Well, after reading many posts on this site for the past six months, I finally pulled the trigger.
I just took delivery of my new '07 Limited w/Ultimate 25 package. I took the advice of many of you that suggested that I deal through the internet sales manager and I believe that I worked the system well.
The MSRP was $31,190 and I paid $24,877 after rebates ($1000 regular and $1000 loyalty) as we have another Hyundai in the family garage.
On top of the $24,877 was a document fee of $58, an electronic tag and title fee of $168 and $1752 sales tax for an out the door price of $26,856.
I ended up buying from Patrick Dranias at Gartner Hyundai in Aurora,IL (Chicagoland) who pledged to match any other written offer and he was certainly true to his words.
I utilized the Hyundai corporate site at Hyundaiusa.com and after configuring the vehicle, then requested quotes from five area dealers, which took all of twenty minutes in total.
Gregory was the cheapest and Darcy was the highest by over $700 while Patrick, Ettleson and Gartner were $200 over Gregory which Gartner offered to match. With Gartner being the closest to my house and having had good experience with their service department in the past, this was a no brainer.
The car was prepared properly when I picked it up with the lock/unlock and immobilizer code set as per my request.
Now the fun begins driving it! I hope this helps someone else as much as the other posts have helped me.
Getting ready to order our new Azera but have only driven a bare-bones SE. My only upgrades that I can't live without are leather, sunroof & a better sound system. For those that have compared both sound systems, is the 600+ watts w/ Surround $600 better than the 300 watter? I love my tunes but not sure if I would even utilize that much wattage since I'm not into earth shattering gangsta rap, lol Living in a small town we don't get many Azeras locally to compare. The dealer currently only has 2 SEs on the lot w/ the base system. I guess the main question I have is for an average Joe, will the 315 watt Infinity provide a quality and powerful system? Also, for those that have done all the shopping for availability, is it even possible to find Limiteds w/ just the pack 24 or 4? All the posts I've been reading seem to suggest that I'm only going to find a "strip" Limited or one w/ Pack 25. Thanks for your help BTW, Just love the Azera, I thought I would and it would be hard to convince my wife~NOT~my wife was sold before we even turned the key
I think you did pretty darn well for yourself. The deal sounds like a good one. Isn't it a good feeling to know you got a great car, good price, you like the way you were treated, and the dealer did what you expected and requested?
Our old 94 Sedan deVille my daughter's been driving is on it's last legs. Started over the weekend thinking about getting me a new car and giving her my old Lumina with the sport package that she's been coveting for a few years.
Anyways, discovered the Azera on here and Consumer Reports and am seriously considering getting it instead of a Camry or 2nd Avalon.
Since that time, I have been checking here and on the net to get a feel for prices and saw the $1000 cash incentive that expired on 7/31. So far this morning, I haven't seen a replacement incentive.
Does anyone know when new incentives are announced?
Don't have a handle on how Hyundai does things, but is a $2000 incentive or very low APR reasonably likely?
Also, on a slightly off topic matter, I'm a little concerned about the lack of dealers here in New Orleans. There is only one, a branch of a large local dealership with a lot of lines. It's a poor relation; the Hyundai facilities are not too impressive. They don't even have a Limited in stock. I've been spending about half my time in Houston since Katrina, so it's no problem buying there from one of the 5 dealers within 20 miles, but I'm worried about emergency warranty work that might need to be done here. A friend got screwed when he bought a new Isuzu and the local dealer closed. He had to drive all the way to Baton Rouge for warranty work, about 90 miles.
How is Hyundai doing?
Is there any kind of warranty commitment or law that would required them to keep a dealership here?
Unlike Isuzu, Hyundai is definately a brand on the way up. I would think w/ their ever increasing sales #s that Hyundai should succeed in that market. Hard to predict how that particular dealership will turn out, but hard to imagine such a large metropolis wouldn't be able to keep a single Hyundai source open.
re 782: Hyundai has very few exclusive dealers. You are in a large market. Multi-brand mega dealers are sadly uninformed about the Hyundai product line and make minimum investments in depth of inventory, as you pointed out previously.
re. towing, I assume it's to the nearest Hyundai dealer from the location of the breakdown.
