Topic: Best Hyundai dealership in Ottawa??

[Zorro]

With the GF getting relocated to Barrhaven (South of Ottawa) and us living downtown we’ve decided to trade in the Golf and get the new 2012 Accent. She drives everyday now, so fuel economy is most important. This will ultimately become her car (we will share for the 1st year or 2).

I really like the new Kia Rio5, which is the same as the Accent but with a different skin, but after calling a couple dealerships in Ottawa, it looks like they won’t be getting them until late this year. So we’ll go with the Accent.

My question is which is the best Hyundai dealership in Ottawa to deal with, in terms of trade-in value, getting a good deal and stock? We’ve decided to go for the GLS model. 

Thanks! Any input is appreciated!! 

We've dealt with West Ottawa Hyundai in the past, which is now Myers Hyundai.  There were excellent to deal with.  No complaints from me.

I think the one in Orleans is the best from what I hear, very impressive facility, nice personel from my experience.

Damn!! I was hoping to go to the Bank one since they're the closest to us, but i guess that's a no go.
Do you guys feel like it's worth it for me to do the Car Cost? As in should i be expecting siginificant discounts? I know it's a brand new car (& very hyped), maybe they won't budge to much on pricing. They are giving $500 off any car at the moment. So is this as good as it gets in terms of deals?

Thanks again!!

Thanks guys

Nooobody deals.... like Dilawri!

I'm sure you've heard the commercials.  That is who owns Bank.  Their slogan although is a catchy tune is a secret message telling you that they will do anything to ensure that they screw you over.

"Deal" in the slimeyess sense of the word.

Thanks for the heads up!

I had a great buying experience at Myers Hyundai on Robertson Rd. I've never had any service done there, so I can't comment on that portion of the dealership, but I recommend them for the purchase.

Thanks!

FYI, i just the called the Myers dealership and apparently there is a strike at the port (BC) and no Accent GLS' are being released. The guy said that it may take a few weeks...Hyundai is looking at releasing the cars at another port.

I was under the impression that CatsEye68 owned that Hyundai dealership.................

I thought the CarCostCanada thing was sort of a gimmick (really, could they inform me of any deals that I couldn't find myself?)  But then I used it, and was pleasantly surprised.  I was "window-shopping" for a 2011 Elantra Touring, just to compare new pricing against a lightly used 2009 ET for sale (which I ended up buying).  The Hyundai website showed a price of 22049 + freight + tax (or about $26K all in, which is overpriced IMO), and no incentives for a cash price on the website (but I figured the dealer would sell for much less).  CCC returned a quote with $4500 off, or $21.5K all in.  I was highly impressed (and the local dealer phoned me up not 2 minutes later, offering to match the CCC quote).  Now I may have been able to negotiate $4500 off the sticker price (or even better?) myself, but CCC saved a lot of hassle.  I seriously thought about buying the 2011 model at that price, but after using the CCC quote as leverage on the used ET pirce, the used ET (11000 km) still ended up being $4k less than new, all in.  But I was VERY close to buying the new model - and I would never have considered it without using CCC.  On the other hand, I doubt there are any good deals on the new 2012 Accent (especially if there are supply issues as you've mentioned).  The 2011 ET is an older model, with a higher base price and far more room to haggle.  So maybe CCC won't be very helpful in your case.  But the service is cheap ($40), so even if they don't get you a great price, no biggie...

Make sure you post again with impressions after you pick it up!

Thanks for your input...i've used CCC before, but never on such a new vehicle, hence why i was apprehensive on using the service. However like you said it's only $40, so there's not much to lose. Not to worry i will report back with my impressions.

I've bought both my Hyundais from Bank. I walked in, told them what I was looking for and said that I had exactly 5 minutes to make a decision. Both times left with a car.
My in-laws bought their Santa Fe from Myers on Palladium. Equally as good (if you've done your homework and know how to "deal" with dealers)

I would NOT EVER take my Hyundai to Bank for service!

My Entourage and my in-laws' Santa Fe are serviced at Myers on Palladium, Laura and Will at service desk are very good to deal with. The mechanics are good, no complaints from here. My Entourage is there right now.
