Okay, I'd seen a few things on it but saw this today, we are looking to buy a 2003 Santa Fe, GLS with the 3.5L and AWD, 33,000 miles on it, for $16680.

Anyways, check this site out.

A Hyundai like you've never seen before.

Introducing the all-new 2007 Santa Fe. Available Summer 2006

Its V6 engine delivers power when you need it. And the more fuel-efficient engine boosts output.

From driver-adaptive transmission to automatic temperature controls, everything about the 2007 Santa Fe is designed to give you more control and make driving easier.

Six standard airbags, Electronic Stability Control and an Anti-lock Braking System give the Santa Fe the most standard safety features in its class.



BTW, you can get it in the 3.3L

I absolutely LOVE it. I saw this too as I was browing through Hyundai stuff this morning. My dad is going to trade in his Chevy Tracker for one this summer. He was going to get a Santa Fe over the winter, but I told him to wait for this one. Good thing he took my advice. tongue.gif

the New Santa Fe looks sick. you can tell that Hyundai seems to be doing a little "branding" so to speak in regards to the headlights. (virtually) the same ones in the NF Sonata

^ 2007 santa fe was designed in Germany, so props to hyundai for building a facility there and hiring them to do it, but wait untill you see what hyundai Korea themselves have designed, the 2007 elantra and accent--both probably the ugliest cars you've ever seen and don't look anything like the sonata or santa fe.

the only reason the 2006 sonata is doing well and the 2007 santa fe will do well is because of their german roots. but when hyundai comes out with the elantra and accent, they will be total crap and will ruin their corporate improvement image to hell.

if the elantra looks like crap (which it does, i've seen spyshots) and the tiburon is its base, i hope the next tiburon won't look anything like it!!

regardless of where the Hyundai was designed at.... All Hyundai design centers are majority Korean designers. The "designed at Hyundai design center Frankfurt" is just for bragging rights.

it's kind of like the Kia Sorento Commercials in the USA, they took shots of Americans designing it from the Clay.. but it was actually designed in Namyang Kia/Hyundai R and D center Namyang.

Funny I saw that design 6 months ago. The new Rav4. lmao.gif

To me, the front end is a rip off on the Audi Q7
The Body is a new RAV4 Ripoff
and the backend side profile belongs on a mini-van (Sedona, Sienna, etc)

They should go with their own unique designs... like the RD1 and J2 Elantra. No one could mistake those for anything other than Hyundai unique designs. Their more modern designs are stealing bits/pices from other cars. It's a good looking vehicle, don't get me wrong, but I'm sick of seeing Hyundai copy other car makers designs/lines.

Powertrain sounds nice, but I not a fan of these "suv's" or whatever you call them.
