Find Hyundai Dealers in Blue Point, New York

Just purchased my Sonata 2 weeks ago in NY and Edmunds was very helpful to me so thought I'd share my experience. I HATE negotiating at dealerships so I try to avoid that. I started by doing one of those online car services where I thought multiple dealers would email me with their best prices. Instead, 1 dealer called me. (That dealer then lied about the price to get me to go to the dealership. I immediately walked out.) Waste of time. Next I emailed 4-5 dealerships and told them I was going to buy a car in the next couple days and asked for their best price on the car I wanted. I told them I would buy from whomever gave the best price and would not be shopping prices. I believe 3 responded and 1 wanted me to come to the dealership and wouldn't give a price online or on the phone. I don't know if you are allowed to mention dealerships on here, but if you search for hyundai in Bath or Big Flats, NY you will likely get a place that I found puts a good price right on their website. That is the same price they emailed me as their best price. I didn't end up buying from them because they didn't have the exact one I wanted, but that is the kind of dealership I like. I ended up with a 2012 SE turbo. Extras: Navigation, white paint, mud flaps, cargo net, ipod cord, wind deflector, and floor mats for $27,431 OTD including 8% NYS tax. It had a sticker price of 28,930. Also got .9% for 3 years. It would have been 250 less, but the dealer didn't want to "harass" me to call and tell me that I had to buy that day to get the $500 financing rebate. They ended up "splitting" it with me and taking 250 off. I had no rebates. So far I have about 600 miles on it in two weeks. (Mostly Highway) I've been getting just under 30 mpg and always have it in eco mode. I am very happy with the car. It is beautiful inside and out. Some things I didn't know prior to purchasing: It doesn't have heated seats. I knew that but was very worried as I love heated seats. The SE has cloth/leather seats which I think look better than the leather and I don't miss the heated seats at all. Blue Link. As far as I'm concerned it is a piece of garbage. I briefly considered using the Blue link navigation instead of getting navigation installed. I watched a youtube video and realized that would be a huge mistake. It is waaaay to slow. I am very happy with the installed navigation system. You can use the navigation while driving.....VERY important to me and not an option with some brands. The touch screen works very well. I probably like the one in my Honda Pilot a little better, but might be just because I know where everything is and have to get used to this one. I was very worried about the upcharge for navigation because I saw very few reviews. So far I have been very happy. One thing I don't like is I don't know if you can put in the town first and then the street like my Honda. I think this one wants the street first so it comes up with way too many hits. Again, I might just be using it wrong. I was also ready to pay for the mid level Blue Link just to get the text messaging. I found out just after getting it that it is only good for sending messages!! What is the point? Every time I send a message the person is going to text back and then I can't read it? Bad job. The only other thing that I thought might be worth the blue link cost was the car starter. It doesn't even work yet so my free trial will likely be up before that gets going and I'm not paying for any of the other things it does. The thing that upsets me most about Blue Link is, from what I understand, they have to remove the Homelink mirror to put the Blue Link one on. The Homelink mirror has the garage door opener. I would MUCH rather have had that. All these features and it doesn't open the garage door? I had to turn the house upside down to find the remote for the garage door opener. The clip is too tight for the sun visor so I can't push it all the way on. FAIL. Other items: I don't care for the steering wheel buttons. I believe they were poorly thought out. My Honda has buttons in easy reach of my thumbs right where my hands naturally rest. They are too high on the Sonata and were not well thought out. For example, the volume button is closer to the outside of the steering wheel than the channel changer. I'd think most people change the channel way more than the volume. The cruise buttons are also not logically placed and I spend as much time looking on the steering wheel for what to push as I would using regular dials on the radio. I wish they were as easy to reach as the paddle shifters which I am never going to use. Visibility is not as good as my Pilot. (I didn't expect it to be) but it is worse than I thought it would be. The side view mirrors are small and the non-window parts of the car seem more obstructive than they should be. Finally, there is a little more road noise than I would like. I can hear the rocks hitting the bottom of the car sometimes. It could have been a little better insulated. Thats all I can think of right now. I know it seems like I said a lot of bad things, but I really like the car and am thrilled just walking to it after work. It is a pleasure to drive. I just wanted to point out the things that I didn't notice before buying. I highly recommend the Sonata (after 600 miles) and at this point would definitely buy it again.

Purchased my "V" on 11/8/11 from Danbury Hyundai in Connecticut. Marathon Blue 6spd m/t base model. Only options were mud guards, carpeted floor mats, rear cargo tray, wheel locks & window vin etching. Paid $17000.00 plus shipping $775, dealer prep $399 & tax. Took the 3 yr 1.9% financing offer which saved me another $500. Presently have 4500 miles on it and other than a ECM flash for stumble problem and new radio head unit under warranty no issues. Car is an eye catcher for sure. Dealer originally was asking more but when I brought in an ad from competing dealership for $300 less they matched it. Glad they did because the other dealer would of had to order the blue, this one was already on the showroom floor in Ct. My "V" replaced a 2003 Mini Cooper which was destroyed by the October snowstorm when a tree took it out of commission. I had planned on buying a V in the spring but the hunt for a blue V was moved up after the snowstorm. Ray T

Just called these people. They told me that the prices posted at their website do not include freight and do require you to finance through Hyundai, otherwise add $500. Adding $500 and $720 freight to their posted prices puts them close to what I'm seeing here in the NY metro area. Just FYI for anyone perusing their website.

The accident was a 100-150 pound buck that I met at about 55 mph. I am in western NY and the deer population is nuts. After 36 years of driving here my luck finally ran out. I hadn't considered the touring as this is just a commuter. I buy a new one and run it until the wheels fall off. Then I dump it and get another. I will check the touring out though. A manual tranny is important to me for driving in snow. The financing rebate was part of the deal. I only found one other rebate so I was at $2500 in total incentives. One interesting thing that I found was the cars.overstock.com pricing. By using the zip codes I zeroed in on that dealership at just under $13,000. I am guessing that after buying two cars there they think that they have a loyal customer. I didn't know about the sales tax thing. I will check on that with the insurance company. I expect the call tomorrow or Monday telling me that it is a total. I took out the hood and the radiator and AC condensor were pushed into the block with lot of broken plastic. I'm thinking that I am going to call them and tell them $13,000 after rebate + tax and title. They did a dealer swap based on me calling and expressing interest. Dave

Hey folks, I just signed a lease for 36 months/12000 miles lease deal from the Paramus Hyundai through the internet sales manager. They said my vehicle will be available sometime late next week but we will see if they were bluffing or not. I am getting 2011 Sonata Limited w/NAV in Pacific Blue which is located at dealer in Buffalo NY. I dealt with him only via email and was able to pull the prices down to the following which I think is quite reasonable yet not the best around the neighbor. What do you guys think? Buy - 25K+TTL Lease - $353/Month with absolute 0 down (No taxes or inception fees)
