My trade was deducted after net price. traded an 06 base CRV with AWD and over 67,000 mi.It had an 02 sensor out(price to repair was $210). 2 small dings.Broken 12 volt plug in.It had been taken to the dealer to get fixed 3 times,still broke.Broken vanity mirror hinge on drivers side(passenger one was replaced in warranty) 2 small chips on windshield.And transmission was starting to slip.I was SICK of this car!! Love the Santa FE!!! I was allowed $9300 (deduct that off of net price)for trade in. 1 dealer was less 1 was same and 1 was a little more.However no other dealer was within $1500 on this car.

I want a new 2008 Santa Fe GLS automatic in the Dallas, TX area.

What should I expect to pay with all the rebates?

TMV (only does 2008 as a used car) - roughly $19,908, I typed in 0 miles and outstanding quality

-2500 manufacturer coupon
-1500 valued owner coupon

So, roughly $16k? Or am I wrong?

Hi, I'm looking at a 09 Santa Fe SE FWD, just the base model, no add ons. The MSRP is $25885. $22,300 after discount and rebate. I've been reading some of the post on this board and it seems folks are doing MUCH better than this. PLEASE tell me how.

uscratch

Would you please tell me which dealership you went? I live in Chicagoland area and looking for a good deal on 09 Sata Fe SE FWD.

Grossingers I can give you exact details email me mavj75@gmail.com

abchin486

don't worry...i keep seeing people get 7k off msrp....but i can only get 4k max...then they show me the door. oh well....i am loking for 08's now, but there re none around.

marksj1

I had to go 3hrs away.I went to an area that had SEVERAL Hyundai dealers.I think thats what helped the most.2 dealers I went to had no local competition.This made the most difference I feel.

ojtwelve

Can you also send me the dealer info from where you bought your SE?

THanks.

I live in Southwestern VA. I'm thinking of Richmond VA , Charlotte or Greensboro NC.

Hi friends,
would you share the prices you paid to get the 15k servicing done for your SantaFe.
My dealer here in sunnyvale is asking $280 for the service. Is it competitive price for changing the air-filter checks, tire rotation etc ?

Just picked up our 09 Santa Fe limited MSRP $29,835 with matts and cargo tray.
Got $2,000 off invoice = $26276 - $2000 rebate + 24,276 plus t&l. No trade in,
we are pleased with the car and price.

Just bought a 2009 Limited FWD Santa Fe with matts and cargo tray for $26,467 OTD (tax, tags and title were around $1,500). MSRP was $29,835. Worked with a great salesman through a friend. Wife is very happy. FYI--no 08's on the lot; only 09's.

louking

zoom,

$24, 276 is a great price. may i ask what city and dealer you went for that ?

zoom49

Dealer was Glendora Hyundai in the Los Angeles Area. Got similar offer also from Keyes Hyundai in Van Nuys Calif.

clueless17

Went to Richmond last week and bought my Santa Fe SE FWD MSRP $25,771,
Discount price $24,652, got it for $20,377 including rebate, plus $1100,00 taxes and fees. Our local Hyundai dealership would not touch the price. (Said I should buy two) Had to drive 3hrs away but is was the BEST car buying experience ever.
Did all of the negotiations through e-mail. If anyone wants a Hyundai and is within a few hours of Richmond I HIGHLEY recommend West Broad Hyundai.

Sorry guys I have to brag...I live in the Tidewater area(Southeast corner) of Virginia and for a new 2009 Santa Fe Limited w/carpet mats, cargo net, first aid kit, etc...had gone to Hall Hyundai and they wanted as much as $2000 as the final price than I got from West Broad Hyundai in Richmond, VA. I laid out the following to them and they refused to match it, said I would get there and find it wasn't the "Final" price. Not only was it the final price, BUT they offered to drive it, an hour's drive, to me!!! They rock, I told Hall Hyundai they were stupid to lose my sale and I would take it for service anywhere but there after I bought it! They couldn't believe it when I walked out the door on them! So here's the run down if any of you want to use it for comparison...
SALE PRICE $26,426.00
PROCESSING FEE $349.00
3% SALES TAX $803.25
.02% LICENSE TAX $48.85
DMV ONLINE FEES $10.00
REGISTRATION $48.75
TRANSFER FEE...NONE SINCE USING MY TRADE-IN PLATES
TOTAL COST.....$27,685.85
REBATES..........$2,000.00
BALANCE.........$25,685.85
TRADE VALUE...$2,000 (2000 DODGE DAKOTA W/132,000 MILES)
SUBTOTAL......$23,685.85 WHAT I PAID AND NOT A CENT MORE ; )

