I would suggest you schedule a one-way flight to Chicago O'Hare (ORD) from either LGA or EWR, and buy from Pugi Hyundai/Mazda/VW in Downers Grove, IL. You will pay substantially less than your NJ and NY dealers. Remember, the warranty is a Hyundai corporate warranty, and must be honored at any authorized Hyundai dealer.
 
I was recently quoted less than $19K for a 2007 Sonata Limited from Pugi. That's where I bought a 2006 Elantra GLS sedan last December ($13,700 OTD) , and they are really great people. No BS, no extraneous fees, and they list every line item amount in plain English - plus dealer Doc fee is only $25.
 
Go to their website - do a Google search - and, e-mail their internet sales department. It will be well worth your time.

Thank you w9cw for you your reply.
 
Was the quote you metioned less than $19K for a 2007 Sonata Limited with Ultimate package ?
 
I will certainly be sending out an email today asking for a quote from them, as you mentioned i think its worth the effort to fly down to IL and drive the car back from there especially if you are going to save that much of money.

I cannot imagine that that includes the Ultimate package. The package alone adds over $1500. I would suspect that with the package the car will come in at around $20,500.
 
Any insight on whether I am correct on this? If they sell for less than that, they will lose money and no one will lose money on the sale of a car without factory support. The cheapest I could get a 2007 Limited without the paint premium and Ultimate package was $19,100

Speaking of saving money, check out Midway also--several low-cost airlines like Southwest fly in there.

I'm in PA as well. I just requested to see Springfield Hyundai's no haggle price for their Sonata... 21,295... without tax/tags/title... I'm pretty sure I can negotiate lower than that. Today would've been a good time to go up (End of the month), but I didn't get around to it.

Also, http://www.autosite.com/content/research/vir/index.cfm/vehicle_number_int/101957- 8/Action/Options has the invoice at 22,627. I got a no haggle price for 21,295... I actually may consider accepting, instead of trying to negotiate downward

sonata unlimited by sligg

Sonata Unlimited in steel gray, black interior which by the way is not available in the NYC area.
 
I was actively shopping this car the last 2 days of the month. Unfortunately this doesn't give you enough time to make a decision without being pressured. So I didn't buy. I will shop again the end of November but this time I will allow myself at least 5 days to play the circus again.
 
The cliches are so annoying:
"What do I have to do to earn your business?"
"If I beat your price are you ready to sign the deal?"
 
On and on-don't salesmen get tired using the same dumb old lines I heard a century ago?
 
My observations:
 
Don't waste your time with referrals from Costco, BJ's, Credit Unions, on line web sites such as Edmunds, Cars Direct, Fitzmall, etc.
 
All referrals are to give dealers free leads. I was told by several salesmen referrals mean nothing, you still have to negotiate. The end of the month may be meaningful dollar wise. You can do better just using email rather than fax or telephone.
 
These are the last three quotes I got in NYC:
1. $19999
2. $18500
3. $17968
 
I rejected all three because in NYC the new gimmick printed on the purchase order is a Delivery Fee of $439. And this does not include the documentation fee of $45.
 
What will they think of next?
 
I'm not sure the last quote is not a low ball. I will check it out tomorrow.
 
One other item that's printed on the PO:
 
Waste Tire Mgmt Fee $2.50 per tire.
 
If there is no trade in do you still pay this to the state?

Sligg, if you can by a 2007 Limited for $17,968 and add on the $484 for delivery fee and documentation, you are still at only $18,452...that's a STEAL my friend if they'll actually sell it to you at that price which I find incredible and hard to believe.
 
Run...run...run like the wind my friend and go get it now before they change their mind

dudenj - Price for the 2007 Sonata Limited was $18,465 with carpet and trunk mats options before tax, title, and license, but including applicable rebates and dealer fees. This quote did not include the Ultimate Package. Still a reasonable deal however, I think. It still may be worth your while to contact Pugi. They typically respond by e-mail in a reasonable amount of time.

Got an email quote from Pugi
 
$18898 for the Sonata Limited Standard.
 
There are better prices on this forum.
