Why is it that dealers won’t honor pricing that is on their website? I called about a 2022 Kona listed on site for $29,492 and was told that price is only for cash deals or financing. Then I called another dealer about a Kona listed for $27,971 - down from $30,990. Was told it was a mistake. Yet 2 days later it hasn’t been corrected. I think car dealers are primarily unscrupulous and out to screw buyers in any way they can.
lol. The price on their site did what it was supposed to, get your clicks.

At least you’re calling and not going in person. You’re already a level 2 player.

This generally happens when there are different purchase and lease incentives.

Yes, and also advertised price is always for purchase. Lease price is advertised as $/mo

Yes, this is right.
They were just answering the above statement, there wasn’t much to be helpful.
Translation, sometimes the ‘prices’ include benefits from the OEM (such as incentives) and those incentives only appear if the car is ‘purchased’ or if the car is leased.
Welcome to the world of Car Shopping. And good of you to CHECK ahead of time before going into a bad deal.

Many times dealers will advertise prices that include every single possible incentive. There’s no way you qualify for all of them.

Also, more often than not, their “Due at signing” is actually money down for cap cost reduction, so remember to add destination, tax, dmv and other fees for real drive offs.
