Are Hyundais good for tall drivers with big feet? E.g. are the pedals far enough apart and big enough for big feet? And will the seat go back far enough for long legs to not be forced into a sharp knee angle?

I'm tall with big feet. Getting in my 2002 SantaFe (old design) is a little bit of a squeeze but fairly comfortable (steering wheel tilt only). (it is a small SUV after all - now replaced by Tuscan - the new SantaFe is bigger). My 2007 VeraCruz has LOADS of space and VERY comfortable (steering wheel in/out and tilt).
Never had a problem with any of their pedal sizes - I've driven a few as loaner cars including old model Sonata (very impressed). Note: Gas pedal was always controllable....
I purchased a 2008 SantaFe and a 2008 Sonata for our family. We have no regrets about either vehicle and would make the same purchase over again. The kids (over 21) borrow the cars whenever they can.

Purchased a new Elantra Touring in Dec (needed a new car and got to take advantage of the sales tax credit). Out of the blue, got a $50 prepaid MC from Hyundai in the mail yesterday to thank me for my new purchase. Perhaps a customer loyalty campaign spurred by the problems with Toyota?
contemplating a 2010 Sonata GLS leftover, MSRP 21,280 on sale for 16,530. i really like the styling of the 2011 model, but doubt they will deal on them (brnad new model) and plenty of 2010 leftovers still need to get moved out first.

And considering the price, a great combination of comfort, roominess, and good handling characteristics. It's even fun to drive. Can't put into words, but it has a different feel to it. Everything about it feels different than American or Japanese cars. I think it's the best family type car in its actual real world price range.

Hyundai : Hope You Understand Nothing Drivable And Inexpensive
I think Hyundai is showing a lot of promise and a great value for the money. I think the Sonatas are nice. But why is the 2011 Sonata on the market in Feb/March 2010? That's crazy. You can offer the 2011 in August or September of the previous year, but March? 2011 doesn't start for another 9 months. It's a 2011 model car that was built in 2009.
Anyone know about this? A local guy who usually sells used trucks has a 2010 Sonata with 1000mi on it and has it listed for $21,500 on the windshield but on craigslist he has it for $15,500. I own a newer Sonata but was wondering what kind of warranty will I get if I buy the 2010? 6yrs 60000 or 10 100000 or nothing. I cant understand were some gets a 2010 with a 1000mi on it and not be a Sonata dealer?
The story goes a little like this... years ago the Pres of Toyota was overheard making a comment that "anyone can make heavy machinery" (as Hyundai is big in this market) but Hyundai could never make an auto with thousands of parts that must work together. The dude at Hyundai was furious and "jumped into" the car market. True? I dunno but 15 years later, they have gone from a disposable car to one of the top auto companies in the world. I bought my 2008 Sonata about 1 year ago and can tell you the car impresses me more every time I drive it. For those of you that are not believers, keep overpaying for your Camry's and Accords while I enjoy my 5/60 Bumper to Bumper coverage and AVG 29MPG. Copycat looks? Are you serious? Look at ANY of these brands. They ALL resemble one another.

Second and/or subsequent owners have powertrain components coverage under the 5-Year / 60,000-Mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty. The original owner (only) gets the 10 year / 100,000 mile powertrain warranty. http://www.hyundaiusa.com/warranty.aspx

Agreed! Seriously, I don't understand the whole copycat argument. These are cars people..No company is going to risk and put out something totally different..especially not a car that competes in the popular mid-size family sedan market. What do you want them to do? Come out with this?

Hyundai is really producing some great vehicles, I think the Tucson and Sonata are both home runs, saw them both at the auto show. They look nice, are priced right and have great features. I think they're like Toyota and Honda were about 15 years ago, just selling more this year then next, year after year.
Saw the new 2011 Sonata in the parking lot where I work, not knowing much about it, but it got my attention and the styling is very nice. Hyundai has come a long way in the last few years.

In 2001, Hyundai began making solid cars that could compete with just about any other brand in reliability. Over the past 10 years they have been improving. From what I saw at the autoshow, the 2011 cars will take Hyundai to the next level. (style and luxory)

The original owner (only) gets the 10 year / 100,000 mile powertrain warranty. http://www.hyundaiusa.com/warranty.aspx Strange. That page says: On 1999 - 2003 model years, coverage applies to original owner and immediate family members (i.e., wife, husband, daughter, son, stepdaughter, stepson).
The 10/100,000 warranty on my 2001 is fully transferable to anyone I sell it to (though it wont mean much since the 10 years will be up soon. I believe mine was an upgraded warranty for bumper to bumper which isnt listed on that page)

That's b/c the Elantra Touring is totally different from the US/Korean Elantra since it is the European i30 (the wagon/estate version) and thus, has more European characteristics.
The i30 is based off of the Kia Cee'd - which has won numerous awards in Europe.

It's a fairly common practice in the auto industry when introducing a next-gen or entirely new model.
