If you have no passion what so ever for driving, then the Sonata is a very good car. Its cheap, its simple, and its reliable.
Its also as boring as the Camry.

If you are passionate abour driving, even a little bit, then either buy an old Honda, spend more on one, or save longer. They really are a much, much better car, and are far more enjoyable to drive than the Camry.

Beware pre-Renault Nissan's.
Nissan start losing money at the end of the 80s, and was in so much trouble by the end of the 90s Renault were able to take a controlling share.
As a result of the trouble they go into Nissan cut all sorts of corners where every they could. Anything pre-Renault is a bit of a crap shoot as to how reliable it will be, and how well built it will be.
Post Renault they of course made some good cars, like the new Skyline/G35 and the 350Z. They also carried over some bad designs, like the Primerra and the Maxima (altima etc).
As these floor pans are getting out dated and replaced by Renault financed replacements, they should start to find their place again.
