its more like $3400.. too bad i didn't do any research.. my budget 3 weeks ago was around 35k.. i did research on many cars, but i never even bothered researching on cars under 20k.. i went in to save money, save payments and feel free for next 10 years on a good reliable car... i got a good car, but hate the fact that i got ripped off.

We have all made financial mistakes. Don't beat yourself up over it. Just enjoy your new car. And when it comes to buying anything that takes negotiation - the best rule to remember is "no one is your "friend". They are there to separate you from as much of your money is possible." May be pessimistic, but it's true!

I think i pay too much for my 09 GLS too,
almost 18500 after tax and all the fee plus my trade in. (1000 for the trade)

What was the price before taxes, license, fees, and trade-in? What was the MSRP of the car, including destination?
There's only a $1000 general rebate on the 2009 Sonata (and $500 loyalty), so great deals will be hard to come by on them right now. They're not at the fire-sale prices of the 2008s.

So it looks to me like you got the car for well under invoice, depending on which rebates you qualified for. So, what's the problem?

Ｉ keep seeing people on this forum got 08 sonata at a much cheaper price sometime even the SE edition. so i am not sure if my deal is good. I just hope i got it for average price.
I bought the car less than 2 hour from the moment i saw the 09 model.

Apples to oranges. There's a $3000 rebate on the 2008s, plus dealers are routinely offering them at well below invoice (below rebates) to clear them out. The 2009 is a much improved car over the 2008, and discounts aren't as big on the 2009s right now.
