Replying to: miffed (Jan 23, 2009 7:52 pm) Hyundai now has a strong certified program. So if you buy from a certified dealer they replace the 10/100 that you would otherwise lose. But you have to buy from a Hyundai Certified dealer. |

A reporter is looking to talk with consumer who bought a Hyundai in January and was "assured" by the Hyundai Assurance program. Please send your email address and phone number to jfallon edmunds.com today, February 4, 2008, if you fit the bill.

Hello, After getting stuck 2 or 3 times, I have decided to upgrade my FWD CRV with an AWD car. I think Santa Fe may be a great option, so I decided to check the prices for SE AWD model. I have 4 dealers in my area (Birmingham AL, actually, Hyundai Montgomery plant is only 2 hrs from us), and here are some strange things I hear from all of them. 1. "SE AWD is very hard to get. All AWD models go to NE region, WA and so on. It will take a long time for us to locate one for you", "we only have FWD models". 2. All of them have quoted me THE SAME price, which is MSRP, like Saturn dealers did before. One actually said "EVERYBODY knows, that invoice starts at $25600, so price $22,577 is just impossible" after I told him that Edmunds says "What Others Are Paying: $24,500 + destination charge $750 - regional adjustment $173 = $25,077, minus rebate -$2,500 = $22,577" Don't understand me wrong, I'm not biased towards Hyundai, but I didn't expect that they don't even consider Edmunds and charge about the same as Toyota for their Highlander AWD (60 months 0% APR btw). I know Santa Fe is a good car, but do people really pay MSRP these days? Is it really hard for a dealer to get AWD, or they are just playing? Is $22,577 + ttl for SE AWD is an impossible price? Thank you |

The AWD models get sent to Oregon and other places where AWD models sell better. My store has had quite a few customers wanting an AWD that we just simply couldn’t get our hands on. And we don’t have the option of calling the plant and getting one sent to us. It just doesn’t work that way. The Santa Fe has $1000 AND 1.9% on a GLS/SE model and $1750 AND 1.9% (60 months) currently. But you to give up the $2500 rebate to get that (you’re better off taking the low APR). I did some snooping this morning on the locator and the closest AWD to Alabama is Arkansas. And it’s not a package 1, it’s a Popular Equipment package (+/- $600 option). Actually, every GLS AWD in the country (254 total) is a Popular Equipment package. That puts MSRP at about $26K give or take.

Replying to: cmcjenkin (Feb 10, 2009 6:42 am) "Hyundai's production plant in Montgomery, Alabama, will have 11 days cut off from its remaining schedule for 2008. Due to decreasing demand of the Santa Fe crossover SUV and the Sonata passenger car, the Alabama plant will switch to a four-day work week, beginning this Friday" - and I need to go to Arkansas from AL to get AWD Santa Fe!!! I hate to go with Toyota, but Hyundai gives me no choice - it is not Ferrari or Lamborgini to pay MSRP. Toyota dealers keep emailing me about going under invoice for RAV4 and Highlander, and Hyundai dealers want MSRP or just can't deliver me what I want. OMG, OMG |

Replying to: newcrvman (Feb 10, 2009 12:59 pm) Guys, what do you think about that price? It is without special financing - still have to fight for a good APR. Thank you

http://www.hyundaicanada.com/Pages/SpecialOffer/SalesPromotions.aspx In Canada GLS AWD 2.7L 2009 now sells for $21,995 with destination incl. (CAD I guess, which is $18,000 now), with 0% APR for 48 months. Do you think we can wait for better deals in the US than what we have right now? |
