Go to Truecar.com and look up your car. It should show you a price. Then take off the rebates and you should know what you will be paying.

My dealer worked with TrueCar and she even beat the price that TrueCar gave me. Then I got $2500 in rebates (applied to the down payment). I got $2k for the Limited Hybrid and another $500 for being a current Hyundai owner. So overall I saved around $5500 off the MSRP and it was well below invoice.

 

I've been testing the trade waters as the Red Sled has gotten up there in miles. Had guy in the Cities looking to do 23,900 (straight payoff for my current car, all rebates applied, plus loyalty $500). It was Harbor Grey (not my fav color) but was a Limited Turbo with standard package. Seemed like a warm deal for me...any thoughts on this?

Also at the new dealership in B-Ville, they are due to get a Ruby Red SE turbo w/o sunroof. Have been seeing these go for around 22K. I wonder if I could get them down to 21K and payoff my car?

I really want a sunroof but Ruby Red SE w/ Nav turbos are friggin expensive.

 

2013 sonata se 2.4 no other options other than lip spoiler. MSRP 24,500, paid 19,560 + 250 dealer fees and 7 percent Indiana sales tax. Included hyundai rebate and 500 bucks military incentive. Actually took very little haggling. Drove 2 hours away to Superior Hyundai in Cincinatti Oh.

 

2011 Sonata GLS 20,xxx miles

$12,900

Got it a few days ago. Car is great.

 

19806 for 2013 GLS with sticker of 23220 (price included $2000 in rebates), I got rear spoiler, mud guards, ccargo net. Price did not include sales tax, 8.25%, document fee or registration

 

Bought two Sonatas at the same time.

My wife and I both needed new cars so we bought 2 Sonata's the same day. Traded in my 2008 Nissan Altima and sold her 2002 Dodge Intrepid (that had only 20K miles on it, lol).

Started with Truecar like a lot of people but that didn't help me much. Honestly the truecar price was basically sticker minus rebates and you can do better than that.

My strategy has always been to offer 85% of the price of the car. I didn't quite get that this time around because tax got me on the car that I did not have a trade in for, but here is how the deals on the two cars worked out:

2013 Black GLS with PEP, mudflaps and all weather floormats (Wife's car): $19,500 out the door (basically paid cash for this one and own it outright)

2013 Pacific Blue Pearl GLS with PEP, mudflaps, floormats (mine): $20,500 out the door. I have a loan for 18,500 of that so pay about 300 per month for 1 car but we now have 2 brand new Sonatas instead of 1 really old car and 1 5 year old car.

I did the math at one point and if I remember correctly (too early for math today) I got about 13% off one car and 15-16 off the other, so my 85% rule still kind of worked. Also the Hyundai incentives helped a lot as did the fact that once I bought the first car, they gave me the extra $500 for owner loyalty on the second one.

Is that with all the other fees like Taxes, Tags, and Conveyance fees and any other fees that the dealer tries to add on?

 

Good Price for Certified Pre-Owned 2013 Sonata Limited 2.4L?

I am wondering what you guys think about what I paid recently (two weeks ago) for a certified pre-owned 2013 Sonata Limited 2.4L (non-hybrid) with 30,000 miles. Vehicle was purchased from a Hyundai dealer and comes with balance of the various original warranties, such as the 10 year/100,000 mile power-train warranty.

It has navigation, rear-camera, gray leather interior, panoramic moonroof, rear spoiler, mud guards, infinity sound system, 30-70% tint on all windows, remote starter, rain guards on windows, all-weather mats, as well as carpeted floor mats, rubber trunk cargo liner and cargo net, and is the iridescent silver blue color. Car is cosmetically new-appearing.

I paid $19,500 before NYS 8% tax.

Good deal or average? I thought I lucked out with all the added stuff the previous owner added, such as the spoiler, tint, remote starter, and accessories.

 

That sounds like a good deal to me.

I paid $14990 for a 2011 Sonata GLS with 40,300 miles on it. Only options I think it has is the alloy wheels. It does have aftermarket tent.
I am satisfied with that price for the car I got. I didn't have time to shop around as my commuter car finally gave up the ghost and the rental was just wasting money.

 

I would say I paid a lot. Considering my credit isn't all that good, I was turned down from my own credit union. Where I work, we have our own. So they tried locally. Out of the 3, 1 said yes. I was surprised. I gave $500 down but my payments are over $400 a month.
And mine is used, had 24,000 miles it was a traded in at Honda. Obviously, it's a Limited. I don't recall exact total amount but I'll share it later on.

 

Price of car as equipped $20,500. It was more but it was reduced to this amount. Once everything was done and finalized $31,545.68.
Payments rounded off to $432 for a used 2011 sonata limited with (then) 24,415 miles...

