You are in the Hyundai Elantra Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens
I was rather surprised to see in looking through the Atlanta paper's web site that there are a couple of local dealers offering Elantra SE's for an amount just north of $21,000.00. Obviously there are major dealer add-ons, but I hate to see this sort of inflation on an affordable car. Those prices are running it up into the Sonata / Optima range.

| I'm betting the price run up is due to the popularity of this car since it's been so highly rated by Consumer Reports and a few others. And, it's a dealer... they will always try to get the most they can by adding on all sorts of stuff. Also, there always seem to be some people who will pay too much because they don't know how to negotiate. | |
Just bought an '08 SE in the Dallas area. I was impressed with all the good reviews and the Consumer Reports recommendation, so I am really surprised at how few SEs are out there (in N. TX, anyway). Lots of loaded GLS models on every lot, but most dealers I checked had 0 SEs, and none more than 2. I asked everywhere and was told that the low stock wasn't due to inventory selling out quickly; they just never had (m)any to begin with. Plus, it seemed like the dealer was happy for me to take it off their hands; their initial offer was below MSRP and TMV. You'd think Hyundai would try to capitalize on the CR Top Pick.
