#25 of 244 Purchase of new Limited AWD 2007 Santa Fe by wannanewcar Dec 10, 2006 (9:36 pm)
Just signed contract for purchase of brand new 2007 Limited AWD Santa Fe. I think I got a decent deal but can anybody comment on this.   - Limited AWD 2007 Santa Fe Black exterior/Black interior - Touring and Premium packages - Floor mats   * Got all the above at invoice pricing   - Got the dealer rebate of $500.00 - Had to pay the normal destination charge of $650.00 - Allowed the dealer to get 350.00 above invoice pricing. - Dealer said I had to pay the $600.00 adv fee as it was   not negotiable (similar to the dest. charge)   * Total came to $28,946.00 Edmunds.com had the following   numbers:   MSRP: 30,980.00 INV: 28,529.00 TMV(NH): 29,843.00   Like I said I thought I did good, my only hesitation was the 600.00 advertising fee, but the dealer told me this was normal.   So how did I do??????

Replying to: wannanewcar (Dec 10, 2006 9:36 pm) Location/Availability/Service   If you got what you wanted, when you wanted it and are comfortable with the location for service go for it. Enjoy the ride. Many people claim to have gotten better deals but several that I have actually followed up on fell through for color, package, availability, blah blah blah. IMO anything under 1000 dollars is ok.   You already signed the contract. In the future I would recommend visiting a few dealers and pit them against each other.   I have my Limited AWD for 4 weeks now. You will not be disapointed, Trust me! Good Luck and enjoy...

Replying to: wannanewcar (Dec 10, 2006 9:36 pm) Before or after TTL?   On the other hand don't you love the black on black with Premium and touring? I have the exact model and love, love, love it! The black gives it a very sporty feel, don't you think? Upkeep another story!   Enjoy and don't stress about the price at this point!

Replying to: tidester (Jul 29, 2006 10:02 pm) I feel like I"m driving a much more expensive ride than the one I purchased for $23,500, an SE. I've been in friends cars, SUV's, etc. and can't say any are better than this Santa Fe. Even a friend's Lexus that I've taken trips in with them, I would stack the Santa Fe up with on at least even terms. The looks, the feel inside, and the ride, are all up to the standards of any luxury SUV of this size I"ve been in. I feel like a million bucks sitting high and pretty in this dynamic Santa Fe. Please God, I'm planning on keeping this baby for 10 years or 200,000 miles, whichever comes first. Hyundai obviously gets it.. a long list of high quality standard features. Maybe a small point to most, but even the stereo in the SE model is excellent. Fit and finish, quality of materials, all make for a joyous experience that I don't think will wear off for a long long time in what I think will be a long term love affair with this car. BTW, I paid $200 extra for the special white paint, and boy does this car look bigger and stand out. Alloy wheels and big tires look fantastic. Dual exhaust pipes. Real roof rails with crossbar. I didn't get the leather, because the cloth seems so durable and is comfortable in the hot climate I live in. I didn't get the sunroof and heated or power seat. All to save money. Hyundai package choices are so simple to decipher. Makes picking out the right car on the dealer lot so easy. I went in to dealer at 3:30 PM on Saturday to "check out" the Santa Fe. They had me test drive it, explained the whole car to me. I loved it and they had me out of my trade and in the new Santa Fe 07, all financed and ready to go by 6:30PM. I oouldn't believe it. I am overjoyed. Got many great compliments on it today in my travels around town and to visit friends. They love it. Hyundai has come a long way. Their were just so many reasons not to walk away without buying this car.
#32 of 244 daytime running lights by rcf8000 Dec 18, 2006 (11:38 am)
Does the 2007 Sante Fe come with daytime running lights? I've found that in some cars, there is a fuse missing in the fuse box, and if you put in a fuse, you get daytime running lights. Does anyone have any info? Thanks Replies to this message: solowalker (Dec 18, 2006 12:45 pm) pelican19 (Dec 18, 2006 3:13 pm) davesuv (Dec 18, 2006 3:54 pm)
#33 of 244 Daytime Running Lights by retiredpilot Dec 18, 2006 (12:10 pm)
Daytime running lights are mandatory in Canada and as I suspect Hyundai are not making a specific "Canadian" version, a pulled fuse wouldn't surprise me. IMHP daytime running lights should be compulsory everywhere. GM got this one right.

Replying to: rcf8000 (Dec 18, 2006 11:38 am) Daytime running lights should be mandatory only for people who drive whilst on their cell phones and looking at the Nav screen with a beer in the other hand and arguing with their kids who are watching a DVD in the back...   For sane drivers, they should be optional...
