Out The Door. In essence the amount of the check you give them.
 
I've had somewhat better luck online. Out of the eleven dealers within 100 miles, three haven't responded at all. Two were pretty good often responding within an hour (during business hours). Their answers were always on point. These two were lowest quotes I got. The others were considerably worse: not answering my question, answering the wrong question, days between between replies, etc. Overall I got a range of $1200 on their lowest, OTD prices.
 
One I nicknamed texting guy- his answers looking like of bunch of text messages strung together. While he was the one of the lowest priced and promised to beat any other dealer's price his lack of professionalism, timeliness (or lack thereof) and varying answers over time really turned me off.
 
I ended up putting a deposit down this weekend with one of the good ones. The price was as quoted.

Hi there,
I called West Broad in Richmond today and got a great deal on the Sante Fe SE FWD. We're completing the deal Thursday and I plan to pick it up on Saturday.
 
Thanks for the tip. It was good talking to you Sunday night....I really appreciate your help and I can't wait to pick it up. I got the Slate Blue.
 
Thanks again,
Lauren in VA

I'm in Canada, so the pricing is different. I've decided I want a GL 3.3L AWD, we have lots of snow here lol. So the price I've been quoted is $30,000. So thats a beginning, now I have narrowed it down I can contact the dealerships again and say for sure what I want. In a few days we'll drive the 2 hrs. to see the salesmen, that will be stressful. We're hoping to get them down to $27,000. for a cash deal. Do they really give you a better deal if its cash? Hope so

question about dealer in albany,ny by air2karl

Hi,everyone, glad to find this forum and hope to get some help here, thanks in advance! I live in Albany, ny and would like to know if anyone knows any good dealership in my area. Another thing is, some of my friends keep saying stay away from Korean cars, only get Honda or Toyota, even my Korean friends drive camery. However, after reading on this forum, I feel like Santa Fe is a nice car, and the price and warranty look great. So if anyone can give some objective opinion on this, say, comparing the Santa Fe with the CRV or Highlander, what is the difference there? I am looking to get a SUV. Thanks everyone! Appreciate any input on my questions!

My experience has been that they'd rather not sell you a car for cash - it removes the potential for them to make money on the financing.
 
Let them think you'll be financing the car, then they're more likely to give you a low price, then turn you over to the F&I guy for the REAL profit...

09 Santa Fe Limited purchased 07/6/09 by 09safelim

Our daughter was really encouraging us to purchase a Honda since she and her hubby have been very happy with their CRV. I did my own research and decided I wanted an 09 SF Limited FWD. I never thought I would buy a Hyundai; but we did. We decided to go with Hyundai of Valdosta (GA). I test drove one 08 with the 3rd row and Rear Entertainment System. I decided to go with my "gut" and purchased the 09 for $24,008 Out The Door including dealer discounts AND they gave us the $4,500 Cash for Clunkers. (We had a 1995 XLT Ford Explorer 4wd). I am very excited. We drove the car down to our home in Central Florida and loved the ride. My only question about the car has been the red blinking red light up by the windshield on the drivers side.
 
I had a very pleasant experience with the Hyundai of Valdosta and would encourage anyone interested in a Hyundai to visit the dealership. They have answered all my many, many questions via telephone calls and email ">while I was still in the decision making mode.
 
So far I am very, very excited about our new purchase and look forward to many many years with this car.

working with a salesman here in austin, tx and wanted to make sure we were getting a good deal. we are looking to purchase a 2009 Hyundai Santa Fe SE with the Touring package (third row seating). We've test driven and crawled around in it so we know we want this make/model/package. Touring packages seem rare. There are only two in Texas that have the Bluetooth accessory (which we really like). Here's what we're being offered for one with touring package, bluetooth, mats and cargo net:
 
MSRP $27,955
Invoice $26,480
Dealer Offer: $23,850 ($150 to bring it in from out of town) + TTL (rebates already factored in)
 
there are two other dealers in town and no one can get their hands on exactly what we want so we don't have an apples to apples price war to be waged here in austin or san antonio (we looked). does that price seem like it's a good deal?