 

I don't know if this will help but here goes , ( I am long winded) this is what I did ,you can go to either Edmunds.com or Kelly Bluebook .com & enter your search vehicle . nothing on these sites is concrete or gospel but both of them will tell you what the average negotiable price is and will tell the approx. price that people are buying that car for in your area !! it will also give you a idea of your trade in value if you have one , that is just the starting point. then contact multiple dealers and use their internet sales sight and speak to the internet sales manager, do not be afraid to play one dealer against the other !! you will always make your best deal on one they have on their lot , if they don't have what your looking for they can get it from another dealer but its always best to deal on what you have in front of you !! next don't fall for the list of dealer add on's if the say sir the stuff is already on the car say that's fine , but I did not ask for it and I don't want to pay for it , you know stuff like paint protection, window etching nitrogen tire fill etc...
they make incredible % on that crap , I got my window tint for free (they cant take it off)
and remember EVERTHING IS NEGOTIBLE except tax and license !! do not be afraid to say no and don't be afraid to throw something on the table even if you think it's ridiculous, they may surprise you , also you want to see real numbers msrp, and invoice
it's important to remember that it's ok if they don't make anything on the sale of the car
there are dealer incentives they receive from the manufacture that you know nothing about , they make money if they use a certain bank so they always receive something on the back end no matter what!! and don't play the monthly payment game , like what if your payment was this would you buy the car tonight ?? ask to see the invoice you should be able to negotiate 700.00 to 1000.00 off the invoice , ask exactly what you are paying for the car , exactly what the percentage rate is and exactly what the payment will
be , then tell them if anything changes between the time you make your best deal with the salesman and the time you go see the finance manager your out of there !!! and remember they never start out at there best price if you are not educated on the sales process they will take advantage of you !! I learned from my brother-in-law many years ago , he was a finance manager at a huge Lincoln Mercury dealer back in Chicago, when the dealer principle or owner calls at the end of the month he could care less what they sold them for he is always more interested in how many did you sell because his
C.S.I ( customer service index ) is based on how many not how much , the dealerships are always concerned with how many, the dealer that sells the most always gets the gravy
when it comes to ordering cars etc .. if they flat out tell you no they cant do it and let you
walk away thats when you know that they were at their bottom line oh and one more thing don't let them tell you this deal is only good today , if it was good today it will be good tomorrow and the next day too !! good luck go get em !!!ask for any discount you can , loyalty, student, military ,

Yes that was with all the taxes, fees, tags etc. included. Of course the dealer kept the rebates and I traded in a 2008 Nissan Altima w/ 48K miles on it (I was lucky, those Altimas were hot last year as used cars). I still feel like I did really good with that deal. My wife hardly ever drives her car. Here we are a year later and she only has 1500 miles on it still. Mine has 9000.

 

Sounds like a great deal. How much did they give you for your Altima? I never tell them I have a trade in at first. If I am buying a new car first I negotiate their lowest price and then I ask them how much they will give me for my used car. Usually I end up selling it myself when they offer me peanuts

 

New 2013 SE out the door for $21,172...

Did the Friends and Family "A" plan, along with $1000 Hyundai cash back, another $500 for military, another $500 for competitor car (Accord, which I just sold a week earlier to neighbor for his kid) and another $500 to take the 36 month .9% financing (I was going to pay cash but I'll set-up an autopay for 36 months for the $500-$212 interest difference). To get the extra $500 for financing, I had to agree to only put $5864 down in cash and finance the rest. So my payments are $426 per month X 36 months after the $5864 down payment. I only have like 16 payments left so its been around 20 months ago already.


Anyway, my Ruby SE has everything except turbo and sunroof. It even has the rear spoiler. Best thing is at this dealership in Birmingham, every Hyundai sold leaves with a 20 year, 200K drivetrain warranty. The only issue I ever had with the Accord was I had to pay $2100 to have the transmission rebuilt after 12 years (which would be covered on this one).


$21,172 out the door after factoring in the $212 in finance charges for the .9% financing. Not bad considering I paid $20,800 cash for a 1998 Honda EX 16 years earlier that had 40 less HP, only a 4 speed auto, no paddle shifters, no 18 aluminum wheels, no heated seats, no leather wrapped steering wheel or leather bolsters, no Bluetooth, ect, and 15% less gas mileage...


Oh, and my brother come in 2 days later a bought the exact same optioned SE (different color) for the same amount...

 

2013 Sonata SE with approx 16k miles, paid $16,000 out the door.

They tossed in Blue link service and a maintenance plan.

 

Wow. I paid $41,000 for my 2.0T Sonata, not including the price of additional mods. Cars are so much more expensive north of the border.

 

I remember when I bought mine, emailed 4 different dealers, 2 in Houston Texas and 2 in Dallas Texas. They emailed me their best deal and I forwarded those to the other dealers.

Started this in the end of July of 2013. Around middle September, I took the best offer to the local Dealer and handed it to the salesman. I told him that this is the offer he had to match or beat. I also stated that he could leave his desk twice to ask his boss permission to do something, the third time he had to go, so would I.

He left me at his desk once and he returned with his boss. We talked and we made a deal.

 

2014 Limited Black w/premium package for $27909 OTD total

It includes the Hyundai Extended Warranty $1400. Should I cancel the Extended Warranty?

 

It includes the Hyundai Extended Warranty $1400. Should I cancel the Extended Warranty?

Exactly what does this extended warranty cover, which the included-in-the-price-of-the-car warranty does not cover?

Is this extra coverage worth at least $1400 to you?

If not, then you should cancel the extended warranty.

 

Helping my family friend out.

Dealer is offering her a 14' 2.0T for $23,000 not including tax & fees. There are no more Limiteds within 100miles and she doesnt necessarily need that power and I feel like she should only spend the extra thousand or two if its actually a good deal. (shes considering an Accord)
