My $26400. out the door price for '10 Santa Fe GL V6 FWD looks very compelling next to this 33K Sportage.
Unless you really dig leather, panoramic roof, power seats and the like, if I were to get one of these, I wouldn't go past a mid level trim. It's a small car after all.
Or wait a year or two for significant incentives.
The bubbly shape of the rear hatch bugs me with the lack of a proper rear bumper, a rear end collision could be costly.
