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!
So you're saying the Hyundai is going to be a better used car than the Civic. Excellent!