It seems the availability of the 07 Azera with XM and the Ultimate pak is not good. Have been negotiating with a local dealer for a Pearl White with Tan inside and he had to go 300 miles away from SF bay area to find my car. Price ok, around $27,000 with surround sound but the dealer really pushed me to take one without XM until I stood up and told him I was leaving.Car is supposed to be here Friday.
Re 777. With the economic situation in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast, it is not surprising no more dealers. Upstate SC area has two 25 miles from each other and two more within 100 miles. The closest dealer gave up the Kia franchise to get the Hyundai one. All are in "stand alone" buildings/lots, but are owned by bigger dealerships, but who isn't these days? Ironically my two previous cars were Toyotas and both had to be obtained from other dealerships-one 250 away and the other 150. There are four Toy dealerships within 25 miles of my house and none of them had the cars I wanted and the cars weren't all that unusual.
I actually don't want the XM. I'd rather have an input for my mp3 player and it looks like the XM eliminates the cassette player. I need to do some more checking to see if I can get an aftermarket solution.
That's the one advantage of the Toyota's. The Camry's have an socket for mp3 players. The 2007 Avalon's don't, but they kept the cassette, as far as I could tell, even with XM.
I had to do the same for my Avalon, although it was only 90 miles. None of the 4 New Orleans dealers even replied. This was back in 2004; maybe it's different now.
It looks like things have gotten worse for Toyota's in the Gulf States region as far as I'm concerned. The wife would really like me to get another Toyota, since they are a pretty known quantity and we had a very bad experience with a Mazda luxury car in the mid-90's. OTOH, the Toyota prices are outrageous in Texas and La. because Gulf States limits choices to a few preselected packages containing lots you don't need to get what you want. I only really want Stability Control and would like leather and heated seats (even in the Gulf South, they are sometimes nice). Had to get them as a package in 2004, but they turned out nice. To get them now around here, you have to get top of the line Camry or Avalon (didn't like the Touring suspension) and with very little discounting. Have even considered flying to Annapolis to deal with with Fitzmall.
The Azera seemed to have everything I wanted, except for that audio port at a pretty fair price. Will have to take the wife to drive all of the candidates. The Hyundai dealership I went to here in Houston is a little bigger and better looking than in N.O., but not tremendously so, but the salesman was very knowledgeable and even offered to let me take the car a few hours. I wanted to drive the Sonata just to see what it was like (not wild for it), and he was busy, so he gave me the keys and said to try it out by myself. This without ever asking for any ID and seeing nothing concrete except my old, beat-up, green Lumina parked in their lot. I guess I looked legit.
Will drive by the other 3 w/in 20 miles to see how substantial they look. I can then take the wife to a better looking one, but will try to buy from the first place
For sure have your wife drive the Azera. My wife stands 5 feet two and says this Azzie is the first car we've ever owned (and we've had a bunch) that she finds completely satisfied in driving. All adjustments to seat/pedals/steering wheel/mirrors/visors, everything can be fit to her perfectly! Unbelievable!
Well, my wife is actually an inch or two taller than me and with longer arms, which doesn't stop her from hugging the steering wheel as women tend to do.
Took her to drive the Toyota's tonight, Camry XLE and Avalon LS. We agreed that the ride of the new Avalons isn't really any better than the Camry and neither is as smooth as our 2004 Avalon which I believe is the quietest car on the road I've owned. I only drove the Azera once, but I felt it was a lot more like our 2004 Avalon than the current Avalons are.
She also thought all the aluminum in the Toyotas was a bit tacky. I did too. Looks like a comparable equipped Camry lists for about 30k with an invoice of about 27 and, according to Edmunds people are paying a grand over that. If it's that hard to deal, it's either the Azera or out of state.
The Azera salesman offered to let me have one for a couple of hours and I plan to take it on the same bad streets as we did the Toyota's to see how it measures up. There's also a sunken manhole cover there, so I can see if I get the dreaded clunk.
I don't think you will get the dreaded clunk in a newer Azera. I think that problem has been fixed but..... let me know if you do because I don't have it in mine.
Am disappointed, not about the dreaded clunk, which didn't appear, but about the front passenger seat, which was too uncomfortable for my wife. The salesman let us take it out for about an hour, so I thought the ride might sell her on it.
