Is 2004 Hyundai Sonata V6 too much for first time teenage driver?
I recently bought 2004 Hyundai Sonata for $3000 (with my money that I earned by working at little caesars)
It is my first car and is my first year driving (yes, I did all driver's training and such).
All my friends have small cars like Toyota Corolla, VW Jetta, and Honda Civics.
I'm aware that my car eats much more cars than my friends cars.
Is my car way too much for me to handle?
Should I sell my car and get a different one?
Congrats on the car purchase! Personally, I think you'll be just fine. The power of the car isn't as important as the person driving. If you are responsible and safe, you won't have anything to worry about.
It's perfect for you. Especially if your car eats other cars. That's awesome.
Teenage boys do have trouble with accidents which causes havoc with insurance rates and credit ratings. That said only you know whether you will be tempted to take a foolish risk. If you can be sure you will not then keep what you have.
Provided you drive responsibly (don't do reckless things with the V6 power) and have a large enough income from your part time job to keep the car running, you are all set. Have fun with your first car which will probably be the best car you ever had when you look back 20 years later.
Take it in for a new cam belt and see if you can pay for it.
Are you talking about GAS MILEAGE here! A V6 will eat more gas than a SUPER FOUR BANGER like in the JETTA or TOYOTA cars, but the HYUNDAI engine is pretty reliable! I would get a VW or TOYOTA any day of the week, or a GREAT USED AUDI CAR that will NEVER RUST and gets EXCEPTIONAL mileage!
Since you already own it, just keep it. The extra cost in gas will not be that much if you drive reasonably.
- Which to get 2004 buick regal ls with 121000 miles or 2004 Hyundai sonata lx v6 with 130000 miles? I'm asking for advice from ppl who have own these 2 cars. I needed a car thats going to last a long time and need to be on budget and please don't tell me go to Honda or Toyota or Nissan. I'm interested in one of these cars.
- Is $9,777 too much for first car? My cousin got his first car and it was $11,000 and it was a Honda Civic EX 2006. Thats the same car I want, but the one I found is cheaper.
- Hyundai sonata or honda civic? I don't want a answer based on the appeareance. I want the answer about the quality of the car.especially engine. Hyundai sonata YF vs Honda Civic 2012
- Taking my car into the shop for the first time (my first car and first time at a shop)? Recently acquired a 1999 Honda Accord for $1500 with only 160k. Runs great but my dad checked car and said oil is low and then proceeded to check the rest of the car and said all my fluids need to be replaced. What does that mean and what is the price for fixing this? I want to go to the shop with some sort of understanding of the prices so I know if I'm being ripped off or not.
