I just purchased my first Santa Fe. I've had it less than 24 hours and I love it. I drove 2 1/2 hours to Edmund, OK to purchase it. It was all done by email and phone calls. The dealership was Edmond Hyundai. They are great people! Everything that they quoted me was correct. And, they never tried to push anything else on me. So, if you live in Oklahoma and you want to purchase a Hyundai, go to Edmond Hyundai.

Re: Beware Easterns Hyundai - Leesburg VA - SCAM [holtgregm] by chrislegg1

Thanks for the tip about Easterns. I was actually going to call them today for a price quote. I had asked for a quote by e-mail and specifically asked not to be called or sent a message that did not include a price, and they were the only dealership that did not respect this request (they have called twice so far). I was a bit disappointed with some of the other quotes I got, so I thought of calling them despite my initial qualms. These two messages have decided it - I ain't calling them!
 
Btw, Raigan - where did you buy? I am in Falls Church, VA, and would be interested if you bought in area.

Chris -
 
I bought mine at Fairfax Hyundai and got a great price. The service was okay (not stellar, but certainly not bad) and they had a large inventory for what I wanted and were able to beat my Fitzmall price by about $800 bucks. (The details of my price paid are listed on this thread a couple of pages back).
My sales guy told me they still had plenty of '07's and needed to clear them out for the '08's arrival. I would think they would be bending over backwards since they are coming up to the end of the month. Did you get a Fitzmall quote and ask Fairfax if they could beat it to make it worth your while? Nothing like a good dose of competition to help out the consumer
 
If you have any other questions, let me know. This site was truly invaluable when I was deciding on buying my SF and I'm happy to pay it forward.

If I were all you guys or gals, you should start complaining to Hyundai Corporate. If they get enough complaints then they have a harder time taking advantage of people. In the end if they don't improve they will lose thier franchise.

Thanks Raigan. I got a quote from Fairfax Hyundai by e-mail, but the person who gave it must have been incompetent. In the message I sent them I said that I had been to Fitzmall and so I had a price ceiling already, and that I wanted a SF Ltd AWD with premium package. They came back with a decent price, but no mention of premium package. Also, no salesman identified (which I thought was truly bizarre.) I called them Saturday and was told the quote did not include the sunroof, so it ended up being about $1,000 above Fitzmall. I wrote them off, but since you had a good experience, I will give them a second chance. FYI, the best price I have been quoted so far is Alexandria Hyundai, but I want to check how many miles the car has now that I have heard about some of the bait and switches.
 
I agree about this being a terrific site - I think the advice I have gotten here will save me at least $1,000.

Purchased Santa Fe Limited Last Night by hamsfc

Purchased SF Ltd with Premium Pkg, mats, cargo tray and wheel locks. It had one of those phony "protection pkg" uplifts which I told him I don't pay for. Actual MSRP was $27,320. We settled on $24K (plus TTL) including the $1K rebate. Also took the $500 financing incentive. So $2,320 off the MSRP. Thrown in from sticker #2 was Protection Package (anyone know what that is-I'm guessing Turtle Wax), very nice pinstripe, door visors and mud splash guards. I'm assuming that stuff got me to about $2,500 under MSRP. With the finance incentive I left happy paying $23,500 for a very handsome automobile. Color is Natural Khaki (although it doesn't look like any of the khakis in my closet).

That sounds like a really good deal, is that for the AWD model? I think the AWD Limited with Premium is around $29K MSRP..
 
Anyway, I picked up my SF this weekend from Towne in Buffalo for $26,300 OTD, and imported it to Canada without a hitch.
It's the AWD Limited with Premium package, in Silver. I really wanted the Natural Khaki, but they couldn't find one close enough with the premium package.
 
I wanted to ask what others are paying for the extended warranty, and if it's worth it or not. I was offered a price of around $1400, but I've been seeing people in this thread getting it for well under $1000. I couldn't find the link that was posted earlier, does anyone have any contacts to get the warranty for cheaper?

Sounds like you got a great deal? What dealer did you go through?

The price was for a FWD, not an AWD.
I paid $1429 for the extended service and maintenance contract. I drive 25K miles/yr so having bumper-to-bumper for 4 years w/no mileage limit, plus having all my service appointments prepaid made good sense to me. I like the feeling of being finished with my car expenses. I honestly didn't realize the contract was a negotiable item since I was buying it through the business/finance manager.
