Around $1500 under MSRP before rebates, which is several hundred under invoice, isn't a bad discount, but can be seen from recent posts there have been better deals elsewhere, e.g. the recent post about over $2000 under MSRP before rebates. Getting $3500 under MSRP before rebates, as billward suggests you shoot for, is nice if you can get it--but not typical. Still, you might want to shop around some more before pulling the trigger.

But right off the bat at Fitzmall, there's a White and a Willow Grey GLS I4 Auto for $15498+TTL. Take off the $4500 and she's at $10998+TTL. Both come with floormats at that price, and the Willow has Mud Guards. She can do substantially better with just a few minutes work. I didn't buy from Fitzmall, but my dealer (West Broad Hyundai, in Richmond Virginia, two hours from my home in Virginia Beach) beat them by a few pennies in the OTD price for our car. She should at least go armed with some of that information if she wants to get the best deal she can. She's starting in the $17620s.... and right there is $2122 she can save. Of course, she might not like those COLORS.... but the points the same, and some of the other cars aren't much more.

$15,498 + $3000 = $18,498, or a little more than $2000 under MSRP depending on how old it is and what the destination charge is. That is pretty far from $3500 off MSRP. But it's a good example that it can pay to shop around--it's around $600 less than the deal that was offered.

Backy, she's quoting 17620 for her quote, after the $3K rebate, but before her CARS rebate. This is $2122 less than what her dealer offered, with a few (Mats and Flaps) options as well. I'm unsure where you're getting the $600 less part. Is her original dealer quoting MSRP?

The original post said the offer from the buyer was about $1500 under MSRP, not accounting for the rebates; basically the dealer would be paying the taxes and fees. You remarked that was about $2000 too high, based on the deal you got on your car. My great math skills tell me that's an expectation of $3500 off MSRP.
 
The Fitzmall price you noted is about $2100 under MSRP, before rebate. Again using my fantastic math skills, $2100 - $1500 = $600.

I've been following the forum to get an idea for what i should offer for my next Sonata, but i am confused with all the figures in the last dozen or so pages. So, i am hoping someone could offer perspectives on the internet quotes I got from two dealers in the Chicago area.
 
I am interested in a 2009 Sonata GLS i4 Auto, with PEP. Two quotes I got:
 
1) MSRP: $21,650; Quote: $16,650 + TTL (no trade in)
2) MSRP: $21,900; Quote: $16,900 + TTL (no trade in)
 
I am not sure what the difference is b/w the MSRPs.
 
Are these reasonable quotes? how much more can i push this down?
 
Thanks in advance for the help!

Kansas, Olathe McCarthy Hyundai - they claim to be the lowest across US continent.
 
MSRP: 20720
 
Popular Package +650
Floor Mat +95
Carge Mat +95
 
MSRP Total with options: 21435
Invoice total including options: 20645 to start with:
Hyundai discount: -3000
Dealer discount: - 1990
 
Final: 15655
It'd have been 12155 with clunkers - their claim sees true so far. And they'll throw in an iPod cable also.

Be sure to check other dealers in the U.S. that publish their prices on the Web, e.g. Fitzmall. If you find a better price for a comparably-equipped car, they would naturally have to beat it, right?

Ok, so here is the breakdown of how it figured out. This is from a local dealer in Dallas.
 
Sonata GLS Auto + Popular Equipment Package + Carpeted Floor and Cargo Mat
 
$21460 including 720 for freight
-3000 Rebate
-3500 Clunker Program
-2000 Dealer Price Reduction
___________________
$12960 +TT&L
 
It wasn't too bad of a deal. I actually got offered a lower price by $200 from another dealer but with a color that we didn't like. We decided to pay the extra $200 for the color we preferred. This dealer wouldn't budge off of this price. We had a really hard time finding many of these in the Dallas area.
