When evaluating prices, be sure that you evaluate the dealer.For our 2007, we selected dealers based on the criteria that the dealer must have their own paint and body shop, fully equipped service department and a trained staff.
We made the mistake once when we purchased a Hyundai on price only. The experience was HORRIBLE! The dealer had a minimal service department and no paint/body shop. Each visit for service resulted in damage to the car - then additional damage when they tried to repair previous damage. On one occasion, they put a sizable ding in the driver's door. When we insisted that is be repaired, they contracted with a good ol' boy who operated his 'paint shop' out of the back of his truck. Needless to say, the repair was unsatisfactory. In the first six months of ownership, our car spent more that 50 days in the shop - most of that repairing the damage done during previous visits. That dealer no longer sells Hyundai. Eventually, Hyundai allowed a neighboring dealer to repair the damage done by our original dealer.

Well, this is the third Hyundai I have bought from this dealer, thus I am aware of how good/bad they are. And yes, they do have both a good service and paint/body department. Which is one of the reasons I bought from them. Thanks for the advice and good luck.

Have been shopping Santas recently and
notice that all dealers seem to be loaded
with inventory. Does anyone have any info
as to whether or not Hyundai will up the
$1000 rebate or reinstigate the $750 rebate
for financing?

I would not be surprised if they did. Just MHO. For some reason the Kia SUV seems to be out selling it too, here at least.
 
gas is over $3 per gal in the west...the consumer is scared and the summer is not even here yet. This is not to mention the spike in food prices etc.
 
I bought mine in Feb but do not put a lot of miles on it (luckily)
 
I think I would not want to be in the auto business these days. You will see real pain if it gets over $3.50 per gal which it could easily! In fact some predict $4!!Ouch

I was looking a couple weeks ago and was ready to make the deal but never wound up selling my car. The dealer was trying to steal it on the trade in and I thought this month would've been better than last. Oops.
Anyway, the incentives from Hynudai last a month. They may do something at the end or you'll have to wait until May 4. They implement the new incentives on the 4-5th of the month.
I'm waiting till May. IMO, they're sales are going to be so off this month, they'll come back with better incentives and rebates. Good luck.

Thanks for the reply. It's probably good advice. I
also read in the Korean Times 3 04 4 weeks ago that
Hyundai's inventories were stacking up. Nothing to be
lost by waiting. They certainly won't be going up
in price.
 
Good luck.

why not buy from who has the best price and take it in for service at the best service dept?

"A car with 10,000 is considered a used car no matter who sells it. Be careful about that dealer. You should be able to get that same car for about 22-23,000. ITS USED."
 
while this car does have alot of miles, it is still a new car (for warranty purposes), so getting 10 grand in a discount is just not reasonable.
 
this car would sell for 24K-27K if it was a true used car (already been titled by someone).

"MSRP $26910.00
Selling Price $24261.00 "
 
to get $2700 off this car is very good. the dealers price is way below invoice and i wouldn't think you could do any better than this.

"He said it was just the wax left over from buffing and will clean it next day when I come back to pick up papers. He did note it down on delivery papers. "
 
if he noted the scratched on delivery papers, the dealership should have to fix them. it also depends on what he said in the delivery papers. Does it say the dealership will buff the scratches to the best of their ability, or that they will fix them?
