| I am trying to find a good price to pay for a 2007 Sonata SE in the Cleveland, Ohio area. I am willing to drive a couple of hours for a good deal. I don't care about any extra options. Does anyone have any advice regarding a price to settle on? I know I can get $2500 off in rebates and another $500 off using Hyundai's financing, but I am having trouble trying to find a baseline to start negotiations. Also seeing as the 08's are taking over the lots do I have a better bargaining power. It seems everyone here has a good idea as to what is going on. | |

| Hey guys and gals, I test drove a limited today and I really liked that car! After reading the posts here it seems I should be able to get it for 19.5k + the Ultimate option package, so I should ask for about $21,000, plus I keep the rebate. Does this amount seem right? I don't want to start off negotiations with an insane offer. | |

Replying to: atlbuyer (Aug 08, 2007 3:38 pm) At that time there was a general rebate of $1K, plus $1K for HMFC financing (5.9% for 60 months), plus we qualified for $500 owner loyalty rebate. Town Hyundai was selling Sonatas  $1900 under invoice in Feb. Our price was $16,651 plus $189 doc fee plus $200 for registration and title (including 20 day NJ temporary registration) plus 6% CT sales tax. Total OTD was $18,189. We did not get an option package. The only option was floor mats which added 50-some odd $ to the base price of the car.

Replying to: sligg (Aug 09, 2007 5:23 pm) Sligg, we've been through this before: would you rather pay $16,651 plus $189 doc fee or $17,500 plus $39 doc fee? Simple question. Simple "yes" or "no" answer. I knew the title & reg fees were higher than the actual CT fees. However, I also knew Towne's price was over $2,500 less than the local dealer wanted (before adding his doc fee at $378 plus about $75 override on the title & reg). Compared to Fitzmall's doc fee of only $99, Towne's price was still $800 better (plus they are only 100 miles away vs 400+/- miles to DC area). Towne sold the car for $4400 under invoice (including the rebates), $5429 less than sticker on a $22,080 MSRP. You're just too hung up on the amount of doc fee any dealers charges. We all know the doc fee is 100% to the dealer, but "so what" if the dealers has discounted the price enough? |
