Replying to: backy (May 30, 2008 5:46 pm) I hope you are right about Aug/Sept on the 2009 sedan. I can't wait to see it.

Replying to: backy (May 30, 2008 5:46 pm) Today I phoned 2 Hyundai dealers here in N Cal. and asked when they expect the 2009 Elantra sedan. One said November the other said Sept./Oct. Replies to this message: backy (Jun 30, 2008 7:47 pm) inharmsway (Jul 16, 2008 8:12 pm)

Replying to: inharmsway (Jun 30, 2008 4:23 pm) I've gotten so many different answers over the years to "When is X car due?" that now I believe it when I see them on the lot. Replies to this message: inharmsway (Jul 16, 2008 8:12 pm)
#114 of 269 Elantra sales up 51% in June by backy Jul 01, 2008 (1:43 pm)
Elantra sales are surging, helping HMA to its best sales month ever. Which is remarkable given that almost every other automaker except Honda had a sales decline in June:   http://www.theautochannel.com/news/2008/07/01/091631.html

I too have been asking around my area (OH, PA, WV) and even talked to their publicity guy, but also could not get a firm answer on when the '09s will arrive. From what I've been able to glean from the 2 dozen or so sites that I visit, the answer is pretty much the same as above. My dilemma is whether to wait or buy now. From what I understand, there are many cosmetic changes for the better, but I'm sure we will not see the price ranges that we are seeing here. My heart is in the Touring, but that won't come until after the sedan. There is no compelling need for me to buy now, since I have an Envoy SUV that will not be a welcomed trade vehicle at my friendly Hyundai dealer so I can afford to wait. Since this site has been "dead" for a couple weeks now, I thought maybe some of you could offer your opinion on "buy now" or "wait".

Replying to: pano1 (Jul 02, 2008 5:28 pm) I don't even think there's a comparison, if you can afford to wait, ALWAYS wait. You'll end up with better resale, improvements, etc. Now the one major issue is that waiting for a good price also means waiting 3-4 months after model release. Similar to how the 2009 Sonata wasn't worth buying on the cheap until May-June period.

Replying to: pano1 (Jul 02, 2008 5:28 pm) moocow brings up a good point- there probably won't be really good deals out there for a little while after the new elantras hit the dealers. i don't think the deals would be as good as they are now either- why would they? people are buying elantras like crazy. i know the dealer i bought from stopped going so low on prices since they didn't have to.   i was in a similar situation as you- i didn't need to buy now, but if the right deal came along i would. the pics of the touring does appeal to me but i doubt i would get it for 14700 before TTL like i did the SE. that's why i got the 08 SE- the deal was right!   good point about your trade in. hopefully gas prices settle a little so you could get at least something for your suv. there are a couple dealers here who are major low balling trades with suvs since no one is buying them.   as moocow said, if you can wait, then wait; however, my $.02 is don't expect similar prices as now or a month or so ago. if you get a good price, that's just an added bonus.   enjoy!
#118 of 269 Elantra Hybrids by kentavos22 Jul 09, 2008 (2:14 pm)
There is a lot of talk out there about the upcoming Elantra Hybrids that will be hitting Korean streets in 2009. The biggest news is that they will be using Lithium Polymer batteries.   I hadn't really thought about the possibilty, but now I'm drooling over the idea of a hybrid version of the Touring. I hope they announce some time table for the states. It'll have to be progressive to keep up with Chevy's Volt and all of the other eletric cars slated to hit the market in 2010.

Replying to: kentavos22 (Jul 09, 2008 2:14 pm) It would have to be expensive to keep up with the Volt. Volt is expected to cost more than $40,000

Replying to: backy (Jun 30, 2008 7:47 pm) The biggest Hyundai dealer here in N. California has no more SE's only GLS's, and that number is going down. So maybe we do not have to wait too long before the 2009 sedan shows up.
