I recently purchased a Limited FWD with the Ultimate Package for $32655 ($700 below invoice) including $500 competitive bonus and $500 military discount. They went a little low on my trade (loaded 03 Tahoe 4WD) at $16,300, but it was still in the ball park of what I expected. So, out the door I paid right at $17k. I felt that was pretty good, since another dealer had offered to do the same deal (for a AWD model) for $23k + TTL. The delivery was pretty crappy though - they had to do a pickup about 50 miles away, and I gave them about 6 hours to prep the car. When I got there the e-brake had mud on it, and the seats had grease stains. I was not happy with that and went off on the salesman/manager. There were also some scratches on the door sills, and a screw was missing from the footrest under the e-brake. I'm not sure how much of that is from the factory and how much was from the dealer. They eventually got it cleaned to my specs, and ordered 3 new door sills (the rear VC brushed aluminum plates and driver's side plastic sill). The manager apologized, and he'll give me a tank of gas when I go back to get the sills replaced, and my first service will be free as well. I was happy with that. The vehicle itself is OK - we wanted something better on gas than our Tahoe, and this certainly is. However, I'm a little unhappy in a few areas. First, the 3500 lb tow rating is limited to only 2 pax in the vehicle, which stinks. Next, the DVD player is really far back, so when you're watching a movie it's right up in your face (my kids have to crane their necks to see it). Also, the memory settings don't apply to the pedals/radio presets. The front seats are comfortable, but the arm rests seem too far away to rest your elbows comfortably on long rides. Lastly, there's no way to customize the vehicle via a computer interface (set door locking/light settings, etc). Despite missing a screw, the quality is very good - the interior is 100x better than our Tahoe. Handles well too.

| I am in the market for a SE but hate to buy right now with no rebates, incentives, or any type of year end discount. The Santa Fe has a $1000 rebate and many of the other auto makers have been doing pretty good deals to move out the cars on the lot and make room for 2008's. I am leaning toward waiting for the 08's. I figure the price shouldn't change much, and better than having a year old car as soon as I take it off the load. What do you guys(gals) think? | |

The changes (standard equipment) to the 2008 Limited model is great news! All of the below are now standard. Does anyone know how this will affect the price. I assume we are going to see an increase? NEW EQUIPMENT HIGHLIGHTS FOR 2008 · LG navigation system · Previously optional equipment on Limited model, now standard o Memory settings for power driver seat, exterior mirrors and steering wheel o Power tilt/telescopic steering wheel o Adjustable gas and brake pedals o Proximity key with immobilizer o Rain-sensing wipers o 115-volt power outlet o Lighted door scuff plates · Power tailgate and 115-volt outlet now available on SE mode

Replying to: spratman (Jul 13, 2007 4:54 am) I'm happy with the cost. As for the 08s, there will always be something better/cooler that comes out - since the 07s took so long to come out, I wouldn't expect the 08s to hit dealers until Dec or so. Even then, based on the reviews it's getting, I think the VC is going to pick up momentum, and there will soon be little to no incentives on this vehicle. I'm pretty well convinced that they'll just get more expensive (especially with NAV, more options, etc). |

Has anybody heard when the 2008's are suppose to be on the lots? I am currently waiting for my local dealer to find me an '07 AWD Limited (no package beyond Limited), but I am in no real rush. My local dealer is saying December, but he did not really apper to be stating fact, more trying to keep me in the buying mode now. Your information and opinions would be appreciated.

I went to Terrell, Tx. to Randal Noe Hyundai on saturday. They were offering the Veracruz Limited MSRP $36,300 for $30,995 using the ballon financing. Take the July 14th saturday add. out of the Dallas Morning News. They offered me this price on any of their Limited models at the same price. I think they had 5, two liquid Silver, Black, Beige, Bronze. You need to get with the internet sales person. Im in negotiation with the wife, lol, about purchasing one this week. Best numbers ive found in the DFW metroplex.
