the Hyundai dealer here in Fayetteville, NC, has added a "market adjustment" sticker to up the "MSRP" on the Sonatas. This new "adjustment" adds $1995 to the cost of the car (just$5 less than the 2k rebates). Is anyone else seeing this type of shennanigans in their area?

Usually that tactic is only used when certain cars are in extremely high demand due to popularity and/or short supply. Neither applies to the Sonata right now IMO. OoooR...... Fayetteville, NC has a huge military population. Could it be that because Hyundai is offering a $1000 military rebate these dealers are looking to take advantage of their somewhat captive audience? If true, to me it would be the epitome of slimy ethics. It would be very interesting if this is happening in any other areas around large military reservations. If so, it should be brought to the attention of local media. I bet that would put a stop to that kind of crap.

Replying to: mitsin (Sep 01, 2008 1:01 pm)  Interestingly, my local Hyundai dealers seem to be holing the line on their advertised Sonata prices, even on Labor Day. One dealer's advertised price on the GLS AT was $17.5k, another said $16k but that included the $1,000 military discount. Not really very good prices compared to other parts of the country. |

Replying to: m6user (Sep 01, 2008 6:42 am) but we've always had dealers who take advantage of our young troops and their financial inexperience........I just thought that what the dealer did was kinda slimey |

I have decided to purchase a Sonata, most like the I4 as opposed to the V6 to save a little money and get a little bit better gas mileage. My dilemna is in the dealership that I've been thinking of buying from. Currently they are offering the Limited I4 Automatic with the DVD Navitgational system for under $21,000. That includes the current $2,000 rebate. That still puts their starting sale price about $2,000 under invoice. I would still need to pay the freight ($695), tags, and sales tax (3% in VA). Am I missing something here or is that price too good to be true? I'm not trying to look the gift horse in the mouth; I'm just trying to be cautious with whom I do business with. Thanks, Merg
