Dont see very many in that good condition. It just needs to be dropped and it would look great.

I still need to find my wagon to do the RD2 front swap and modded veilside kit.
Nothing like a beta powered dragin' wagon.

I think it looks OK. Nothing spectacular.
I just LOVE that beautiful smooth design. Those year Elantras are so easy to drive, great visibility, maneuverability, versatility...etc. The whole design is awesome, and far ahead of its time.

Paint the grille black, remove the faggy wiper attachments, and maybe spruce for a classier set of wheels. But other than that, clean clean clean. It's nice.
If you call understeer, neutered steering, bodyroll, and a harsh plastic interior ahead of their time...
It's not a particularly bad car, but it's not a car to get moist over either.
great maneuverability, that design was far ahead of its time

I liked it because it was small and had a long nose so it was very, very easy to get a good feel of the car. Now they make cars with shorter front ends with which you have to really use careful judgment and you can't see the parameters of the hood diminishing visibility.
Yeah it could have been better by having added the balls but you got an excellent machine for the money. I mean you can get a good car for dirt cheap. My dad bought his for $9,000 brand new 10yr/100k with A/C from the dealer and it came with Cruise Control. You can get them now for like $500.00 - $1,000.00.

Vehicle: 1997 hyundai coupe
the car has Philippine 2005 plates 
i'm hoping that the car is still in mint condition after 8 years. I have to admit that it's a rarity to see clean elantras here.
so, the car also has those faggy wiper attachments haha! my tib has them and have also received flack for it lol now i know that it isn't aftermarket.. i got the tib with the wiper attachments already installed
