#735 of 5169 Re: 2006 Hyundai Sonata LX with Pkg. 3 [egarcia52282] by tyguy Oct 26, 2005 (9:50 am)
Replying to: egarcia52282 (Oct 26, 2005 9:22 am) Nearly a $1,000 below invoice. Good job! In terms of the extra rebate this week, it's difficult to predict what the manufacturer is going to do, so don't beat yourself up over it. For all we know the rebate could become even more appealing next week, or disappear altogether. Forget about it and enjoy that new Sonata!   -Ty Replies to this message: egarcia52282 (Oct 26, 2005 11:40 am)

Replying to: tyguy (Oct 26, 2005 9:50 am) Thanks Ty...   I'm already enjoying the Sonata. It's a great car...Hyundai really hit the nail on this one.   As for the extra in the rebate, I called my dealership to see if there is anything they could do for this. Hopefully, they can compensate me in some way for this change, but I'm not going to be holding breath.
#737 of 5169 Sonata Prices: Fitz Auto Mall by hotch41 Oct 26, 2005 (12:01 pm)
I just looked at their website and their prices for a base LX (no sunroof & no 6 disc changer) is $18,792 and for the Pkg. 3 LX is $20,070! That is about $5K off MSRP. I realize there are rebates out there, but these discounts are pretty unbelievable. What do you all think is going on?? Since they have been introduced, I've maybe seen a half dozen or so on the road. Is the car not selling well? At these prices, who cares about resale value? Is Hyundai concerned that the Sonata is not the big hit it was hoping for? I don't understand since, according to the NHTSA, it's one of safest cars on the road today. Thoughts please. Thanks!

Replying to: hotch41 (Oct 26, 2005 12:01 pm) In the past, the Sonata was not too competitive with the best cars in its class. With the redesign, it is now competitive but it's still a new model. Also I think public perception re Hyundai's quality and reliability has lagged the improvements made over the past few years. And Hyundai buyers are used to getting big discounts and rebates. The Sonata's price jumped up with the redesign, also. And it's a brutal market out there, with so many good mid-sized cars to compete with, almost all of which are heavily discounted (e.g. today's ad: $6000-7000 off the Mazda6, in my town). So I think it's a number of things. Take advantage of the situation!

Replying to: hotch41 (Oct 26, 2005 12:01 pm) Well there is a 1K rebate going on with the V6 models plus a 1K incentive if you finance through Hyundia finance. That's a good portion of the discount .. Replies to this message: zen2 (Oct 27, 2005 6:40 pm)

Replying to: tyguy (Oct 25, 2005 7:34 am) what were the headroom issues? Replies to this message: tyguy (Oct 27, 2005 8:04 am)

Replying to: buyasonata (Oct 27, 2005 7:34 am) Like most vehicles, the Sonata sunroof drops the headliner down roughly a couple of inches. It's most noticeable in the Sonata from the back seat. When sitting in the back seat and looking forward, you can see a noticeable drop in the headliner just in front of your face that continues all the way forward.   -Ty

Replying to: chrono (Oct 27, 2005 6:31 am) But even after the discounts they are 800 to 1000 under invoice. How do they make money doing this?

Replying to: hotch41 (Oct 26, 2005 12:01 pm) I would like you to provide me website, phone no., address for this dealer. So that I can make a better deal with local dealer or atleast buy from your dealer. I almost bought it today for $21,000.00 but held off. I test drove LX it's excellent. Your immediate response would be greatly appreciated.   Thank you. Replies to this message: kyfdx (Oct 28, 2005 3:43 am) mtice1979 (Oct 28, 2005 7:47 am)
#744 of 5169 Market Adjustment by bgle Oct 27, 2005 (7:35 pm)
On a trip from SC to Tulsa OK a three weeks ago, a few 06 Sonata's passed us and my wife & I liked the looks so while in Tulsa I visited the dealer. All their Sonata's had an add on of $ 1,500.00 for "Market Adjustment. On my return to Columbia, SC I visited the local dealer and there it is again. This time it was $2,000.00 Market adjustment, plus paint treatment, fabric treatment, Window tint and Wheel locks (just under $1,000.00). First I will never pay a "Market Adjustment" and you are now in the Cam/Cord price range with similar equipment. This was really a turn off.   Has anyone run into this "Market Adjustment"?
