Hi - First time new car buyer here. Just getting ready to begin negotiations on a Black GT 5-speed NO sunroof or any options. Dealer in Topeka found one and will bring in for me - I am assuming this hurts my bargaining leverage but hopefully not too much. Anyone have any experiences with Sunflower or Noller Hyundai here in KC area? And any idea what this stripped (but still loaded) version is going for around here? Also, I have to put down a deposit to bring the car in - is that refundable? Sorry for sounding so clueless. Will let you know how things turn out. Cheers - Michael |

| Deposits should be refundable should you decide not to take delivery of the car after you actually see and drive it. That is a common and reasonable condition. Another condition for return of the deposit is if the dealer renegs at all on the deal, e.g. there is an unreasonable delay in shipping the car, the car you ordered is mysteriously not available, etc. But if I were you I'd get the terms in writing. Also it helps to put the deposit on a credit card, because if they try to unfairly keep the deposit, you can challenge it with the credit card company. | |

Backy - Thanks for the advice. I did put the deposit on credit card (thinking the same thing re: the card company). Also just got a call from dealer 10 min ago saying the car is here (there, actually - 25 minute drive). We'll go over tomorrow and make sure that this is in fact the right car for us. I'll make sure to follow the Edmunds.com advice and try not to appear too overeager, but I'm sure the salesperson is salivating over having someone want a particular model so bad he had to put a deposit down to bring it in.... thanks again - M |

First congratulations on your GT. I am in the process of buying one I am wondering if your GT is manual or automatic. I live in Princeton so it's not too far from Maxxon. Thank you. |

Hi all, I'm looking to buy an Elantra GT in a month or so and was wondering if there is anyone here that has any experience with any dealers in the Milwaukee area. The only option that I'm looking for is an auto tranny so what would be a good price? I'm starting to send email inquiries to various dealers and would like to do most of the negotiations that way. Also, does anyone know which dealers are better to deal with for service-related issues. Thanks in advance and keep posting the good info! pw_eastside |

| Can anyone suggest a dealer where they got a good deal. I am looking for GT 5Speed Package 11 (pretty much fully loaded). I live in the central NJ so can also shop in PA. Thank you in advance. | |

Just got an email offer of $13,725 + tax and title for an elantra gt w/ auto, no other options. Does this sound like a good deal or do you think I can do better. Thanks |

| There is a dealer west of Chicago that's advertising a base GT with auto for $13,099. Unfortunately, I can't find the stock number in the ad on their website! But I never trust ads. Your price seems to be about 2.7% below Edmunds invoice price, so if it's the color you want, and you are not compromising on the options you really want, I say go for it! | |

It seems to me that the package deals in Chicago are giving a slightly better deal than the $13725 for base auto on the GT. The earlier comments suggest that one can pay ~ $400 more or so and get sunroof and ABS. This suggests that you might get this priced even lower if you present them with the competition. By the way, I might be in the market for a GT soon and I also live in the Southern Wisconsin area. Please post which Hyundai dealer(s) in the Milwaukee area you get your best offer(s). -thanks! Tim |
