. It's a heck of a lot of car for the money...and wait til you find all those "hidden gems" the car has to offer! don't even get me started on how addicting modding is!
See you around..and..post pics! -------------------- |

Whoa.. Talk about a read! The only two I didn't know about was the headlights and anti-lockout system. Oh and the elastic in the glove box, tho I have to look for that one.. =) The sunroof is auto open for me, but I wish it would auto tilt and slide.. During the day I'll keep the thing tilted (black car), but when I get in, I like to open it all the way. Other things like the lil bins and such I found when I rented the '04 GLS sedan. Great to have storage. The dealer when I first went looking at cars showd me the two-fold rear seats in the hatchback.. I loved it!! Add the purple/blue gauges and hell yeah.. =)
Oh and incase anyone wonders, since nobody seemed to mention it in that thread. When you lock but don't enter so it relocks. It's called Passive Rearming. It's a very nice feature. Tho I sure wish I'd of heard the alarm when they towed me at Denny's that night.. -------------------- "Dusting is a good example of the futility of trying to put things right.

A lot of features there! I am still getting to know my EGT, and sine it has been snowing every other day since I got it a few weeks ago, I have not wanted to stay outside long to take a look around it.
Have they taken some cool stuff off for the 05? I was told that the only options I had of adding were sunroof and ABS, but I don't see Traction Control anywhere, or some of these other things metioned. What up? -Lu -------------------- Lulu's got a 2005 GT Automatic in Black Obsidian. No needless sunroof or ABS!