As mentioned above, she's tall. The seat bottom can only be moved forward and back and not raised or tilted at all, so it gave her no thigh support. She spent the whole time with her legs pulled up and her feet on the floor. On top of that she has a not great back, so by the time we were done, she was sore. I asked the salesman if any of the packages came with a more adjustable passenger seat, but he said no.
I don't understand why they put the passenger seat so low and didn't allow that seat to be raised, considering how nice they made the driver's seat. Even the Camry XLE has that, or if it doesn't, its default position was high enough to accomodate someone like her.
Well, it looks like I'm stuck with a Camry at a higher price, or maybe an Avalon at a much higher price. It was nice while it lasted.
jUST PICKED UP mY aZERA fRIDAY. wHEN SUNROOF IS ALL THE WAY OPEN A HORRIBLE WHISTLING SOUND IS HEARD. If I press down on a bar in the front, it goes away. Is this a defect?
The bar you are referring to is probably some sort of air diffuser that pops up when the sunroof is opened. It is designed to disrupt the flow of air. Specifically, it is there to solve the problem that you are having.
Many cars have sunroofs that cause a vacuum effect when opened. I don't know if your problem is a defect, or just an unintended consequence of the design. I have a car that is unbearable at highway speeds with just the sunroof open. Lowering the rear windows by a couple of inches will probably make the sound go away. It works for my car.
Interesting. I had a 2003 Camry XLE V6 and the seats, ride, etc. were not as good as my 2007 Azera. The V6 Camry supposedly has a better suspension than the 4. I have a fried who is about 225, 6'2" with a bad back and knees and he has been on 250 mile, one day round trips in my Azera three times. He always comments on comfortable the ride is. He owns two Mercury Marquis'. I tried the Avalon Limited, but could not detect an improvement and really got turned off by the exterior and interior styling, esp. the "doors" on the controls.
I had a whisting on my sunroof that turned out to be caused by part of a strip of a sticker that was attached along an edge of metal bar. Once removed the sound went away.
It was the plastic strip they forgot to remove. One more question. I find it very hard to see the radio display, especiall during the daytime.There was a film strip I removed from the venilation display that improved the read out alot. I don't think there is still one over the radio display but the black numbers are much lighter than the ventilation display. Is this normal? is there any fix? I must remove my sun glasses to see any radio display during the day. Also notice this problem when I rented an Azera.
No other problems. Seats are very comfortable. Finally, a car without hard seats!
About a week after the purchase of my new Azera I received the following email. I guess that service after the sale is not dead (at least not in the Chicagoland area)! (names and phone numbers omitted)
Dear (_____),
Congratulations on your new Hyundai Azera, and welcome to the Gartner Family. We hope you are enjoying your new ride, and that your experience has been a positive one. My name is (_______), and I work in the Customer Relations Department at Gartner Buick-Hyundai-Saab. My role is to be available to you for any future questions or concerns. Basically, I assist your salesman in taking care of you.
At Gartner, we have changed the car buying experience. Hopefully, choosing your car, and the purchase has been pleasant. If there is anything about the process that you would like to share with me, please contact me. After the delivery, we want you to feel that you matter to us. The Customer Relations Department was designed to insure that there is always someone with the time to listen, and answer your questions.
In a few weeks you will receive a survey from Hyundai Motors. These are extremely important, and how well we do on our surveys have an enormous impact on our dealership. I am hopeful that you are able to give us a "10" on each and every question. Anything below a "10" is considered a negative response, or a complete "0". If you feel unable to respond in that way, please contact me, and tell me how we could have improved your experience.
So Thank You again for your business, and please phone or email me if you ever have any questions.
I must remove my sun glasses to see any radio display during the day.
What kind of sunglasses do you wear? I wear polarized sunglasses and have no problem seeing the radio display. I had problems in the past with seeing other kinds of LED and LCD displays with polarized glasses. Specifically, I couldn't read my Hummingbird 4X6 Boat Sonar with polarized glasses. If you're wearing Blueblockers or the read colored UV bockers that could contribute to the problem. You might try different sunglasses. If that doesn't work then I would talk to the dealer.
