Afternoon all, I have been getting a lot of help from this forum and tried to deal at the prices mentioned before. However, the best OTD price I have got so far was $17000 for a white 08 GLS AT V4 with popular equipment package. I didn't want a white car and requested a silver but all they could find was a black. However, with this black car, the dealer gave me a OTD price of 17680. I was confused by this huge difference. What do you all think? Thanks for your help! |

Replying to: jwarrio (Apr 12, 2008 6:51 pm) MSRP on my Sonata was $18,280, the dealer gave me a $300 discount and the $3K rebate. I'm thinking even with at AT you're at least $1000 above where you should be. Maybe you need another dealer?

Replying to: gnomad (Apr 12, 2008 9:20 pm) What price should I be looking at before TTL given a 08 GLS V4 w/ popular package? Should I have dealt with price and not OTD? Thanks for your help guys.

Replying to: jwarrio (Apr 12, 2008 10:40 pm) You haven't heard it before because it isn't true. The only color Hyundai has charged more for on the Sonata is the powder white pearl. Maybe the salesperson should have said, "Black cars are more expensive at our dealership."  IMO you should not settle for more than invoice less any rebates you qualify for on a 2008 Sonata. You can get the invoice numbers here at edmunds.com. Since the 2008s are nearly a year old now (they came out last June I recall), I'd personally haggle for under invoice before rebates. I know dealers in my area and other areas are offering that kind of deal w/o negotiation on the 2008s. |

Replying to: jwarrio (Apr 12, 2008 10:40 pm) I did a build your own on the Hyundai website. 08 GLS AT with the 4 and the pop package came out at $19,520 before frieght, that was to Ak and I would expect frieght to TN would be less--$3K rebate is $16, 520, add 7% sales tax and you're right at $17, 676. Sounds like they are pretty close. We don't have sales tax in AK except for a few municipalities and they usually cap it at $15, that saved me 1100 right there, plus my DMV fees are $275 all inclusive and they didn't charge me a documentation fee. So, compared to my deal- $600 for the AT, $650 for the popular equipment package, $1156 for sales tax, I don't think you are going to do much better on the Sonata than what's offered. For reference, try this- http://www.hyundaiusa.com/ and use the build your own function. Hope this helps a bit. If you can find a "strippo" like mine, which is not even close to being a strippo, maybe you can get a better OTD. FWIW, the 5 spd really makes the car fun to drive. Honda and toyota may offer 5 speeds but I have never seen a 5 spd on a mid size car here, the local dealer does not order them so equipped.
