Should dash cam have shown evidence of service?

They wouldn't have worked on it in the car park, I'm sure of that. I would take it up with the dealer and have them explain why you car hasn't apparently been driven after being parked in the lot.

Elantra blows black smoke when starting in cold weather

You need to take this problem directly to Hyundai and request the company’s help to fix the problem. It’s possibly an electronic problem that affects the engine when cold, it could be that it’s not getting the fuel enrichment that it needs to start cold. The company is the one that can fix it for you and there’s no reason they can’t.

Sedan with good storage space and suspension?

We test all cars in the real world, on the toughest corners and worst surfaces we can find, and I've been doing the job for nearly 40 years. Hyundai has focussed its suspension work on European-style handling, not a cushy American-style ride, but that's no different from many other brands. For your needs I would probably have steered you to a Nissan Pulsar, but also advised not to buy anything without a proper test drive on road you know.

What's the best small sedan?

From your shortlist, the Mazda3 is the best and gets The Tick from me.
