Check out the link to the Nokian wr........they are great tires. OEM(what is standard on the Sonata) will not come close.

Go to the "T^irerack.com" there you can compare every tire and their performances. I do it everytime I need tires and have never been dissapointed . I oreder and have them sent to my local tire installer and viola I'm a happy camper.

4 cyl. SE model?

I am about to purchase a Limited and am starting to get cold feet and think I might prefer to save some money and get the SE. But my sense is that the SE's out there are not 4 cyl and the better deals are to be had on the the Limited. Any impressions?

There are probably more Limiteds out there than SE I4s, for example, Fitzmall shows 8 SE I4s and 33 Limited I4s available in inventory right now. Savings (again based on Fitzmall, Internet pricing) are approximately the same, factoring in the differences in price. So if you can find an SE, you should be able to get a good deal on one. Example: their lowest-priced SE I4 is $17,800, and their lowest priced Limited I4 is $20,169. (Prices include the general rebate but not special rebates--deduct those if you qualify.)

Thanks, Backy. I did go to Fitzmall and I saw that. Are these prices with all fees except tax or are there other fees on top? In trying to compare apples to apples OTD it gets really confusing. But I see Fitzmall has more SE's than some other places. I guess wherever I go I should factor in approx. 2k difference.

Driving Experience Ltd vs SE

Has anyone driven these two cars back to back and care to share your impressions? Yes, I know that I need to make this comparison myself -- I am just not always able to distill the experience on just a couple of tests esp. with the drama of the car dealership. I would really appreciate input from others on the "feel" of the two rides.
Thanks

Fog Lights for 2009 Hyundai Sonata GLS

I'm considering a purchase of a 2009 Sonata GLS but found that I can't get the fog lights installed as an option although it is offered for the 2009 SE and Limited. It used to be offered as part of the premium package. If Sonata doesn't offer is there an after market source which provides a kit and install for electrical wiring harness?

I think it would be best to direct questions about "what fees are included in your quoted price?" to the dealership, to ensure the most accurate response. I do know Fitzmall's Internet prices include the destination charge and any general rebates, but tax and (I suspect) doc fees and license fees are not included, which is pretty typical. You have to be careful, though, some dealerships "low ball" their published prices by not including the destination charge or by including rebates that are not available to everyone.

Yes, you are wise. I did e-mail them that very question and got it clarified. I think I have come to a deal with my local dealer which I think is very good and I can live with. It also gets my trade-in taken care of. Thanks a lot for the input everyone! Now to pick out a color!

Beige Leather??

Hi,
I am going to get my Limited tomorrow and I am planning on the red with beige. Anyone know how beige leather holds up in terms of not looking soiled over the course of a few years?
