#8813 of 8853 2013 Sonata SE 2.4L for $20,967 OTD, too cheap? by mtndew7

Feb 12, 2013 (6:15 pm)

Hello,
 
I'm planning and buying 2013 Sonata SE 2.4L, and I got an offer from dealer A at $20,967 OTD. Isn't it too cheap? I mean, it's better if it's cheap, but at the same time, kind of makes me suspicious about it. And, dealer B offered $22,236 OTD.
 
It seems like dealer A is pretty good size, they had total 165 sonata, and had 19 SE trim.
 
Should I just go head buy or should be careful about this?

I think you are answering your own questions. I would be leery of that OTD price. Is there a trade involved? Is it a demo? I'd buy one at that price!

Hi mtndew!
 
What are your prices before tax and title since each state and county are different? And what dealers did you get those pricings from? It is really hard to tell by OTD when we don't know the state tax.

Hello pegasus17,
 
yea that was the first price which I didn't even expect to offer. No, trade-in is not involved nor any other things. It's just buying a new car. I'm not sure if it's demo or not, but people say it could be demo, I guess I should check it.

Hello maureen14,
 
Thank you for your answer. Actually, I don't know the price before tax and stuff, because that was the price he offered me at the first time as a OTD. I live in Greenville, SC, and I think tax is $300 flat.

Wow. $300 in taxes is awesome. I am in NY and we pay something like 8.6% which comes out to a lot! If you do the numbers that Steve has written about with taking 3% of MSRP, subtracting that from the invoice price and then taking off all incentives or between 1500 and 2000- then that seems to be what a lot of people are able to get the sonata at. Although, I have seen people getting even better than that. Does the car have any extras? If your tax is only $300, you might even be able to get lower than that if you figure it out.

Hello, maureen14
 
Yea, I didn't realize the tax $300 that we have is really good.
And here is the detail price they offered me.
 
internet sale price: $20,280 (with MSRP $24,370)
this price includes freight handling fee $775
+closing fee $349 (what is closing fee, btw? is it doc fee?)
+SC sales tax $300
+SC tag fee $39
total: 20,968 OTD
 
It seems to be great deal to me as long as they are not demo.

That closing fee is really just another way of adding money to the price. If you go back to like September-October posts from last year, Steve explains a lot of things about purchasing. They are on like page 423 or so. They are really helpful. Good Luck with your purchase.
