Summary: I did a month's worth of research, open to all types of cars (American/Asian/European, Sedan/Coupe/SUV) and I ended up purchasing the 2011 Hyundai Sonata SE. I guarantee you will not find more value in a car for the price. The new exterior makes heads turn. But it's the interior that puts the Sonata ahead of the crowd. The beautifully crafted and perfectly engineered touch screen system that ties everything together is a pleasure to use. I can browse/search my entire phonebook or if I'm driving, I can use the voice command to call one of my friends. The navigation system works seamlessly even when I am listening to the radio or on the phone with a client. The cabin is extremely spacious and the seats are comfortable. I could go on and on, but I can tell you in just weeks, you'll see this car everywhere on the streets.
