#20 of 56 Accent + HD radio by litesong1 Jan 06, 2008 (12:18 am)
My wife woke up at 2am & said she wanted a new car & I had to get it for her. After driving a Vibe & Yaris, I was going to drive a Honda Fit & VW w/dual clutch tranny. On the way I stopped at the Eastside Hyundai dealer in Totem Lake, Washington & saw a 2008 two door Accent hatchback. After a limited test drive(got stuck in a traffic jam), the nice salesman offered $10,500 with lifetime oil changes without me saying anything. Got my wife, she liked the Accent & we bought. Total time from her 2am statement....16 hours.   My wife loves her Accent more every day.   The car had no radio(had speakers), but even that turned out to be a good deal. Later researching car radios, I found a high quality Dual HD radio w/I-pod input for $100. HD radio, you say? What's that? It is digital radio...extraordinary sound! Orchestras are crystal clear with huge amounts of detail. Instruments (& voice) are as you have never heard them. Previously, HD radio was expensive. But prices are plummeting downward, with my Dual head unit, JVC & others now coming out with radio integrated with HD tuners.To buy radio without HD radio is a big mistake if you have HD radio stations in your area. Reception in my fringe area(20+ to 50 miles way) is excellent. Get HD radio.

Replying to: thegraduate (Apr 28, 2008 9:32 am) OTD isn't very descriptive, as taxes on this vehicle would be from $100 to 1100 depending on state.   The 07 accent SE auto msrp 16000 wholesales used for about 11000 via kbb.com or others. A useful target on an 08 would be 20% over the wholesale price of a used one so the High 12's low 13's would be where you're at. If there is a fair amount of tax and reg you are in the ball park. If not or the cheaper 15400 manual tranny you have a bit to go.   --jjf   My folks are shopping for an Accent SE, and I'd like some updates and info please!

Replying to: jfritsch (Apr 28, 2008 8:26 pm) The offer ($14k) is without taxes, but with all fees. I guess it doesn't matter now - we didn't realize that the crash test results were not on par with the best in the class; this being my mom's car, my dad won't even consider it.

#25 of 56 Great Buy by vlbrooks Jun 12, 2008 (8:19 pm)
I just purchased an 08 Accent GS with no options in Oregon. Out the door only 7995$. I live in Washington so I had to pay the sales tax, lic, and registration fees in my state of 810$ for a grand total of 8805$. I would have wanted a/c but I couldnt pass up this one. This engine seems to rev at higher rpm than I am used too. In 5th at 60mph the engine will tach at 3k. Does this seem high or does anyone have any experience with an accent. thank you vince Replies to this message: marcogallo1986 (Jun 13, 2008 6:00 am)

#29 of 56 asking price sugguestions by whtchocla7e Jun 28, 2008 (7:16 pm)
I'm in the market for a new hyundai accent 2008 this coming month, july. I can wait a couple more months if that means a better deal, no problem.   I'm wondering what are some good asking prices I should stick to.   Here's what I'd like to get optimistically:   Accent GS manual, A/C, ABS - $11,000 OTD   Accent SE manual - $12,500 OTD.   Are these unreasonable? (considering the time of the year, availability and the models coming in the fall) or too high haha ?   Thanks.
