#69 of 2159 Invoice pricing by steve_ HOST Aug 29, 2003 (8:43 pm)
The invoice isn't necessarily the ultimate price that the dealer paid for the car. There's holdback for starters, in addition to various incentive payments like dealer cash plus spiffs that consumers never learn of.   Rest assured that the dealer is still making money when a car sells for below invoice.   Steve, Host

Brian, I’m not going to pretend I know how it all works all I can tell you is that I paid $23,000 ($22,000 after rebate) plus they charged me $98.50 Reg / Title, $18 credit , $190 documentation fee, and sales tax on top. I happy I got a good deal and I have no need / gain to lie to you , I figured it had something to do with the new models coming out
#71 of 2159 Demo Cars by jaybab Aug 30, 2003 (10:41 am)
Hi All, I've been negotiating with a Dealer on a 03 LX 2WD, Sandstone with dealer installed sunroof for 21,700. I have just learned that the owner of the dealership's wife, drives it as a demo...and it has 6,000 miles on it. The saleman said that they calculate $0.18 per mile, which doesn't sound right....   Can I negotiate a longer warranty? More money off? Any recommendations????   Jay Bab
#72 of 2159 demos by steve_ HOST Aug 30, 2003 (11:17 am)
The factory warranty should start the day you drive the demo off the lot; that's the way it works with most cars.   Demo price formulas are all over the map. Dealers always seem too proud of their demo vehicles and don't seem to consider them used cars since they've never been titled.   No telling who else drove it (and how) besides the owner's spouse either.   Try searching for "demo" in Any Questions for a Car Dealer? or Real-World Trade-In Values.   Somebody is going to buy it - may as well be you   Steve, Host
#73 of 2159 Buying a SanteFe in South Florida? by klh13 Aug 30, 2003 (2:36 pm)
I am looking to buy a 2003 SantaFe in the south Florida area, anywhere from Delray to Miami. Anyone know of a dealer from experience?
#74 of 2159 Gypsydog's '03 Santa Fe by shivelyt Aug 31, 2003 (3:20 pm)
when I read about all these great deals on cars, I am reminded of the story about the car dealer who advertised he sells all his cars at cost. How, you ask him, can you make any money selling cars at cost? That's easy, he replies, I buy them below cost. Things are seldom what they seem.

Regarding your deal...any chance that you can scan you receipt to show us? It seems like you go the impossible deal.
#76 of 2159 2.7L GLS 2WD in NYC? by greg03 Sep 02, 2003 (8:27 am)
I'm in the NYC area and will buy within a month. I'm looking for a '04 2WD GLS, silver, with package 6. I'd ocnsider an 03 if the incentive was right. Anyone else in the area find a good deal? stap123aol.com
#77 of 2159 about to purchase by jason86 Sep 02, 2003 (8:37 am)
I'm just outside of Tampa, FL and went to drive a SF this past weekend. Loved the car, and the wife and I plan on purchasing the 2.7L 6-cyl with the only option being the sunroof ($562). The msrp was around $21,80, and within 5 minutes they had it down to 18,900. Then the wife took over (I was ready to leave, but she loves to 'bicker' the price) and she had them down to $17,500, which they said was what they paid for it. They agreed to take off the dealer/paper work fees ($399) and another $559 delivery/prep fee. She told them she wanted it for $16,500, they said no, so we said we were going to another dealership to get some prices (knowing that in reality, $17,500 wasn't bad, but she really wanted it for $17 flat). After reading all of your posts (love the site, wish I had found it sooner) it looks like even $17,500 is a good deal.
#78 of 2159 MY SANTA FE! by jaybab Sep 03, 2003 (6:28 am)
Well, after tons of time spent doing research online and talking to numerous dealers...I signed the papers last night for MY SANTA FE! After reading a number of the posts, I have come to the conclusion that the participants here are probably better at negotiating and getting the best deal! I ended up getting a Sandstone LX 2WD 3.5L with 3,000 miles on it (demo) in perfect condition and they are also putting in a Sunroof. Final price before T&L was $22,301. Which was about $700 under invoice.   Playing the game just took too long and was kinda annoying, but I think I got a pretty good deal! Still would like feedback for next time down that road. What do you guys think?   Can't wait to pick it up, post a picture on the Owners Board and be able to share Santa Fe stories!   Jay
