#2832 of 3252 Re: 08 elantra GLS [bis2] by jfritsch Mar 06, 2009 (4:36 am)
Replying to: bis2 (Mar 01, 2009 1:11 pm) Can't exactly say with all the details, but if your trade was a 10 yr old junker worth about $1100 trade in (tax and tag in boston?) and you paid 12500 for the 08 17300 msrp gls auto that is an OK deal.   I believe the trade in on a 08 model used like yours with avg miles is about $10000. So for a new 08 your deal is OK. Worse if your trade is worth a lot more than 1100.   Thought you had a great deal there until I saw it was an 08 instead of 09.   Happy Drivin --jjf   Yesterday I got an 08 elantra GLS (pzev)    -automatic -carbon grey -popular equipment package -cargo mat -bluetooth    for 12,502 OTD    I felt like I got a good deal, am I wrong?    PS I am in the boston area    trade/tax title etc basically offset each other exactly
#2834 of 3252 I bought a new 2008 Elantra GLE..... by wxman6 Mar 07, 2009 (4:37 pm)
.....today in southern Ohio for 15,900 OTD with no trade. Sticker was 17,040 so I think I did OK. Has the popular equipment package. The price was 14,600 before 7% tax, and fees. They still had 4-5 '08s in stock as of this morning, but with the great spring weather, there were many buyers in the showroom, and I think they unloaded most of them today.   We were "this close" to buying a corollla, but, ultimately, the $2K price gap swayed us to the Elantra. The OTD price for the corolla was 17,900. After test-driving both cars, it is my opinion that the elantra is a less "refined" car, but still a very good one.

Replying to: wxman6 (Mar 07, 2009 4:37 pm) Holy smokes, you got clobbered on fees. After the sales tax you got hit for about $1,400 in fees. How much of the fees went to the government and how much to the dealer. (Dealer fees should be added to the price of the car to see what was really paid to the dealer.)

Replying to: bhmr59 (Mar 07, 2009 8:17 pm) What??! Do the math again. County sales tax of 7% on 14,600 is $1022, so that leaves about $300 for fees. Replies to this message: bhmr59 (Mar 09, 2009 5:10 pm)

Replying to: backy (Feb 23, 2009 9:36 am) The SE also includes fog lights. Just picked up an '08 SE for 15,900 OTD with $500 trade in on a '95 Honda Accord that had seen much better days. Included mats and wheel locks. Replies to this message: backy (Mar 09, 2009 5:56 pm)

Replying to: wxman6 (Mar 08, 2009 5:50 am) You're right. I should have used calculator or at least pencil & paper.

Replying to: jpeter1093 (Mar 09, 2009 4:37 pm) The GLS with PEP includes fogs also.

#2841 of 3252 two different offers by cerkel1 Mar 15, 2009 (2:50 pm)
I am starting to get at my wits end!. I want to purchase a 2008 Elantra GLS and was offered what I feel is a fair price (based on Edmunds TMV). .SECOND offer was for 12,988 (incentive and rebate included) plus tax and tags (no trade in) for the 2008 GLS. When I first spoke to the salesman (on the phone) he quoted me 13,361 OTD. So after he told me that price I realized THAT was a great offer and then when I talked to him again and he told me 12,988 because I didn't qualify for the active military and college grad (no kidding , I am a 55 yr old grandmother) and we already discussed how much of an incentive I was qualified for during our first conversation. Do you think I have some negotiating power here? Could he have seriously made a mistake when he quoted me the first price? (in my area a 2008 Elantra GLS automatic, basic features is 13,101 plus tax and tags. Please help!! Thanks so much
