Does 07 have full size spare and same alloy wheel as those on car?
Seems about right,
I asked for a grey Ltd, Ult. with blk int. Got it for 28,300 + 8.25% tax + Lic + 45 doc fee.
The dealer also threw in the mats and the rear trunk "tub" mat.
South Bay Hyundai - Gilroy

I would have thought the dealer would have let it go for around $28,000 or so with tax and license. Mine was $28,400 with tax.. license.. Mine had mats thrown in.. I think they are standard on the 07's. I need to get the trunk liner as you described. You know of anyone making custom fit rubber mats for wet weather? Grey with black leather interior is a nice combo..
I bought Black/Gray Azera with Ultimate from Amato Hyundai in Milwaukee, WI for 24529 (24400 + 129 Doc/title prep fee).
Registered in Michigan so paid 6% tax + plate fee (Had to pay tax on 25529 since $1000 was written up as rebate which I didn't like but that's how they do it in Michigan).
Also bought Hyundai Extended 10/100 warranty for $850(optional) from AMATO MKE. In michigan they wanted $995 at one dealer and $1450 at other.
I flew to MKE airport about 20 min from dealership. Salesman picked me up ontime and they had it all preped and ready with full tank and 13mph lock options. They thru in pinstripe I requested and rear cargo carpet for free. I had them take out wind deflector which is sitting in my garage in case I decide to put it back in future.
Regarding limphome option they told me I can program it my self and did not give me any codes. Still not sure how to program it. (do I need code from them first? help..)
I can't say enough nice things about 2 guys I had pleasure of dealing with. I wish I could post their name so others could get same good deal with excellent service.
Hope this helps.
Any help on the price anyone is paying for the 07's would be helpful.
Enjoy you new car, hope to do the same soon. Don't think I got the salesman you had.
Otherwise buy some clear "Rubbermade" mats at Target ($17) and hide them when you go out "on the town". The trunk liner was nice, with the "Azera" embossed title.
You did get a great deal
I have the sage green/ beige and agree that color looks different in dark or bright light.
In bright sun it appears green, and in darker light it appears gray.
I find the color changes to be interesting but unusual.
But it's personal choice in the end. I've had my 07 for a week and I love it.
Whatever appeals to you the most is the right choice.
The sage looks great when clean, but shows dirt easily.
I wash mine every couple of days.
The net impact: it added $60/month to my existing loan, extending that same loan by 12 months.
I feel it's a great deal!!
Here's to a lovely day!
My salesperson back-pedaled a bit when I expressed surprise that the literature conflicted w/ the reality of the spare tire.
FYI that Nissan Maxima provides a full-size spare w/ the top trim level, and then only w/ an options package.
I live in the Carolinas and so far, no 07's to be found anywhere. My dealer says they are only available on the west coast and in the midwest at this time. Can't figure out why Hyundai is holding up delivery to the east. Inventory? Dealers around here do seemingly have a glut of 06's though. One dealer here has about 40 left on their lot!
Currently in negotiations for an Azera but of course, the dealer is trying to stroke out another grand or so! Best deal so far is 26.1K for 06 Limited with Premium (Fitz-mall has same car for 25.8K), but that is not the OTD price. Dealer wants 600 in doc fees! Hah! I asked what exactly does that 600 cover? He replies, and this is no joke, "nothing". He really said "nothing"! So I am supposed to just give you 600 out of the kindness of my heart?
So far, two dealers, same story line here in the Carolinas. 600 doc fees! Why every dealer charges this they tell me!! Coming from New England, this is the first time I have encountered 600 doc fees! I can see 80-100 in doc fees covering titling and such, but 600 and as he said, for nothing! All this and he didn't even attempt to use a gun to rob me! I still think 26.1K is to high for a leftover!
Maybe they will be more willing to deal when they get some 07's? So, does anyone have any info on when the 07's will appear in the southeast? According to Fitz-mall in Maryland, they don't have any either.
strange..

My local dealer ( South East Florida) claims thay they have not been given a ship or release date for the 07. He says that there is a glut of 06's in inventory in the state.
This isn't a great sign for the flagship model of Hyundai.
Maybe they should start listening to and responding more to customers and local dealers.
Most owners agree that the Azera is good, but that with a little more of something, could be great.
They release 07's to over half the country but not the east coast? I saw were someone bought a 07 in Wisconsin, but don't know of any 07's further east.
Frankly, I've never heard of such a thing. Usually, the dealers are all to anxious to get the new model and thus offer steep discounts on the leftovers. Now in the case of the Azera, Hyundai is holding back the 07's from the most potential buyers in the country! More people live east of the Mississsippi than the rest of the country combined. So, this just makes no sense at all.
One local dealer is advertising on their website that the 07 Azera is "in", but looking at their inventory only shows 4 Azera's and they are all 06's.
I've looked at about 10 dealerships in the Carolinas and Georgia. My closest dealer has the most inventory of Azera's (this dealership has SE's if you can believe that!) while the majority of the other dealers are only showing 1-4 cars in stock!
So I am still puzzled at why Hyundai is holding back the 07's!

