I guess I'm lucky Jenkins Hyundai didn't have my car. I bought a 2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo which had a window sticker price of $23,925. Also, the turbo was very hard to find at the time and many dealers were selling for $1,000 above sticker. I wanted a white or silver automatic and after two weeks of searching I found one at Red Hoagland Hyundai in Winter Haven. I first looked on KBB and they gave me the trade in price for my Mazda 3 and the price I should pay for the Hyundai. I drove the 75 miles down Hwy 27 to Red Hoagland and told them the price I should pay for the Hyundai was $22,600 and the amount for my trade. That salesman said wait a minute, and came back and said you have a deal. It was the best car dealer experience I've ever had.

I did all my searching on http://www.autotrader.com/ All dealers are included. You can set a parameter such as I did as dealers within 100 miles. You can select the make, model, options and price and search away all day. When a dealer has the car you want, go to http://www.kbb.com/ and it will tell you the price you should pay and what your trade in is worth at a dealership.
