Is $17,690 a good out the door price for a 2006 Sonata GL with automatic transmission? This price includes the $500 Hyundai Rebate and the $1000 Hyundai Financing Rebate. We don't qualify for the loyalty rebate and we are not trading in a vehicle. Thanks for your thoughts.

Has anyone bought a car from Fitzmall, in Md. who lives in northern Pa.? Is it a big hassle? I checked their prices on 2006 GLS V6 and they are way under invoice, 17062 + TTL. Best price I have gotten in Pa. is 18300. This is a big difference. My concern would be insurance, title, etc., not to mention service, since I would be more than 300 miles from Fitgerald in Gaithersburg. How would the Hyundai service in Pa. treat me knowing I got the car in Md. Anyone have any ideas on any of this? Invoice with rebates is 17831. Any idea how Fitz is pricing at 17062? Sorry for all the questions, but I'm really confused.

Replying to: zen2 (Oct 25, 2005 9:43 pm) The shipping from MD to UT is what killed it for me. About $1,300 in a closed container insured. Your local Hyundai dealer will provide service because it's a major revenue generator for them. However, they probably will not go "above and beyond" for you like they would if you purchased the car from them. My strategy was to take the Fitz quote to my local dealer and give them a chance to compete against it. -Ty

Replying to: tyguy (Oct 26, 2005 7:43 am) That has been exactly opposite my experience. I own two Elantras and took them both to the dealer from which I purchased them for a long time. But I finally got fed up with their incompetence and their poor attitude re customer service that I switched to another dealer for service, actually one that is closer to me. I have had much better service from them, not perfect, but I get the feeling they are at least interested in providing good service. Maybe they see an opportunity here: "He bought these Hyundais from another dealer, maybe if we treat him well he'll buy his next Hyundai from us." Just a thought. Besides, if you buy a car from out of town, how does your local dealer know you didn't just move into town and started coming to them for service? Are they going to treat you poorly because you decided to come to them for service? I don't think so.

We purchased our car on 10/22/2005 in Houston, TX. It is a Bright Silver Sonata LX with Pkg.3 (Sunroof and CD Changer) $24,895.00 MSRP $ 199.00 (Price of Tint b4 Negotiations) $23,439.00 Invoice (includes a $600 Advertising fee) $22,500.00 Sale Price + $ 100.00 Tint + $ 1,293.75 Tax (6.25%) + $ 242.51 Fees - $ 500.00 Manufacturer Rebate - $ 1,000.00 HMFC Rebate - $ 400.00 Graduation Rebate ___________________________ $22,236.26 Final Price I wish I would have waited this week. I noticed that the rebates went up from $500 to $1000 on the LXs as well. Also, I wish I would have owned a Hyundai before to get the $1000 loyalty rebate. This would have brought the drive-out price to $20,736.26. Ohh well...it seems like I got a good deal anyways...any feedback??? Thanks.

Replying to: backy (Oct 26, 2005 8:19 am) In this case, Zen2 has already visited the PA dealers and received quotes. They know Zen2 didn't just move into town already owning a Sonata. Sounds like your experiences have been different, but the dealers I have purchased vehicles from have certainly given me special treatment, with freebies and car loaners when they didn't have too. They've worked hard to make me a repeat buyer. Dealer service is obviously going to vary depending on the management and workers, but in talking with the establishments I've patronized, they readily admit to providing extra service for people who buy vehicles from them. Anyway, that's beside the point. My main argument was that Zen2 will still be serviced by the local dealers no matter where the car is purchased from, and Fitz has a good reputation for easy purchases at extremely aggressive rates.
