What a badly organised fiasco! Whinge! whine!
There were many comments on the Hyundai Instagram website from people who were confused on how /where to make a deposit. I eventually got to a section wanting credit card details asking for $200....not $500 like the article previously referred to had said. This was confusing.
I contacted my local Hy dealer and asked the amount and they knew nothing of the 'sale'!
I was told that the manager would contact me. I told the dealer that the 'pre-sale' finished at midnight. I received no call.
There was no projected price published and no financial incentive to actually make a deposit.
Apparently the 'surprise' and the 'sale' incentive was that you would get the car before anyone else does. 
I don't know about you, but without any other incentive (particularly financial), I would prefer to wait a few months and read roadtests and comments from owners once they have lived with their cars for a while.
Sad to say that (for me) it was a waste of time....and no...I did NOT put a deposit down.
