Price Paid For 2015 Genesis

Pulled the trigger on an AWD Ultimate. Thanks for the Truecar tip. Great starting point. I wound up at $500/mo. with $1,500 down. I had to drive to a dealer two hours away, but it was worth it. My local dealer, who have have bought 3 Hyundais from, pretty much insulted me with a monthly payment of $650 or so. I can't remember exactly because he was so far off and I was seeing red.

Anyway, got to spend two hours on the highway last night learning the car as I drove home. What an amazing ride. I couldn't ask for more. Thanks to everyone here for their help.
 
Wow great deal. What was the MSRP ?

Thanks
 
Looking to update and upgrade your Genesis luxury sport automobile? Look no further than right here in our own forum store - where orders are shipped immediately!
What will you do with two cars then :rolleyes:

It is clearly a buyers market with cars - $10-$12K off MB E350's are not unusual in competitive market areas as the 2016's come on the lot now.

Keep in mind the euro is in the toilet this year.

Was this a lease or a purchase? At $500 a month, I could upgrade lol. Also, is a purchase, whats the length of the loan?
 
What's going on out there? Some dealers are offering 0 down 300 per month 10K miles for a lease for a base model. Are we at the bottom???
 
$397/mo, nothing down, 15K miles per year, basic 3.8 Genesis...

$52,700 plus just over $1,000 in aesthetic stuff (tint, paint protection, etc.) the car already had done at the dealer that my dealer grabbed the car from.

Lease. 36 months, 10k miles a year. I don't put many miles on my cars so this was perfect for me.
 
Last hour of the last day of the month and quarter... I got a deal I was very happy with.

I had started a week earlier with TrueCar prices of 49,780 - 50,252 from 4 different dealers in the Dallas Ft Worth area. I was able to eliminate 3 fairly quickly as they said that would be the best they could do. As I looked at other makes/models I stayed in contact with the 3rd, Huffines Hyundai of Plano. After an initial round of negotiation, finalizing on a color, and throwing out all but one other purchase option (Lexus GS350 FSport) they found me a car at another of their local branches with no charge for the transfer.

2015 5.0 Ultimate Sedan - Empire State Gray on Black - MSRP 55,700

I negotiated these adds:
Rebadged w/Wings
Ceramic tint all around including the pano. They used a vendor I trust from a previous transaction.

My final price: 45,898 + 125 Doc Fee + TTL
This included 1,000 competitive owner coupon and 3,000 in Flex Cash coupons. This was the ONLY dealer that offered ANY Flex Cash, even after I informed the others that this was on the table. One dealer softly implied that the deal was not real.

After I was satisfied with the purchase price, I offered to let them make a bid on my existing car. The first offer beat Carmax by +/- 10% but was 500 below what I thought I could easily get on my own. They came up 200 and I let them have it.

Hyundai's promotional purchase financing rate was the same as my credit union so I let the dealer do the financing and they rate ended up *ever so slightly* lower using US Bank NA.

The sales experience was great and I'm loving the car. It's a tough task to beat this kind of tech for the price.
 
Aweome deal CoryDallas.

I spent about that much on a non ultimate....so good job!

Congrats!

I'm strongly considering leasing a "loaner"

2015 5.0 Sedan (everything except ultimate) - 6k miles - Casablanca white

$350/month $4k down.

Is this deal any better compared to a "new" lease?
 
The lease cost seems decent. However, I am always concerned about loaners...its been driven by unknown number of people in unknown ways. But the price is compelling..IMHO, it is about a hundred dollars a month lower than a new one.

Tough call

I wouldn't have a problem with a loaner...it's still under warranty.

Every dealership I have talked to however has told me that they have to tack on the extra miles that are on a demo to the lease, making it more expensive than a new lease...to lease, it's assumed that the mileage is near 0. 6,000 miles isn't zero.

That is a used car. It should be priced as such, not sure it is, ask them for the exact selling price. Also, $4k is a lot to put down on a lease.
 
Now I'm deciding between 3.8 RWD w/ Ultimate package vs Technology Package

I know the main difference is the DIS between the two packages, but does the option to ask Siri only available in the ultimate, or is it standard?

Quote I received for the Ultimate is $43,233 + TTL

Technology package only was $40,048 + TTL

This was all through Truecar btw, but I'm just wondering if Truecar pricing is the lowest that dealer will go, or is there still some wiggle room?
 
The main difference is the HUD, 17 speaker soudnd vs 14 and the DIS. The tech package includes Siri hands free. I use it all the time.

What are you wanting to pay? I have a hard time seeing them negotiate lower once you have pulled the truecar sheet. I would have a price in mind lower than the truecar value and negotiate up from there. Once it gets up to truecar price and they still want more that is when you show it to them.
 
I went straight to my salesman with the truecar quote. I wish I had done it differently now . The funny part (human nature) I was thrilled with the truecar quote, until I bought the car and heard they would have gone lower......

Thanks for that pointer! I'll probably try that strategy out then. Yes, the tech MSRP is around 46k.
 
I don't know what incentives are on the table but I would go with the Tech package and offer them 38k.
