#51 of 6610 2002 Sonata GLS by hyunday_dude Dec 16, 2001 (6:46 pm)
Just bought a ruby red, 2002 GLS. Auto, V-6, ABS w/ Traction Control, mud flaps, cargo net, sunroof with wind deflector, premium sound, carpeted mats, 16in. 10 spoke alloys. $17,400, no trade. Is this a good deal?   I live in MA.

Hi, I live in Mass also, and I bought my '02 sonata gls/package 5 (moonroof w/ deflector, mats, etc) from rt2 hyundai in leominster. http://www.rte2hyundai.com/  I paid $17k for it with the 10yr/100k Hyundai Advantage service contract/warranty (~$700). I also went to Nashua Hyundai and they said (at the time, Thanksgiving week) that they normally wouldn't give the same offer that Rt 2 did, but to take business away, they'd match it. So to keep things simple and local, I went back to Rt2 and signed. With the extras on the gls, you did very well especially with the scarcity of the sonatas that doesn't seem to be lightening up. Thanks Nate
#53 of 6610 CarsDirect Price? NG by r2d4 Dec 18, 2001 (9:30 am)
I was trying to purchase a 2002 Sonata GLS through carsdirect.com. It seems they can't give me the guaranteed price, In fact they could only get it for $300 more than the quoted price, plus they wanted to add another $200 for carsdirect, so i'm off shopping on my own again using edmunds.com as a guide.   But it seems they are in short supply right now here in LA.   I was told more will be coming in after the 1st of the year.

This may sound like a criticism of carsdirect - it's really not - just restating some facts. A week or so before Thanksgiving I requested a quote through carsdirect -Sonata LX-pkg 5-no ABS. I didn't hear from the dealer, but did get a follow-up e-mail from carsdirect questioning whether I had. When I said no I was assured that I'd hear from the dealer promtply. After that, never heard from the dealer or carsdirect. Carsdirect's dealer for this area was Antwerpen in Balto MD. On Thanksgiving day we scouted 3 dealers in the Balto area, incl Antwerpen. Anterpen is a major dealer. They had a minimum of 300 Elantras, Accents etc. Even had at least 20 Santa Fe - which I usually see only a few of, if any. But they had not ONE Sonata on the lot. So I guess I can't fault the dealer for not replying to my quote request if they had no cars. We ended up buying a sand LX from the local dealer, MSRP $20300. Haven't seen or heard of anyone having this same car since. Carsdirect quote this morning for same MSRP was $19,176. Almost exactly what we paid locally. I can't remember the net quote back in Nov, but it's definately gone up since then. And, with the Sonatas still in very tight supply, carsdirect could still be a dead end street. So far we're extremely pleased with the LX and have no regrets for not getting a "$100 over invoice" deal with the current supply/demand situation.

I'm giving up on finding the sonatain Colorado. It's been 3 months since I started looking for the 2002 GLS with ABS and Sunroof and nothing. Contacted 6 dealers around here and nothing. I don't want to wait any longer. Besides, the Sonatas that dealers have, are sold at MSRP which is not a real bargain. Probably go'na settle on a demo Subaru Legacy. Hyundai deffinately screwed this up. They finally have come up with something decent but you can't buy it. I'm very dissapointed. I really wanted this car, but oh well, not an end of the world. Whoever reads this in Colorado, good luck finding one.

system on this?
#57 of 6610 Beat the system by wyst Dec 20, 2001 (9:07 pm)
Anyone really can as far as I saw... They never asked for any proof I had ever owned a Hyundai, at many of the places I contacted. Of course where we ended up buying new we had other Hyundai's since we bought our last 2 from them.   See post 12. and 27. for how we did
#59 of 6610 2002 Sonata LX by scotty356 Dec 24, 2001 (9:13 am)
I just bought a 2002 Sonata LX, with sunroof and abs/traction control last week. I paid just under $17,000.
#60 of 6610 scotty 356...could you please give me the name of the dealer by mujhc Dec 26, 2001 (11:20 am)
I have to buy at least 2 more Sonata LX with ABS option...at this point in chicago, not only they're not available, but even when you put down deposit the best deal you can get is 18200.It's a bit hard to believe that you got that car under 17000. Now it has to be either typo or you must be dreaming.