I've recommended them so many times, I should start asking for a kick back.... I purchased my 2006 SE Premium from Great Lakes Hyundai in Streesboro, OH for $22.6K It also included floormats & sunroof wind deflector (which I'm removing anyway). It was a 8.5 hour trip back to NY, and that includes two stops of 30 minues each. I would imagine that the drive back to the Philly area wouldn't be much more.
They have great deals because of the volume they do, they will find a car for you if they don't have the color / option combo you want (they did for me), they even picked me up at the airport. Heck the airfare was only $100 on Southwest. They currenntly have a few Azera's on ebay. Tom & Andy's cell phone numbers are also on the ebay postings.
Good Luck!
I'm not sure that you guys are comparing apples to apples.
06 is going to be a lot cheaper now than 07.
The 06 is now a one year old model.
Right of the bat I got tick off when he said , write what you want to pay , he gave a tiny tiny tiny bit of paper and don't show me the number.
Has anybody gone thru this . I felt uncomfortable . Plus the usual back and forth to the sales manager.
Floridabob did your dealership treat you well ?? What is the name, please ??
Does the State of Florida have any good dealership and good service
department ??
Thank you
Lou
I purchased my Azera at King Hyundai in Delray.
I would not recommend them at all. The only reason I bought there was that they were the only dealer at the time that had Sage Green/ Beige Ultimate in the state. PS. I paid MSRP.
I have had the car serviced at Napleton Hyundai in West Palm Beach. The sales Manager is Jeff. Very nice guy.
The service and parts departments are cooperative and try their hardest, but unfortunately they are not assisted very well by corporate and must do a lot of trial and error work to solve problems.
Apparently, no dealers have been provided with 2007 Azera updates for their computer catalogues.
I would research what dealer invoice is on Edmunds (not the Edmunds market value) less any rebates and propose that number. Many posts have talked about buying an Azera under dealer invoice.
If they want to play these give me a number games and then grind you back and forth, hold your ground or tell them you are leaving. If they think you are really a buyer, they'll work to keep you there.
Good luck
Thanks for your advice.
Lou
Until every car is sold like a Saturn where the price is what it is, pay it or buy a different brand, the automotive industry will always have this negative stigma attached to it
I will say in closing that not all dealers I have purchased from act this way. I had a very positive encounter with the dealer that I bought my 07 Sonata from and also the Kia dealer I dealt with to buy an Optima 2006.5 for my Mother.
It is the majority that give them all a bad name.
They offered 2k more for my Lexus which is what I wanted from the beginning.
I will be getting a new 2006 Limited with Ultimate Pkg. , Dark Blue with Black interior.
Free change of Oil for Life .
I get back a check for $25000.00 and a new Azera , for my 2006 LX470.
My insurance is going to drop considerably , and a bit on the tag , no premium gas , plus very expensive trips to the service department.
I have to say that I am happy.
This past Saturday I test drove an 06 Azera the base model , took it for a along drive , I was very impress .
Thanks again , soon we all have something in common to talk about.
Lou
Is it the combination of gas and insurance or just didn't like it? They are supposed to be very nice trucks.
Just curious my friend.
I always wanted a Lexus SUV , just at this time in my life I would like to simplified and at the same time doing it with style , the Azera fits my frame of mind and my wallet at this time.
If anybody knows for sure when the 07 are arriving in Florida please let me know.
I have not signed any papers yet but they want me drop my LX tomorrow ( Wednesday) while they find a new 2006 Azera Limited with Ultimate Pkg. , in the mean time I will get a free loaner. The salesman mention this drop off , I think they are afraid I might get a better deal somewhere else , I am keeping the title till the final transaction.
This method is new to me , any idea why they are doing this ??
All help welcome
Lou
Bought radio control switch for $72 and installed it in 15 min. now I can change stations.
Very happy over all
My rear end will be very sore by now.
And the colors choice has dwindle from this dealership , first I wanted the Eggplant color, then the Sage also NO GO and now they Dark Blue is in dangerous species list.
If they have glut of 2006 Azeras they are leading me to buy the least sold color.
I have not bought a vehicle in a while and trusting a dealer still makes me queasy.
This early cold 40 degree ( for Florida) morning I'll tell the salesman that I need to wait and see what will happen by mid December the 07 might be in town.
Thanks guys and Happy Holidays
Lou
There are subtle changes to the 2007 and, just for the simple fact that it's now November, buying a 2007 will be a smarter purchase for reasons down the road plus I'll bet my wallet that they'll be giving these cars away at 2006 pricing very soon as the year is coming to an end and there is always strong motivation not to let a large number of cars roll into 2007 inventory status.
If you are not in a hurry and can wait another 3-4 weeks, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised and can find an awesome deal in the color of your choice
Hi, Lucky Lou:
Have you thought about going to a car broker? I got a great deal w/ my first Hyundai, a Sonata, that way. Via google.com, I found www.floridautobrokers.net. It might be worth a call.
Here in the Denver area, both the '06 and '07 the Azera is fairly available, in all colors, based on a search of dealers w/ websites. I counted about 20 Azeras. The least available colors are Sage and Aubergine. If you're curious, just do an Internet search on colorado hyundai dealers.
Hyundai is a far more popular vehicle in FL than here. My parents bought their Sage Azera about 4 weeks ago in Orlando; they live in The Villages.
Good luck finding your dream Azera ... and have a lovely Thanksgiving!
Susan
No have not , I really would like to buy the Azera thru a local dealer preferably Cocoa Hyundai where my friend works . They were giving me a very good trade-in money , I wanted the Azera 2007 but right now they only have the 2006. Even in the 2006 their color selection is puny, I also wanted the the Sage .
Before I decide I would like to see the Eggplant color with Black interior.
My wife and I took her elderly mother out to eat on Thanksgiving day , hope your meal was better than ours , our turkey was very dry.
Lou
Won't your local dealer swap with another dealer to get the color of your choice?
