2009 hyundai rebates expiration? is this a good deal... by markm75

Does anyone have any inside info if the $3000 rebate will stay the same or increase after its nov 2nd expiration...
 
My local hyundai dealer in PA is offering a 2009 (new one) which has a msrp of 26,515 for 21,318 (includes the $3000 rebate)..
 
I've heard that they basically make $3000 using the rebates (the dealer).. so i'm wondering if i should try to get them down a little more (this is the v6 SE version, but it doesnt have bluetooth, does have cloth interior etc).
 
The best interest rate, given my mostly good, but high ratio credit history is about 7.63 (a bit too high, forcing a 72 month payment of around $400 with no money down, IE: i can get an AWD equinox 2010 for $78 more per month, this seems too high).
 
The dealer also said they could install a bluetooth radio (surely at an added cost, not sure if its the same as what the factory would install?)
 
Any thoughts or tips?

That does not sound like a rock bottom deal. I just bought a 2009 Limited v6 for $400 more than what they are offering the SE to you (the MSRP on mine was $27,665). I would try to get them to come down some more.
 
The Huyndai bluetooth (blueconnect) is not a fully integrated system. It is mounted in the ceiling where the sunglass holder would be. This is a port installed option, so the dealer can put it in and it fits perfectly. The only problem is that is is independent of the stereo system, so when you get a call you have to mute your radio. It has it's own speaker, so the sound does not come through the car stereo. It works pretty well and serves my purposes, but just keep in mind that it is not fully integrated. It was a $295 option on my Sonata, so make sure that they don't charge you more than that.
 
Good luck!

Nice, thanks for that tip on the msrp and bluetooth.. i was hoping the bt was like the one that is integrated in the equinox.. oh well.. i use a moto headset, works fine though.
 
Sounds like they may be about $1200 too high, which is what i figured.
 
I'm not good at getting them to come down in prices.. i can mention that i know of some that have gotten the limitted series at the price they are offering.. maybe that will help.. or mention they are making $3k either way via rebates..
 
The limitted has the dual zone auto air conditioning doesnt it? IE: set it to 72 and it just runs (like my grand prix)?
 
Perhaps i could get a deal on a limited that had this feature at your msrp example/sale price.

Not sure what part of PA you are in, but I also live in PA (Johnstown area) and we purchased two Hyundais last year. We ended up buying from a dealer by my sister in DC/VA because at the time, none of the dealers within a two hour drive of Johnstown would go lower than invoice minus rebates, and even that was tough to get! This PA market area doesn't seem to be as competitive as other markets so dealers around here are not as discount happy as others may be.

How do you figure the dealer is making $3k after the rebates? Markup on Sonatas including the holdback isn't anywhere near $3k. And wasn't their quote less than MSRP even before rebates were applied?

by that I meant the dealer gets $3000 either way. Not that they necessarily make that in profit
 
so anyone care to conjecture what will happen w the rebates after nov 2nd. Stay same. Go away increase etc

Yes, the Limited has dual zone auto climate control. It also has leather, auto dimming mirror, Infinity sound system and sunroof. Please keep in mind that my deal was on a 2009 model. If you can find one in your area, you should try to get the same deal. No difference between the '09 and '10 models.

2010 Hyundai Sonata Limited I4 Price Paid by gbh0726

I was traded in a 2007 Hyundai Sonata with 58,000 miles. The 2007 needed brakes but had the sunroof, hubcap rims, had the I4 engine, and xm radio. Owed $9,100 and this is all I wanted on trade in value.
 
Purchased a 2010 Hyundai Sonata Limited I4. Did not want navigation or bluetooth. Car was power white pearl had floor mats included. I did not qualify for military or college rebates. Dealer went to $23,100.00. This also included the $500.00 Hyundai loyalty rebate. I also finance with Hyundai Motor Finance for 1.9% over 72 months. I gave up the $1,000 rebate from Hyundai by doing this. I paid title tax and tags out of pocket.

Purchased a 2009 Hyundai Sonata Limited I4 with navigation for 21K + Tax+ DMV+Doc fee (55) (Bay area). I am not sure if the price is good and the vehicle quality. However, the edmunds forum information has been a good part of my decision towards this purchase. Thanks for all the postings.

Congratulations on your new Sonata. I got the same car in April for $21.7, so I think you did pretty well. As for the quality, I'm sure you'll be pleasantly surprised. We've had four Hyundais in the last nine years and each has been great.
One Web reviewer said this of the Sonata: "It feels like a quality car, and not in a cheap way". By which I assumed he meant it felt like Hyundai had not used cheap measures in the car in an effort to imitate quality.
