We were looking for a 2007 Sonata SE because from what I have read, I should go for the v-6 but I could not afford the LTD version. Well I contacted a lot and they have two LTD's and have really tried everythig to get me into one. I really would love to have one but I just have a limited income so I have to weigh out what I need and what I don't. Anyway, they only have the two LTD's and they are loaded with the platinum package. They are down to $24K and some change and that is before TTL. Then they take of the $2500 rebate. So for $395 a mo. for 6 years and 3 mo. I can drive the maxed out version. But I just don't want to stress myself out over making more payment than I can afford. I know that does not sound high to some but I live in a very rural area in Mississippi and incomes here are much lower than most. Anyway, I think I am going to pass and look for an ES. I am going to go back and read some previous posts but i just got one offer on an ES of $18,800. Is that a good initial offer? Should I even try to get them to come down? What is reasonable for me to counter with. I don't want to say I can pay a certain amount a month and end up paying too much. I know I am suppose to concentrate on the bottom line. The problem is my trade in. I was leasing a nissan frontier and according to nissan, I am right on track with what is owed, but everyone else thinks I am a bit upside down. I don't want to lose my skin in this. Thanks for any advice.

That's what I mean you are up to over 24K. Where is the low price vehicle they advertise to mislead people to be bated and come in? For the same price I have a fully loaded V6 powerful engine SUV with Onstar. Those payments are too high for a sonata. I have zero % and less payments per month for five years, a shoter time. Don't bite.

Look at the Saturn above. 17.000 "starting price, BUT the one shown over 21,000 plus ttl. what a rip off. And the 21000 does not even have floor mats!

Marie,
Please don't bite off more than you can chew. If you do, with late payments, past due bills to make a car payment will hurt you in the long run.
 
I drive an 06 4 cyl and I am very happy with it. It is quick, fast and has more horsepower than my V6 Mustang. I think you should reconsider the 4 cyl and by all means don't let a car salesman put you into more than you can afford. I might also offer a 75 month loan means you will be paying for this Sonata for a long time. That is a scary thought. Don't be afraid to tell them what you feel you can comfortably afford payment wise.
 
Good luck in your search.

Anyone in the Ohio/Indiana area. Richmond Hyundai is awesome by tdbailey

I bought my Sonata at Richmond Hyundai in Richmond, Indiana. They destroyed the local Dayton area dealers prices. My 07 Sonata GLS was $1000 under true factory invoice. Plus all the rebates off. No hassle, very easy to deal with. They did try to make a little money in the finance office, but I just went through my credit union to bypass that. I hate that I can't mention the salesman, he was very, very knowledgable and easy to deal with and actually called me after I bought the car! His name is James (sorry couldn't resist) it was the best experience I've ever had, but did have to drive 40 miles that's the only negative (but if everyone treated you well you wouldn't have to drive, so it's worth it)

07 Sonata SE/XM option 06 plus dealer leather by atlbuyer

Hi all...I'm looking at the 07 Sonata SE/XM and preferred pkg option 06 (power seat, compass) plus floor mats. I'm using Towne Hyundai's internet pricing to give me a range of what I should pay. Right now they sell for $4300 under invoice. Does anyone know if Towne charges doc fees and how much? A good price seems to be $17210 plus tax/title/etc. However, one dealer has the SE/XM with leather (i guess dealer installed isince it is not usually offered?). Anyway, how much do you think that leather is worth. I wouldn't mind it, but don't want to overpay for it!

Not sure how far you are from Decatur Alabama but you might want to check there as well and I agree with the other poster that you definitely should try the four cylinder model as you don't want to get something that will cause a financial burden for such a long time.

Towne Hyundai's doc fee is $189, unless it has changed in the last 2 months (which is doubtful).
 
Towne Hyudai was great to deal with. Personally, I'd keep away from after market leather seats. I don't recall the actual numbers but you could get into the Limited, which includes factory leather plus other features not in the SE for something like $2K (+/-). Check the invoice prices here on Edmunds.
 
Towne's "under invoice pricing" applies to any in-stock vehicle , regardless of trim-line or options.

Thanks for the reply. Would you stay away from after market leather b/c of quality, or is it not covered under warranty? I will probably go with SE/XM and cloth (plus floor mats).