WEST BROAD IS THE PLACE TO GO!!!

anonymouse2

purchased in illinois, titled/taxes in indiana. cargo mat, mudguards, carpeted mats.

$22,200 OTD with a $6,000 trade allowance for a 03 Jeep Liberty Sport with 75K mi. Taxes were around $1,600. Probably could have pushed a little harder, but not much I suspect.

LisaD

So really $28k for a Limited AWD. No nav? How is the car treating you?

anonymouse2

The 28K included the taxes. No nav system.

Tha car is awesome. What new car is not? Nursed it home at 55-60mph, never going abouve 2000 rpm and not using cruise control, which I will keep doing till it reaches 1000 mi to break in the engine and trans. Registered 24mpg on the trip computer but I have no idea how accurate that is.

The only thing I do not like about it is that highway noise from passing vehicles can be heard easily. I could not hear the sound of its own engine - just other vehicles. I think they put in adequate soundproofing in the engine compartment, but not in the doors and roof.

clueless17

You may want to have that wind noise problem checked at the dealer. The SE that I bought a couple of weeks ago has NO wind noise at all. However, I test drove one at another dealer that had a lot of wind noise. It may be just a door adjustment.

anonymouse2

It is not wind noise at all. Its just the sound of other vehicles passing. The car itself is whisper quiet.

2009 SF SE AWD
-Bluetooth option
-3.3L

Military Discount

$22,250 OTD w/ free oil change for life

How did I do?

Alexandria, VA

anonymouse2

Did that include a trade in? If not, you got a great deal.

major_dad

Yep, no trade in.

That makes me feel better since I was wondering if I "really" got the rebate and military discount.

anonymouse2

Edmunds True Market Value (what others are paying) is $23,357 and you got an additional $1000 military rebate, so you did about $100 better than most. Enjoy the car

manavi

I'd say he did a lot better than that since Edmunds True Market Value does not include TTL.

CowherPower

Wow, I'm glad I found this forum! It seems like people are getting some killer prices. I'm thinking about getting a 2009 Limited AWD and was wondering what a good deal would be. Edmunds says people are paying $26,521 (after the $2k rebate), but should I be shooting for better than that? If location matters, I am in northern Virginia, but I have no problem going a few hours to get a better deal.

Thanks!

Here is how my "Buyers Order" reads:

(top line)-----------------------------24007.36
ON-LINE SYST FILING FEE:-----20.00
TOTAL FOR VEHICLE:--------24027.36
TAX 3%:--------------------------------731.90
DEALERS BUSINESS LIC TX:--48.79
UMV+LIC+TAX FEES:-------------52.75
PROCESSING FEE:--------------389.20
MFG REBATE:--------------------3000.00
CASH:----------------------------------250.00
BALANCE DUE:-----------------22000.00
-------------------------------------------------------
This is the car I bought: http://www.alexandriahyundai.com/newcars/vehicle-details.cfm?vin=5NMSH73EX9H2416- - 27
ePrice is listed as: $21939
Since the ePrice already factors in the $2000 rebate, the pre-discount price should be: $23939
However, my pre-discount price was $24007 (+ $20 online fee).
I guess one way to look at it is that I paid $88 for free lifetime oil change (so long as I stay in NOVA)...or is that really not a bonus?

anonymouse2

You made out like a bandit. I forgot that Edmunds does not include taxes, title and registration. So you did about $900 better than the average Joe, plus got free oil changes for life.

hey everyone I've been looking at a bunch of suvs and decide to see how much santa fes are going for now.

