Buying a 2011 Hyundai Tucson, and saving $2000 off of MSRP.
CCC customers should not assume that the CCC report is end all and be all as the insurance package is added and so are HST taxes.CCC report only showed grad rebate of $500 not other discounts offered by dealer which was a pleasant surprise when we entered into negotiations. . . .Full retail price included above amount plus insurance package plus taxes less grad discount of $500 after tax($32,336).Dealer paid little attention to CCC report and started with MSRP on bill of sale minus discounts offered but not advertised even to CCC. He added freight and ac of $1oo plus $399 insurance package which was not really negotiable plus HST. After tax, deducted grad rebate of $500. Final price $30,000 for 2011 Tuscon GLS auto with FWD.Could say this was a savings of $2336 although it assumes MSRP is always the starting point.Taxes are a big factor and may not always be obvious to CCC customers when they first get the CCC report.This was my son''s first new vehicle purchase and we were happy with total price particularly as 2011 Tuscon in high demand. Paid part of the purchase price with VISA ($5000) although dealer limit $2000. $60 extra for this privilege and my son got the points.
