Which Should I Buy?

THEORETICALLY SPEAKING IN CONJUNCTION WITH A SELF CONCIOUS THOUGHT I HAVE ARRIVED AT THE REALIZATION THAT AN OLDER MODEL CLK MIGHT NOT BE AS APPEALING AS THE 2003 HYUNDAI XG350.

HERES THE FACTS

CLK-2 YEAR WARRANTY, YEAR=97, 86,000 MILES. $25,900

HYUNDAI-10 YEAR WARRANTY, 2002, SHOWROOM MILES. $21,000!

WHAT A DILLEMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE HELP

How can you compare a Hyundai to a BENZ? The Mercedes is far more superior, so go with the Benz.

I just saw the XG350, nice car, nice warranty, I think you would be better on that car, you seem to be a person worried about cost-efectiveness, viewed from that point a CLK might not be a good choice, any maintenance repair on a MB will be considerable higher than the Hyundai, for example Oil change and brakes.

For $18,500 value, check out this one:

2003 Hyundai Tiburon GT
V6 2dr Coupe (2.7L 6cyl 6M)

My personal choice, after 12 months and 10,000 fun-filled FLAWLESS miles:
The 2002 Acura RSX Type-S


http://www.edmunds.com/reviews/compa...1/page011.html

...and all this fun and quality product for only $23,400!

my mom refuses to drive Huyandis. but if u want to compare these two than u should get the huyandi. Longer warranties etc. They are not bad cars. The quality has improved and the look has 2.

my 2cents.

My Mom prefers Harleys. Good investment! (humor)
