I think you are referring to manual tran. See my earlier post for an auto (without sunroof) bought in southwestern PA Bowser for $13,900 OTD. Tell Jeff Empey I referred you.

They are probably the closest to me. About 1 hour.
 
If I don't get an email reply tomorrow I'll give him a call.

Yes, the $2000 (or $1500 depending on state) rebate is to the consumer. However, $15k OTD for an Elantra SE as you described would be a really exceptional deal right now, given the low availability and popularity of the SE--unless there's almost no sales tax and low license fees in your state. Consider that invoice for the car you are looking at is around $17,500, or $15,500 after the $2000 rebate. So to get it for $15k OTD you're going to have to convince the dealer to part with this rare and popular car for, what, $2000 or so under invoice? I'm not saying it's not possible, but could be real tough to do. That kind of discount would be easier to get on a GLS vs. an SE. Good luck.

Dealer told me that invoice was $ 15,677 or something like that. Hopefully the other 4 dealers I emailed will get back to me tomorrow so I can compare. Either way the info. here was useful and I will use everyones data to make an informed decision.

The dealer must have included the $2k rebate when they quoted the invoice to you. To verify that, you can check out the invoice pricing right here at edmunds.com.

Purchased a Hyundai Elantra GLS with Power Package for $13100 out the door two weeks ago from dealer in Fairfax VA. Sticker was $17,000. 3 1/2% sales tax in Virginia and $295 dealers prep fee, and $35? registration fee. So about $12400 before tax and fees. Dealer threw in mats. Also dealer in Alexandria VA which is desperate to make sales. His new car department is selling to his used car department in order generate sufficient volume. I don't see that much of a difference between the GLS and SE models to justify the incremental amount. I would consider taking a short drive to Northern Virginia.

The big difference between the SE and GLS is the electronic stability control which Consumer Reports considers a must have.

That plus 16" alloys vs. 15" steelies (may help improve handling a bit), leather-covered wheel with audio controls, leather-covered shifter, telescopic wheel (can be important for a comfy driving position), and trip computer with mpg meter.

Well there are only two dealers that have the SE with Premium Pkg and 5 Speed. Both are close in proximity to me. They are hoovering around $ 15.7k
 
I just found out that Southwestern PA has a $500 autorama discount and dealers have some dealer cash avaliable (based on volume sales) so the $ 15k is looking realistic.

If I go with a 2008 Hyundai Elantra GLS (Vehicle Options: Automatic, Splash Guards, Floor Mats, Popular Equipment Package) with a MSRP of $17,165 I can get for $13,899 - $ 500 plus a possible $ 500 if they meet quota.
 
Unfortunatly, this one does not have the electronic stability control which I want.
