Title: mid year sale? (aus)
Post by: snowcherry on May 10, 2009, 05:18:43

i'm seeing ads for a mid year sale currently but when i click on them i'm not seeing anything new. it shows the SX is a drive away price which i think it has been for awhile now? does anyone know if there is anything new in this 'sale'?

thanks  :)

Well we were browsing back in February and there was a similar deal with basically $2k off the drive away price but they were only for 2008 models.

We just ordered our 09 plate Steel Gray SR on the road with a lot of free extras for $27,500. :)

Delivery next week. YAY

It's a manual and we got:

• bonnet protector
• floor mats (the i30 carpet ones not the generic rubber ones)
• bluetooth
• ipod cable
• alloy wheel lock nut set
• 12months rego

Then the price of metallic paint was added on but we still got them lower than their original 'mid year sale' offer.
Cash, no trade in and a husband that is a great negotiator all probably helped.

My dad always says "If you don't make them laugh with your first offer, you will always wonder what they would have taken for it"

Jen - looks  like a really good set of extras there
i was quoted $500 to install the bluetooth and over $100 for the mats for example.
and a years rego to!