I bought an Azera last month -- Limited with mats and flaps, but did not get the ultimate package because my head hit the roof when I looked over my shoulder on the floor model with a sunroof.
I told the salesperson that I did not like dealers that marked up over MSRP (which they did). I walked in late in the evening and by the time I got to price negotiation, the sales manager had left for the night. I asked them to match the internet price at fitzmall.com (23,504) which included $1ooo rebate & $500 finance rebate. They wouldn't match, but came within a $300. I then asked for the loyalty rebate (I bought an old hyundai off craigslist.org for a lot less than $1000), so my cost after tax/title/tags & buying, insuring and registering the old hyundai was 23700. I refinanced @ my credit union to drop the interest rate by 2% this month. The old car was recently donated.
The terms and conditions on the loyalty rebate only required that you be a current registered owner, so a little creativity and leg work can save most of $1000.
I hit my head when I try to look over my left shoulder. It wasn't as bad as the Altima/Camry/Aura/Accord, but it was enough to dissuade me from the sunroof, even if I liked the rest of the package.
just joined so pls forgive if i'm cutting in line or goofing up a thread.
i just bought 07 azera limited ultimate (25) option - sage green for my mother yesterday.
paid 27,250 in kissimmee florida - would like to know if that was good deal?
i'm tickled pink about this car. we've looked for long time and closest thing we've been pleased with was the new 08 C300 MBenz but that was simply too much money for what that car offered.
Thats about what I paid, with surround sound. Love the car. Drove it the same day I turned my audi A6 in and like the Hyundai better all the way around. It amazes me.Got Pearl White. Seats are way more comfortable. Car is quieter and power is great.
Bought the car 5.31.2007 paid $ 25,000.00 + tax and license. Best car I ever bought.No hassle, salesman was very professional,did the deal in one hour and drove the car home.
Yes, it was the 07 Limited Ultimate in silver. That day I must have tested 4 or 5 different cars that where on my short list. In the evening ( 5.31 ),my wife and I went to TOWN Hyundai in Denville ,NJ.,saw the car in the showroom and were ready to buy. Told the salesman that I wouldn't go over $25,000. He talked to his manager which agreed and told me ,you got yourself a deal.I knew it. Remember it is always to your advantage to buy a car at the end of the month.
While I love my Azera (except the clunk), the NEW 08 MB C300 @ $31,750 Base Price takes the wrinkles out of my trousers...big time! I was thinking of giving my wife the Azera and picking up a Genesis when they become available...but after seeing the C300 I may not wait for the Genesis afterall. Yeah I know it's not an apples to apples comparison.....but like they say; "love is blind"
The $27,250 you paid sounds like a very good deal for an 07 Limited Ultimate, despite another poster fortunate enough to get one for $25,000. By happy, the Azera is a tremendous value as an under $30,000 automobile.
RE: 815 Just think about us guys who wanted the first one on the road and ordered it before it was introduced at the dealerships and paid 30k plus tax and tags.
Comments
of course, fully loaded
was this a good deal?
I just took delivery of my new '07 Limited w/Ultimate 25 package. I took the advice of many of you that suggested that I deal through the internet sales manager and I believe that I worked the system well.
The MSRP was $31,190 and I paid $24,877 after rebates ($1000 regular and $1000 loyalty) as we have another Hyundai in the family garage.

You are absolutely correct about finding the right dealer from what I have read of the experiences of others written here in the past.
Still smiling in Chitown!

Thanks. :confuse:
van
No law can require a dealership to remain in business nor for a manufacturer to maintain a dealership in a particular location.
It's not quite as bad as the Isuzu situation. There is one dealer 35 mi away and two others 45 miles away.
BTW, I assume the road service in the warranty includes towing. Is there a limit on the distance they'll take it to get to a dealer?
re. towing, I assume it's to the nearest Hyundai dealer from the location of the breakdown.

I wish I could say the same.
The stealership where I bought mine gave me the old "screwed blued tattooed and barbecued" routine.
(Name of that place will be supplied if you email me privately.)
Well worth a private email if it will save you from the same fate.
If yes, I paid 2K more - I'm already ~900 below his invoice.
How can a dealer go that low? anybody know?
