2011 Hyundai Accent vs 2010 Mazda 3?

Chevrolet Cruze is a nice car and i have one and love it.. i considered the mozda 3 speed but it was alot more $ i got the cruze fully loaded for 24k and its awsome and probibly worth the extra cash compared to the accent. even though hyundai has made there cars better, they still are no mach for mazda or chevy... ohh by the way i work at a hyundai dealer! nobody thaqt works here drives a hyundai! only the managers but they have too.. think about it. everybod had nissan, toyota, honda or american made. if you go somewhere and the ppl selling it dont have faith in it! also the residual value (how well it holds its value) is really bad on hyundai. if you plan on keeping the car for a while plan on doing some head work to the motor around 60k miles. and make sure if you go with the accent, to doo all work to it at a hyundai dealer. if not it could void the warranty of the car and ur stuck with a two year old car with 60k miles and a 3000 dollor debt on the car. most ppl lease them because then you get rid of it after 3 years.. but you could probibly find a used 2010 wit 20k miles for around $11000. (that will show you how well a car holds its value) goodluck
