How come did you have to replace all the parts so soon? What caused them to break/malfunction?
Never owned a Hyundai myself, but proly b/c it is a piece of $hit hyundai. They are terrible made cars. The reason they are so cheap is b/c they use cheap, nasty, and thrown together materials. Had friends with Hyundai and the warranty is non-transferable to the next buyer even if they buy it with 1000 miles on it. That too is b/c Hyundai and Kia for that matter, know the original owner is going to shed the piece of crap in less than 2 years, Kia and Hyundai are those cars for ppl with less credit (not bad...less), no money to put down, and someone that can only afford $200 a month. I mean come on ppl, just do not buy the crap and they will not be overcrowding our junk yards. The G is something that you could keep for years....kinda like a mustang (yea not a big fan), actually the skyline is considered the Japanese Mustang. I know I will never get rid of my G35 coupe 6MT, I will be driving it when I am 70 years old. If fuel is still available by then.

aaaaaa, wrong. I had a 01 Hyundai XG300L, second owner and subsequent owners have a five-year/60,000-mile — from the manufacturing date — warranty. Don't get me wrong I would never by another Hyundai but at the time I was 22, had my first "real job" and the car was great. No issues what so ever.... So your comment is kind ignorant there and more importantly FALSE..

I made a huge upgrade! I had a 1991 Lexus LS400. First year that Lexus came to the states it didn't even have an LS400 badge well because...there were only two models out there. Either you wanted an LS400 or like and ES300 or u weren't buying a lexus. It still a beautiful car especially for the age, however with over 120,000 miles and it being over 20 years old, everything was breaking finally. The G35x was an awesome upgrade, more power wil less cylinders, better mpg, the leather was amazing and the best part is, the air conditioner worked! Although if I ever had to downgrade again I would go right back to that lexus.

NO my friend, you get the 60k 5 years from the manufacturing date, not the date you bought it as a second owner. I sold a few used ones from a reputable dealer, any warranty above that is given as a dealer incentive program, do not speak unless spoken too. You calling me ignorant really just made you look like the ignorant one. Obviously you didnt know much about the car you drove. Also, the paint starts fading within the fifth to sixth years.....enough time for the first owner to ditch the POS, and long enough for the second owner not to have a warranty. Why do ppl try to argue with me on these hyundais? They are POS's and nothing about them is even ok....not even the 100k 10 year warranty, you have to jump through flaming hoops to even keep the warranty valid.

I came from a Stage 2 2005 Subaru Legacy GT to a 2006 G35x. I consider it more of a lateral move (slower car, but more luxurious).
