Here's my story: After testing a 08 Civic LX 4 dr auto and enduring young condescending saleskid, I went back to Toyota dealer. Eastern PA everything but moonroof and alloys. (6 cd changer which I don't need but came in regional package) MSRP 18520 Vehicle + dest. 16100 + TTL I'm satisfied Civic too edgy for me, saleskid said 'you'll get used to not seeing the hood while driving.' Door Entry/exit too low, didn't like digital guages. MP3 jack only regret. Like Eugene Levy in Vacation movie 'You think you hate it now, just wait until you drive it.'

Replying to: netan (Dec 22, 2007 2:01 pm) An elantra was offered to me with all the same features and more for an out the door price of about 17500. - Burl at Hub Hyundai. Very nice man. I kept looking because it had more on it than I wanted...I have been able to find a Corolla CE with BE and UP and Keyless entry for 15100+TTL. I hope that's a good deal!! Hub Hyundai couldn't match that price and it wouldn't have been reasonable for them to do so since the CE I'm getting didn't have cruise control, fog lights...even floor mats. Anyway, all that to say, you maybe should visit a Hyundai dealership and get a quote on the Elantra with those items. Your salesman will tell you that the Elantra is not as good and the Corolla will last forever, just point out the Elantra has a better warranty and ask them what they can do. It's only about 500 bucks off so they should work with you after that. Or get an elantra, they are very nice cars, maybe next time for me

I just started researching compact cars for my husband and based on the rebates being offered, the Corolla seems like the best value for the money....but after reading some of the posts I'm wondering if I'll get even MORE value for my money if I wait until the 2009s come out. This latest rebate for $1,500 on the CE "ends" on 1/2/08, but then again it looks there was already a rebate for $1,000 on the CE which "ended" in October (unless I misread the posts and that was for the 2007 CE). Should I wait for even more rebates and deals? It seems odd that the 2009 would hit the dealer lots in February when the all the dealer websites I checked out (I'm in the DFW area) show that their lots are FILLED with the 2008 Corolla CEs?! I don't want to miss a good deal, but I also don't want to buy too early if there really will be some serious deals happening after Feb. when the 2009s hit. Should I buy or should I wait?

On December 24th I purchased a loaded Corolla S for $15,444 plus TT&L (after rebate) from Longo Toyota. This car had a MSRP of $19,500. I'm from Orange County, CA and wanted the car for my daughter's Christmas present. I could not make a deal with any of the local dealers in my area after 3 days of trying. I then decided to look at Longo which is 55 miles from my house. To my surprise I made the deal over the telephone in less than 5 minutes at a great price. I used Longo's Internet Dept. and dealt with David Cheng. I was even more surprised at the level of service the dealership provided, no hard sell on low jack, extended warranties, alarm systems, etc. I would have to say it was the most pleasureable car buying experience I've had. Needless to say my daughter was thrilled on Christmas morning when she saw the car in the driveway. |
