Sante Fai

[Jason Horton]

I was looking at a 2004 Sante Fai. I like the look of it. Is the 2004 the same as the 2003's and farther back? I am not to familiar that is why I ask.

Appearances are the same. The 2004 also has 3 available engines, the 2.4 4cyl, the 2.7v6 and the 3.5v6. The 3.5 wasn't made available until late
2003.

The diferences are very minor other than the new 3.5L engine that is optional. The only outside difference is that the late 04's have tiny antenna located on the center rear of the roof. Previous versions have the antenna embeded into the left rear window. Some people say the reception is poor with the window antenna but I haven't noticed.

Snoop around at www.santafeforum.net for more info.

The window antenna provides the worst reception (gain) I reported this when I got mine in Dec 2003.....guess I was one of the inovators to get the engineers to fix it right.
