Congrats - you got a great deal on a great vehicle. I only paid $300 less for mine, identically-equipped except without the Touring Package. You did well.

Thanks. I tried Towne and but they ran out of the combination I wanted. Wayne Mazda provided the lowest price ($279 less) but is 60+ miles away, compared to Brad which is 4 miles away only.
 
Kudos to this forum for providing such valuable insight and information.

csi007 - I'm just about ready to purchase a similar SF but at a dealership here in Virgina. Based on your posting, I would like to consider S&S if they are not too far from me, but can't find them on the web. What city are they located in and is that the full name of the dealership? (I know we can't ask for direct contact info on this forum) Thanks much and congrats on your new ride.

Anyone heard anything about what incentives Hyundai will be offering this month? Nothing on their website so far.

We actually went to Towne hyundai. The salesperson was nice and honest. He sticked to 1700 under invoice plus 0% from Hyundai
 
But their used car manager was rude. He kept saying our car was a piece of crap and only offered 2000 under the KBB trade in value. We had to pass the deal.
 
We then went to Nanuet New York and we had a decent trade-in about the same as KKB value
 
If we need to buy another hyundai without trade-in, I would definately consider towne hyundai again.
 
Just my 2 cents

For August the Hyundai site has $1,000 rebate and an additional $500 if you finance with Hyundai ( the big duh)

In the Market for year end Santa Fe by jiminyintx

My husband and I are looking at the 2007 Santa Fe. I have read almost every post under the topic of "Prices Paid and Buying Experience," and have found most of them to be VERY helpful. If my calculations are correct, it looks like the best deals most folks have gotten on the 2007 are about 82-86% of MSRP (including the $1000 rebate offer), but before TT&L. This is also what most of the prices look like at Fitzmall.com. Am I doing my math right? I really would like a framework to go to the dealer with, as I know I may have to be flexible with options at this time of year. I would like to hear from those who have figured savings calculations off of MSRP. I do know that there was/is a Hyundai family member deal of 15% off invoice. Can the rest of us only hope for about 15% off MSRP?
 
Also, I'd like to know if many folks are buying the extended Hyundai warranty, and how much they are paying for the factory backed one? Some of the posts I've read other places seem to infer that Hyundai does not stand behind the warranty if you do not follow the scheduled maintenance to the TEE!
 
Thanks in advance!

I know this isn't what you asked for, but IMO the best way to negotiate on these vehicles is in terms of $$$ discount off of invoice LESS any applicable rebates. The best deals out there right now (such as at Fitzmall) are $1300 under invoice, less $1500 in rebates ($1000 standard rebate and $500 additional rebate if you finance through Hyundai Motor Finance Company).
 
So...let's say that you find the following Santa Fe:
  • 2007 Limited AWD with XM, Premium Package, and carpeted mats

  • M.S.R.P. = $29,860

  • Invoice = $28,036

  •  
    If you're working with a high-volume dealer who is likely to ca$h in on the high-volume incentives from Hyundai, they should be able to sell you the car for $26,736 ($1300 under invoice) LESS rebates. If you take Hyundai's financing in addition to the "regular" $1000 rebate, that would put you at a net purchase price of $25,236 + taxes + license + (possibly) the dealer's standard "per vehicle" marketing fund fee. (Mine was $150, as is Fitzmall's; this fee is not included in the invoice.)
     
    If your dealer is a lower volume one, they're not going to get all of that incentive money so they won't be able to go quite as low. Even so, you should be able to strike a deal that doesn't exceed $500 under invoice LESS all applicable rebates.
     
    I suggest going to Fitzmall's web site, finding a few Santa Fes that are similarly-equipped to what you want to buy, printing the pages with options and pricing, and taking them with you to your dealer. This lets your dealer know that you're an informed buyer and that you know that these cars can indeed be sold for the price you're offering.
     
    Best of luck!

    Thanks mpuzach. I've read some of your postings with a lot of helpful advice. The numbers you are quoting me fall in line with my figuring from the MSRP..... $25,236 is 84.5% of the MSRP of $29,860. Add the $150 marketing fee, and it takes it to an even 85%. I'm guessing that may be the best I'll be able to shoot for if I limit myself to our local San Antonio area. Not so sure these are high volume dealers. But they do have some good stock, and hopefully they are ready to move it before the 2008's come in. We also qualify for the $500 military rebate, so every dollar helps!
     
    I'll be sure to post when we make a deal! Thanks for your help.