I am looking for a 09 santa fe in either the se or limited trim, don't really need any options but the typical ones that probably come with the santa fes by default.

I am also looking to finance the vehicle, can the special apr rate be combined with the cashback special? the 2.9 with the 2000 cashback?

I live in the new jersey tristate area, also travel to new york also. Haven't really gotten a chance to goto dealers yet but will be aiming to buy a new car this coming weekend.

Does anyone in my area have quotes from hyundai dealers?

clueless17

check out post 2412 and 2413. I would recommend going to West Broad Hyundai in Richmond.

tjruss

Does anyone know if Hyundai still leases Santa Fe's? I haven't seen anything on these forums or Hyundai's site.
I'm looking for either a Santa Fe or Nissan Rogue, but want to lease.

Thanks for any feedback.

I spent the last 6 months+ waiting Hyundai Financial to come up a lease special on the Santa Fe, first on the 2008s, then on the 2009s. It didn't happen. Unfortunately, the dealers' rates (from local lessors) were crap. Finally got a decent rate from Honda on a CR-V and went with that at $100 less per month. I would have preferred the Santa Fe, but (to quote the immortal Mick Jagger) you can't always get what you want.

justthinking

I experienced the same situation, due to the low residual value of the Santa Fe. We ended up buying the Santa Fe, and are very happy.

Hyundai is a great new car buy, but an even better 1-2 year old car purchase.

2009 Santa Fe Limited FWD\ with trailer hitch
MSRP 29,990
Invc 28,292
Sale 27,000
Rebate -2,000
Total 25,000
minus trade plus tax

Comes to 21,000 plus tax and 389 for hitch.

What ya all think?

tjruss

thanks for the reply iam,
I don't mind the CR-V, but this will be my wife's car and she doesn't like the look.
I'll be going out this weekend to see what I can do. We've been leasing for years and don't really want to bump my monthly over $400.
It looks like I can get a decent monthly on a Rouge lease, so I may go that route.
I'll let you know how I make out....

skipperl

Well, I bought it and this thing rocks. It has so many features it's ridiculous. A ton room and storage areas, extra 12vdc plugs in various locations, the stereo is great once the equalizer is tuned up, the USB port works great with my scandisk mp3 player and a normal usb cable. It's quiet, fast and the ride is very smooth with the 3.3 L. The blue lights are just like my VW dash, I like it. OK what it don't have that I'm use to. Keypad entry system and a rear window that opens. I am not sure if the roof racks spread far enough to accommodate my canoe. Other than that, this is a sweet ride. So my bottom line cost for this 2009 limited\no nav ended up with 2k rebate, sale price, tax, fees and a 4k trade in allowance for my 2001 explorer sport ended up 23,300 OTD here in Florida. You got the watch those fees.

togrove

2 dealerships in Chicagoland gave me quotes on 2009 SF SE AWD: $22,780 plus ttl, destination fee included. It's $24,780 before the current 2k rebates. Does this look like a decent deal? Thnx.

quilterkp

I got my SE for $21,900 before trade in. It is on order and is supposed to be here in two to four weeks. Is this a good price?

quilterkp

You can do better than that. I got mine for 21,900 and it is an SE. This is the first time I have ever dickered for car price and, upon reflection, I think I could have done better had I waited a bit. Go on the internet and get five price quotes. Ask your local dealer to match the lowest one. Be patient and wait. Also, try to get them to waive the dealer fee. In my state it is $600. This is where I messed up -- didn't negotiate that part.

clueless17

My total was 21,477 including all taxes and fees. It is an 09 SE FWD. That was in Richmond VA.

fwallets1

What is the reasonable obtainable price for 2009 Santa Fe GLS / auto transmission? It seems like the MSRP is $23,870. What price should I be shooting for, before any rebate/finance deal? Thanks.

CowherPower

Ok, I found a dealer who has a 2009 Santa Fe Limited AWD without any extras (other than floor mats) with an OTD price of $27,450. For comparison purposes, if I take out the tax, title, and processing fee, their price is $26,413. The Edmunds TMV price is $27,181.

Should I try for better, or am I already doing pretty good since it is already $768 under the TMV?
