Replying to: dtp1 (Aug 10, 2005 7:10 am) $21145 $21100 $20651 I purchased the lowest quote and am financing for the $1000 rebate. Plus I'm supposed to get a $1000 rebate for owning a Toyota Camry. I'm to pick up the car this Saturday. This deal is iffy. All I have is the receipt for $2000 charged on my credit card. Every time I asked the salesman a question he kept saying don't worry about it. I asked what the loan rate % was, he said it will be competitive. Out of state registration and inspection, they will take care of it (NY to VT). I don't believe this-how can a NYC dealer get Vermont license plates and Vermont car inspection. Saturday, I'll know if the cute tricks will pop up such as destination charge ($600), document fee, dealer advertising fee, dealer prep fee, etc. I was told the quote they gave was what I would pay, nothing extra. We'll see (?) As a point of comparison, Car's Direct quote for this car is $23061. Every dealer in NYC quoted lower. Car's Direct is misleading. The Sonata LX is a good looking car and the reviews have been favorable but I have yet to see this car on the road or in the shopping mall parking lots. At the dealers I visited, it was my observation: Not too many people were shopping Hyundai. In fact several times I was the only person in the show room. Fifty years ago shopping a new car was a garbage experience and today it's still a garbage experience. Their sales secret is intimidation. The average salesman is not good but they have their bag of tricks so the advantage is on their side. No matter how good a price you get there is always the feeling that you got taken. And the internet has not made buying a car any easier. No matter how many car buying websites you visit, you still have to deal with a salesman and the ensuing hassle. Buying a car is not a pleasant experience!

| Don't be too sure about slamming cars direct until you definitly see what your final price will be...Sounds to me that you are already in doubt about your price...Dest. fee (everyone has to pay that,... doc fees ???...dealer prep fee?????who knows what they will charge ... seems to me you should have done all the sales form figures before offering your credit card!!!!!! | |

| For those of you that have taken advantage of this, what interest rates have you been getting? | |

I've scanned through all the posts and can't find anyone who has jumped for the current lease deal on the GLS, $199 a month for 36 months. Does anyone know more about that deal, e.g. residual value, equipment on the car (I assume it's an I4 with no options), security deposit, miles per year, etc. That lease is attractive to me if I could get it with 0 down (I have excellent credit), even if the payment is higher. Thanks.
