I want to get this 2021 Hyundai Sonata Limited.

What questions should i ask before i pull the trigger? I did my research and decided this is what i want, but i'm not hip on Hyundais like that. The reliability on CR says its 63/100 which was better than most other car brands except Toyota. I'll finance the car putting 3k down and 60 months and i already got a quote from a car insurance place i like.

Idk I've never bought from a dealership but you should at least have a wheel taken off to look at the running gear and smell the dipstick to see if it smells sweet. If it does move on. I know these kias Hyundai and Subaru have thin head gaskets

if ur asking questions like this u need to get a ppi from a mechanic (and not the dealer's), a hundred bucks is gonna hit you for far less than a new engine

and that specific engine has a large ticket cause they're in high demand, turn on the subs and hit play to find out why :mjgrin:

Use the $3k on the taxes and fees, leaving only the cost of the car on the loan.

Stay away from Hyundai and Kia.

Issues with engines seizing due to faulty connecting rod bearings on some engines.

Go Lexus and call it a day.

That's only on the 2.4/2.0T breh; there's an unlimited mileage warranty on those engines because of that.
