The problem is that when you go to resell the Hyundai, it won't be worth as much as an equivalent Civic would.

Edmunds.com's "True Cost To Own" shows the 2011 Elantra Limited's ($20,195 MSRP) 5 year depreciation to be $12,470. In comparison, a 2011 Civic EX Sedan's ($20,405 MSRP) 5 year depreciation is $9,632. $2800 buys a lot of gas...especially if you are an ecomodder!
