Re: 2010 Elantra GLS Price offered [ashgautam] by sachin24k

just to clarify, i did not buy the car, as I did not like it. Steering wheel is quite hard even 35mph! inside city. Not used to it. Drive is quite un-enjoyable (personal opinion only)
 
But anyways, the dealer almost killed himself to sell the car.
 
2010 Elantra GLS black, all power package, bluetooth,floormats PZEV, automatic. (sorry, no sunroof, because he did not have any, in black)
 
Final offered price was $13880 - 800 (no sunroof) + 300 (bluetooth) = $13380. I am not sure if he included destination or not, but I anyways would not have paid it and of course, tax and ttl extra.
 
one more catch with this offer is you have to finance thro Hyundai which is expensive. I had a local lender who offered 1.6% lesser than them also GAP was expensive by $8 per month.
 
This is in a southern CA dealership. I think the trick is if you do not buy it the same day, they will call you day after and agree to your offer (this is my guess)

Did you get the purple Elantra, by chance?

Bad sales experience by bytesnooper

The salesperson was a lying crook and ripped me off. I had
Bought a half dozen new cars before buying the elantra and was to trusting, because
Everyone else stated a price and that what the contract stated.
 
He said that he would sell me the 2005 Elantra for 11,500.00 and he put on the contract
12,500.00 and Unfortunately I signed the contract because the bottom line didn’t
look out of place. The contacts are intentionally complicated and confusing.
Only discovered it a week later. So I had to eat it. Told everyone off at the dealership
And will never buy another Hyundai again. They changed there name from
Hustedt Hyhundai to Mid_island Hyundai. On long island.

Why don't you write to the Hyundai motor co. and tell them about it. You will probably not get your money back, but at least it will be a black mark against them.The dealers must get a good rating to keep a franchise.

Talk To Owner by sandman_6472

Write a letter to the owner. I was in a similar situation back in 1997 and was charged $900.00 more than the advertised price. Guy at work knew the owner and said to write a letter. I did and within a week I went to pick up the refund check at the dealership. Found out later the wife had read my letter first and she had her husband agree with her to get me the refund. Try it...worked for me. Just state the facts in a nice way and appeal to the owners sense of fair play...they'll most likely do it as a good will gesture.
Good luck and let me know how it works out.

So if you want OTD at $10k, you are looking to buy the car for a little over $9k. KBB value on this car, assuming a GLS automatic, is $11,555 private-party value in Excellent condition, $9,955 in Fair condition, and up to $13,305 retail in Excellent condition, in Phoenix. Is this the car at Camelback Hyundai? It appears to be the lowest priced 2008 Elantra in the area with a moonroof. If you can do w/o a moonroof, the same dealer has a 2008 with only 10k miles for about $9700. That's a lot of warranty left! You might try dealing on that one to see if you can get it OTD for $10k. I think it will be tough to get the one with the moonroof for $10k... but you can always make an offer. How often can you use a moonroof in Phoenix, anyway?

Thanks for the response! Yeah its the one at camelback hyundai. I really want a moonroof, thats the main reason I like that one. I have an 07 accent hatch right now and want to get an automatic 4 door with moonroof now. My old 95 maxima had a moonroof and I loved it, I used it all the time. Its nice to let in a little bit of light, or to crack open in the hot summer to let the heat escape. Right now its cold here so its perfect to have open with the heater on!
