Don't want to offend anyone who uses or runs the Circle A thing, but you might try your own efforts, and go in offering a good but low starting price. They may come back with a good deal. I felt like I got a good deal in my own negotiating. Car was $42,050 and I offered $36.5, they came back with $38-something, I said $37.5 final offer and they took it.
It was a new car purchase, in November '19. So yes.
You had a good experience; many Hyundai stores won't bother to bargain on their Genesises. In those cases, a Circle A certificate will save $thousands. My dealer, from whom I'd already bought four cars, was not motivated. (I posted elsewhere about the $9k+ markup sticker.) I brought the certificate, and he was surprised I'd come up with it. He honored it, and the capture & military discounts. He presented a finance contract with a local CU, but I insisted he check my eligibility for Genesis 1.9% as well. He finally gave in on that too.
I'd say you shook hands on a sweet deal. I got a 2018 G80 Ult RWD w lugs and First Aid Kit in Sept '17, but the dealer wanted $900 over sticker price to bring it up from CA to WA. We closed at sticker price.
Thank you, with the 2 discounts the best quote I've gotten was $54,7K I will have to research a bit more to find this magical Circle A and see if it would help.
Sorry to bother, but help a new guy? 2019 or 2020 G80 3.3T AWD Himalayan gray black interior.
Triaxie, if you are serious, give us the state, or area you are willing to travel to consider an acquisition. In the south border area of the State of WA would be Vancouver Genesis (Hyundai) 360 694-8500 who may, or not be able to provide ??????
Chicago. Wisconsin or Indiana
. I live in El Paso, TX, if that helps. There's only 1 local dealer, with about 3 G80 3.3T Sports, but all 3 have been sitting for many months there. Not sure I'd like one of those 'old' cars, especially with the potential transmission issue I recently read somewhere on this forum. I'd like a 'fresher' one, and preferably not test driven. At least not heavily, almost qualifying them as demos.
Seems the Genesis Company pays for the service costs. 'Noticed that Genesis was billed for my oil changes and lube jobs. I'm guessing this is done by all manufactures to compensate if you buy your auto in, i.e., Denver, and you get it serviced in, i.e., Utah.I'm not ready to start negotiations yet, but would like to know what exactly this 'Circle A' thing is, if one of you is nice enough to explain it to us newbies here
Finally, I'm really surprised Genesis considers Hyundai owners for a $1K extra discounts, but not Kias, which are the same damn thing. I've bought my 2 daughters Hyundais, but put the cars in their names, so they wouldn't count. Only have 1 Kia, but put that one in my wife's name. Oh, and I'd never take the car to dealer for service, but guess I'd still have to pay for that, since 'free service' is built into the price, right? Or is there a way to remove that, and get an extra discount with a waiver? Does anybody know that? Thx.
That's what my dealership told me when I went in for an oil change. Said that they are only reimbursed a certain fixed cost, and that reimbursement didn't cover their cost to provide the Genesis recommend ACEA A5 (full synthetic) oil. So they only offer conventional oil.
