Just purchased an Artic Silver GT Premium Package Automatic (leather,ABS,TC,Sunroof) for $20,200. It goes for 21,670(MRSP) here in the GTA(greater Toronto area). Felt like all the research was worth it as it gave me the ability to bargain.
I went to one of the other St. Louis area dealers (which will remain nameless, but it's off I-70 ) and they were extremely rude and VERY high pressure. I won't ever go back there.
Thanks!!
The 2003s are coming in Oct/Nov with not noticeable changes as I heard.
Good luck in your search. If anyone is in NJ see Jose at Maxxon on Rt. 22 in Union. He was a great salesman with no hassles and very polite and patient!
First time new car buyer here. Just getting ready to begin negotiations on a Black GT 5-speed NO sunroof or any options. Dealer in Topeka found one and will bring in for me - I am assuming this hurts my bargaining leverage but hopefully not too much.
Anyone have any experiences with Sunflower or Noller Hyundai here in KC area? And any idea what this stripped (but still loaded) version is going for around here?
Also, I have to put down a deposit to bring the car in - is that refundable?
Sorry for sounding so clueless. Will let you know how things turn out.
Cheers -

Thanks for the advice. I did put the deposit on credit card (thinking the same thing re: the card company). Also just got a call from dealer 10 min ago saying the car is here (there, actually - 25 minute drive). We'll go over tomorrow and make sure that this is in fact the right car for us. I'll make sure to follow the Edmunds.com advice and try not to appear too overeager, but I'm sure the salesperson is salivating over having someone want a particular model so bad he had to put a deposit down to bring it in....
thanks again -

I live in Princeton so it's not too far from Maxxon.
Thank you.
I'm looking to buy an Elantra GT in a month or so and was wondering if there is anyone here that has any experience with any dealers in the Milwaukee area. The only option that I'm looking for is an auto tranny so what would be a good price? I'm starting to send email inquiries to various dealers and would like to do most of the negotiations that way. Also, does anyone know which dealers are better to deal with for service-related issues. Thanks in advance and keep posting the good info!

By the way, I might be in the market for a GT soon and I also live in the Southern Wisconsin area. Please post which Hyundai dealer(s) in the Milwaukee area you get your best offer(s). -thanks!

the dealership gave me cards to present for referrals! they have since made very nice confetti!
if you are in south florida, do yourself a favor and avoid RICK CASE HYUNDAI
Has anyone traded in their 01 Elantra GLS? What did you get for it? So far the only offer I got was about $1000 below KBB wholesale which is about $7000 from a Hyundai dealer here in Souther CA. Mine is an 01 Elantra GLS, Auto, Moonroof, CD Player, Mud Flaps and Wind Deflector. It has 32500 miles.
BTW, I am thinking of getting a Elantra GT.
Thanks,
Shawn
Just purchased 2002 Elantra GT/hatchback
5-spd trans, ABS/TCS, Pewter. Car pretty much maxed out. Package 11.
Sticker price was $16,200 here in VA.
I paid $14,500.
I think I made out fairly decent. They gave me just a tad under the KBB value on my trade in, which was a pleasant surprise!
PS I LOVE THIS CAR!!!
Any feedback re: price?
Happy Driving to ya'
The past reliability.....scares me. (nearest dealer is 60 miles away......if it need's a lot of service.)
Have it in writing.....should i go for it?
Thanks
So far the car has been great, especially compared to my previous conveyance! : ) I'm looking to many years of smooth cruising.
Happy motoring!

im on the C&D boards debating the value of the elantra over the cavalier, any competitor and some guys just dont seem to get my point so im gonn ask you...try and be unbiased... its gonna be hard...the only comeback they can muster... : but hyundai reliability and resale value sucks...
I bought an Elantra after considering the Focus and the Sentra. I never considered the Cavalier knowing it's reliability record.
I would definitely choose the Elantra over the Cavalier due to the warranty, the standard equipment, and the lower price.
I can relate from past experience that the Elantra is a much more refined car than the current Cavalier. I have just recently switched from a 1998 Cav sedan to an Elantra GT and the differnce is very noticeable. The Elantra seems to be tighter and more responsive than the Cav and the interior design and materials are much better as well. Even comparing between my sister's 2002 Cav and the Elantra there is still a big gap.
On the other hand I must say that my Cav was completely reliable and didn't have any major problems with it. I'm expecting my Elantra GT to be even better. I think that the Cav's main problem is that it's such an old design compared to other cars in it's class.
As far as resale, I really got hurt on my trade by all the incentives that are currently being offered by GM. Why would someone want to by a 4-yr old car when you can by new with 0% financing or big cash incentives?

Cavalier has standard ABS, choice of 2 or 4 doors, much larger dealer network, available 150 hp.
Thanks for your cooperation!
