Replying to: ktv1969 (Jun 13, 2009 4:34 pm) As to the price, I got 4cyl GLS, automatic, with floor mats, iPod cable, mudguards, and the optional equipment package (the one without sunroof) for 16,700$ OTD in MA. |

I thought it is standard practice to give the customer a free tank of gas when you take delivery of the car. That why I was surprised that I did not get it. My salespeson was just an air head. She did not do anything when she gave me the key. She just gave me the key and said here you go. I recall Honda and Toyota would take their time going over the service manual, tire warranty pamphlets, etc. I probably got a bad salesperson. Great yob on your price.

Replying to: ktv1969 (Jun 14, 2009 10:35 am) As far as my price goes, I have made a deal on a Friday, for 17,600$ OTD (I have not payed yet). But over the weekend, I started thinking that this was a bad price. On Monday, I went to another dealer with a check made out to them. I dangled the check in front of them, and they proposed 16,663$. I went out, called the other dealer, and told them that I can only pay 16,700$ for my car. To my surprise they agreed without any argument. I guess they knew that I am slipping away, and my delivery was scheduled for 3:00pm.  This was the first time I have pulled something like this off, but it taught me something about buying cars. It sounds as if you got a bad dealership. If you ever get any survey, you should make it clear. As far as I understand, dealers that score high on customer satisfaction get extra incentives from Hyundai. If your dealer did not do a good job, they should not get the incentives.

With pricing being very competitive, sometimes it comes down to other reasons to buy a car from a particular dealer. |

Replying to: mrukz (Jun 14, 2009 11:23 am) That type of thinking goes back at least 40 years. Dealers don't care whether they get cash or if the car is financed. The money is the same. In fact most dealers who "help in the financing" get a piece of the finance charges. For this reason, most dealers prefer financing over cash. They just keep playing the "cash price" game with those who think they will get a better price for "cash." |

Replying to: sudhakar (Jun 13, 2009 11:03 am) "North Freeway Hyundai's 2 for 1 Sale worked so well it's back AND we've made it even better!! Now you don't have to be a Hyundai owner and we're talking 2009s, not 2008s. Buy any new 2009 Hyundai Sonata and get a new 2009 Hyundai Accent for $1.00. That's not a misprint; One US Dollar! Really, that's it. No tricks. As a matter of fact here's the fine print: When you purchase any new 2009 Hyundai Sonata at Dealer’s list price, you will receive a new 2009 Hyundai Accent (Dealer List Price $10,960.00) for $1. The customer is responsible for all fees and taxes on both vehicles (by the way, that’s less than $600 on the Accent). You can finance with us, your own bank or pay cash; we don't care! You can trade in a car! You don't have to own a Hyundai! You substitute the Accent for an Elantra, just pay the difference. Offer is valid while supplies last or June 30th, 2009 whichever comes first. There are a limited number of these models remaining in inventory, so hurry! Go to www.HoustonHyundai.com for complete details. There won't be anything there that you won't like. Sincerely, (I deleted his name here because of the policy) Certified Sales Professional North Freeway Hyundai www.nfhyundai.com" And here the info for Champion Hyundai Champion Hyundai 12211 Gulf Freeway Houston, TX 77034 Here is the quote he gave me a while back (1/15/09) 2009 Sonata GLS Auto MSRP: $20,285 Discount: $1,730 MFG Rebate: $2,000 Owner Loyalty Rebate: $1,500 Price: $15,055 plus TT&L DriveOut: $16,225 including TT&L If you don't own a Hyundai, the owner loyalty rebate may not apply. But the manufacture rebate is $3000 now instead of $2000, so you should be able to get the Sonata at this price or just a little bit more.

Why you ask? 1. I hate hubcaps with a passion and want rims. Yes I can get a GLS then pay for rims but don't want the hassle. Price I was quoted was. $17,138 My understanding is that this is just the 3k off as I do not qualify for the other discounts. I am thinking this is a good price but want to hear other opinions so please fire away. |
