Hi evergreen2,
The $237 is for the permanent plates. So in my case I paid the tags and title fee when I bought the car. I did not have to pay any additional fees when I came in and picked up my permanent license plates.
All the Best,

Wow, that VA dealer is giving a great deal! A local Hyundai dealer in Portland offered $15,999. This is just the basic Touring with Automatic Transmission. I have not asked around.
Any idea if that $14K deal someone got in VA is still do-able or did someone just get really lucky?

Alright backy, YOU are all things Hyundai so here's a question: Is there a way to tell in advance, based on your extensive experience with this manufacturer, if Hyundai typically extends their rebates/incentives right through the summer July-Sept)? The current ones are listing 6/30 expiration dates but am curious if this is done month to month just to make the consumer anxious. Your opinion most appeciated! TIA.

No. Not precisely, anyway.
Think about it: if buyers could determine future rebates/incentives, that would cause havoc with the manufacturers' marketing and sales.
But considering the recession and all, and the fact Elantra sales are not that great right now, I think it's a good bet that Hyundai will keep rebates on the Elantra through the summer, especially since they'll need to start clearing the lots of 2009s pretty soon for the 2010s. Just what those rebates will be is anybody's guess. They could go up, or down.
If I knew the answer to your question, I would be one pretty wealthy guy.

Thanks backy for your feedback. Only reason I asked, I'm anxiously awaiting this Cash for Clunkers program the fed is about to begin here next month having a clunker myself that qualifies. The vouchers will run as high as $4500! Was wondering if the manufacturers see this coming and decide amongst themselves to scale back the rebates so as to retain some of their lost profits (end of model year ALWAYS does this no matter how hard they try to hold the line IMHO. (9/30 is typically a GREAT day to buy from my experience over the years btw) Will be interesting to see what happens. Like you said though, regardless, in this economy they've still got to make room for the 10's showin' up by the end of the summer/early Fall. Take away the rebates and the customer could shift to the competition down the street and what have you got? Excess inventory!

I wouldnt get your hopes up of getting $4500 for your clunker. The magic word is "up to" $4500. The dealer gives you whatever current scrap price is and based on the size, weight, etc of your clunker will set the price you get. Could be $500. I guess we will have to wait and see what the final version says, but thats the way im reading the rule. The government wants the gas guzzlers off the road, so as a condition of the rebate, the dealer must destroy the clunkers.

I don't think that's the way it works. I think you get $3500-4500 for the clunker, plus whatever the salvage value is on the car--since the car must be junked by the dealer. So if the car has a trade-in value of $3000 and salvage value of $500, you get only $500 plus the government cash payment of $3500-4500. That is what I understand anyway. I don't have a clunker to trade in, so I haven't looked at it too closely but did review the Web site for it the other day.
