First, I hope affiliates have a cap because all we are going to start seeing is car posts if this keeps up. Second, I barely feel comfy buying something and knowing I can return it when it is over the $1-200 mark on Amazon. When they fight you, they go all in. I don't see this being better with a high sticker value.

Removing slummy sales people though? Now that's worth something.

Edit to add: docfee, edible, permit, plate transfer fee, vin inspection fee. So same as dealer. Ugh.

You gotta buy a new Hyundai, though.

Looks like with the value of the GC and the "discount" you might be 10% under MSRP. If they don't play games with promos or slap points on the financing it might be an OK deal, especially considering you don't have to deal with salespeople.

This doesn't sound like a deal at all, especially since it's for Hyundais only.

No.

This car is non-returnable upon pickup at dealership, but is eligible for Hyundai's 3 Day Worry-Free Exchange.


Also, how is this a good deal?

This is a step in the right direction. Dealerships have become too comfortable

Good luck. They don't really do that anymore. I bought a new car for my wife last year and we spent HOURS. Walked out and came back next day. We negotiated, don't get me wrong, but not a "few grand".

At least you know it'll last a year before the wheels and bumper fall off. Joking!
