With the same money, you can buy a relatively low mileage 2020 Corolla with manual transmission which can last much longer than that Hyundai. 

The price is way over what I'd pay. IMO, seems to me like a terrible deal...

Unlike most Hyundais that are full of bells and whistles, the accent is just the opposite, cheap and generally simple. The 1.6L engines tend to last for quite a while depending on maintenance and careful driving, and you pretty much can't go wrong with a manual (the CVT "iVT" on these is a nightmare). BUT, it's quite definitely is going to be less reliable than a Corolla sedan.

You're pretty much paying MSRP for a 2 year old vehicle with quite a few miles that might be already out of warranty because so many Hyundai warranties in the US aren't transferable.

If it would've been 1/2 the price, I'd have the controversial opinion that maybe it might be alright.

But it's not at only $4k cheaper than a brand new Corolla? it's just not worth it.

The way that Hyundai is probably going to deprecate to nothing as soon as the chip/supply shortage ends (it's a Hyundai, it has a manual, and it's not a crossover so I don't see it holding it's value well), to me it looks like you're going to loose a fortune on depreciation and get stuck with a mediocre car you don't even have warranty on...

As someone who generally doesn't hold a grudge against Hyundai, I've been quite satisfied with the Hyundai-Kias I've owned (but that being said I don't tend to hold my cars for over 120k-130k miles and that's when econoboxes tend to begin to fall apart), For that price, I'd avoid it. it's just not cheap enough to get it over a Toyota with a launch gear CVT as long as you can find one that isn't over 5 years old or with over 60k miles (sadly with these CVT transmissions and a lot of owners neglecting to maintain them, I'd say getting one with higher millage is a risk, unless there's documented proof that the CVT oil has been replaced at least every 50k, IMO it should be done even every 25k)
