The only other common problem is front strut replacements on the '94 and one of the 2006 Elantras.
I'm with tjts on this. Lower resale value means better bargains for those of us who buy our cars used and keep them until they drop.
Bottom line: If my family needed another car tomorrow, I'd start looking for a Hyundai. I'll look at Kias, too. However I'm not convinced Kias will hold up as well as Hyundais

What kind of MPG's were you averaging out of your Hyundai's?
You can always buy any used 88-2000 Honda or Toyota, drop in a 30-60k imported engine and drive it for another 200k.
