Deflation? I bought a $28,300 MSRP car for less than the $21,599 Kizashi SE back in 2010.

Since SUVs and crossovers are selling well, there's good deals on sedans. I saw an advertisement for $6,750 off a Hyundai Sonata Limited 2.4L, 2.0T Sport, or 2.0T Limited. Then I found out you can get an additional $1000 for being an Uber driver and it was really easy to sign up. It took about 15 minutes to apply and wait a day for them to do a background check. The negotiated price was $17,900 ($28,300 - $2,600 dealer disc - $6,000 rebate - $1000 Uber - $750 HMF rebate) and out the door for $19,500. I remembered my Kizashi was $20,200 out the door in October 2010.
What I like about the Sonata Limited 2.4L compared to my Kizashi:
+Much more interior room and trunk, good for wife and 2 kids
+Leather seats , fronts heated
+Power drive rand passenger seats, no memory though like on our Kizashi
+Sunroof
+7" Touchscreen with backup camera
+Blind spot detection and warning
+Android Auto/Apple Carplay
+Push button start - our Kizashi had this
+Proximity trunk (trunk opens by itself when you're behind it a few seconds
+Proximity light behind door handle
+6-speed automatic compared to CVT
+Drive mode which adjusts steering effort, shift points, and climate control
+Homelink mirror
+LED tailights
+5 yr/ 60,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty
+Tire pressure monitor that displays psi on the screen
If someone is looking to replace their Kizashi, check out the Hyundai Sonata 2.4L Limited or 2.0T (Sport and Limited). Don't forget to sign up to be an Uber driver to save $1000. I'm still keeping my Kizashi at 129,000 miles and drive it til the wheels fall off.
