FYI . . . O'Brien Auto Park in Urbana, IL has at least a dozen 2006 Elantra GLS sedans in stock. Most colors, some sunroofs, etc., but no hatchbacks. They just moved to a new location, and combined their two separate dealerships in the Champaign-Urbana area into one new monster store with multiple buildings. They sell the following: Hyundai, Kia, Toyota, Scion, Mazda, VW, Mitsubishi, and Chrysler at this new facility.
 
And, they have at least 20 2006 and 2007 Sonatas in stock as well, including several 2006 GLS V6 and 4-cylinder models.
 
If anyone looking for an Elantra is reasonably near east central IL, you might want to contact them. I know they are dealing on the Elantras and the 2006 Sonatas.
 
I have no interest (pecuniary) in this, but just thought I would mention it. I bought my 2006 Elantra elsewhere last December (Pugi in Downers Grove, IL) as O'Brien didn't have any stock at the time.

>One of my local dealers is advertising Elantras for a little over $12k. < I'm not sure I believe that backy. That doesn't sound like a real world price to me. The TMV best price with NO options, not even floor mats after $1,000 rebate is $13,618.

But I don't see any bottom line prices in your post.

My local Hyundai dealer(fairfax Hyundai) has tons of AT GLS's for $12,300.
 
Tax, Tag, destination, etc... is still around $1200 here for an OTD price of $13,500.
 
So it seems very believable to me.

OK, thanks for calling me a liar.
 
The lowest TMV price in my area, with the $1000 rebate, is $12,798. But you can throw "TMV" out the window when it comes to what is possible with real-world prices. I bought both of my Elantras for well under the "TMV" price. I guess you don't believe that, either.
 
With all-new '07 Elantras coming soon, consider that dealers that still have a good supply of '06s might offer really good prices on them to get rid of them before those all-new models arrive. It's very possible that HMA is offering dealers some extra incentive cash to clear the way for the '07s.
 
I expect the advertised price I saw included all rebates, including the $500 loyalty rebate. Invoice on the base GLS is $13,751. Less $1500 in rebates is $12,251. A very doable "teaser" price.

Pecuniary = relating to or involving money.
 
No, I didn't post any bottom line prices as I didn't talk to a salesperson and ask, since I alreay have a 2006 Elantra.
 
I did a recount as we stopped by last night to look at the 2007 Sonata . . . they have 22 Elantra GLS sedans (no hatchbacks) in stock. With that number, one would think they would want to move them.
 
FWIW . . . I paid $13,700 delivered, including IL state sales tax, title, license, and doc fees for a 2006 Elantra GLS sedan automatic last December.

Advertised pricing by tsgeisel

They're probably starting to expect the 2007s in soon, so doing what they can.
 
I wanted a hatchback when I got mine, and didn't want to wait for the Fit or the Versa (and kinda glad I didn't), so the Sentra really wasn't even going to be a consideration for me.
 
As for that advertised price, I'd like to remind folks that Hyundai generally offers a loyalty rebate and a military rebate. It could be that the price reflects both of those.

>OK, thanks for calling me a liar. < Like they say, if the shoe fits...... Just kidding, somewhat. You are a great defender of the brand, and offer alot of honest info. I just see Hyundai as having 2 goals. #1 is make a vehicle as good as the leaders Toyota and Honda. They're getting close, but not there yet. #2 raise prices accordingly on all models, which they're doing, even if you don't want to admit it. The only proof I need is the $2,000 higher prices that my local dealer is asking for now vs two yrs ago. I'm surprised Hyundai hasn't come out with a truck yet. They have made everything else, SUVs and Vans. Even Honda came out with a trk. Like everyone else they will probably make one on the SUV platform and charge $4K more than an Elantra. sigh

06 Elantra by nashes

For the 06 elantra GLS, I've calculated 12200 base + 1000 for the ABS/traction control package + 1200 registration, taxes etc (NY state) for a grand total OTD price $14500?
Is that true or can I do better?
How much more for the 07 elantra? (I believe the 07 elantra has abs standard).
Inputs appreciated.
