Title fees seem to vary by dealer. Another dealer quoted me $229, but had a higher overall price and would not budge.
You know you're from Massachusetts when you drive 45 minutes to New Hampshire to save $5 in sales tax.

Maybe we're using different terminology. Most places have a dealer conveyence fee. Are you including that in the term "title fee?" In CT, unfortunately not far behind MA in taxes (& hidden taxes called something else), title fee is charged by the state ($20 or $25) to issue and maintain a title regardless of make or model of anything else. Title fee does not vary from dealer to dealer (unless they try to rip you off by charging an add on to process the title papers in addition to the other paper work they charge you for).
Focus on the bottom line. I bought my car in FL, paid $1500-1600, after taxes & all fees, less than local CT dealer wanted. Yet, FL dealer's conveyence fee was $80 higher. Same 6% sales tax.

Well, they don't sell every one for that low a price. But dealers, for whatever reason, sometimes do sell a car for many thousands below a normal price. I don't know why. Maybe to win a contest? between 55% and 75% of MSRP is doable on Hyundais and Kias with no trade and no dealer pacs.

I suppose. What gets me is when someone in these forums names the dealership so others can go there (many from another state which I find mind-boggling) so they can get the same "great" deal! Following that train of thought, the dealer would def go out of business giving all these great deals to folks who frequent edmunds.....

It's for buyers that currently own a Hyundai vehicle.

Go test drive a car. Talk with the salespeople. Be polite. Tell them you will buy it today if the price is right, but do not appear desperate for the car. Then offer whatever price you want to pay for the car. If each person who comes out tells you no, then go on to the next dealership.
Repeat.
Eventually you'll get lucky or tired enough to pay what they want.

November Incentives?

Since the incentives for October expired yesterday, does anyone have any idea about this month's incentives? Nothing is posted on the Hyundai website as of yet, just the ones that expired 10/31/05. I'm curious to see if the deals for the V6 Sonata's will get even better. Thanks again for your input.

From what I've seen, it's usually 2 or 3 days into the new month when they reveal what the corresponding new incentives are. They'll probably have them up by the end of the week.
Perhaps they like to see what the final sales numbers are for the previous month (to gauge the incentive effectiveness) before they make a final decision on how to proceed in the new month? Just a guess.

My local Hyundai dealer called me three times during this past week trying to get me to buy the '06 Sonata. They even called me last night (Oct 31), so sales must be really down for them to put forth that much effort to make a sale. I'm not sure that the Sonata is the right choice for me and I want to see the Azera first. But the dealer was ready to offer me almost anything to make a sale. Too bad I wasn't ready to pull the trigger just yet. He mentioned the incentives and my reply was that there will always be another deal down the road.... and there will be.
