What did you pay for your KIA Telluride?

Thanks! The 1.9% and $1500 doesn't make sense to me because so far I haven't been able to find outside cheaper financing than 1.9% anyways.
So you're saying that even with the .9% APR I should be able to get the loyalty OR conquest?
Yes, you should be able to get either loyalty OR conquest irrespective of other offers.

yes for sure....
 
for 1% difference, 1,500 is worth it, especially if you plan to pay it off ahead of time. Either way it works out to be worth it.

The other way it can be worth it is if you have a trade in. For instance my trade in is about $12k. The $1500 off (also saves on tax in my state) makes the higher interest cheaper per month and overall. Some people are also finding cheaper interest outside of KIA, taking the $1500 with kia interest and then refinancing lower.

My mistake they offered .9 for 48 months or 1.9 for 60 months, but neither qualified for the Kia Financing $1500 back. The $1500 was for 3.9% and up.

@Jdgate For some reason I can't really find much lower. I've seen 2.9% outside of KIA but even then just going for the .9% makes the most sense. I still have some time left so I have to shop around.

Thanks for the help!

They are trying to bamboozle you. The 1.9@48 and 2.9@60 are 100% available via KIA finance. They can try and bump it up 1% to get a cut themselves. But typically if you call them on it you can get the advertised rate. My dealer tried to say 3.9@60 for the 1500. I pulled up the advertisement and they wrote it up as the 2.9@60.
 
Yep 2.9% for 60 with $1500 is current rebate. 1.9% for 60 without rebate. They are trying to dealer option you up 1% point on the 3.9%. It would be 3.9% if you did 66 months though.
 
In Canada, I got 0.9% interest over 60 months (loyalty rate) plus $1K celebration bonus.

Paid MSRP.

This would be great. Where did you find this? I am on the kia site itself and it doesn't break it down like this. It shows finance offers but has no mention of $1500 cash back.

I take that back, I found it on the dealership site itself where I bought the car. Thanks for saving me atleast $1k!

Did you already buy it? If you signed finance paperwork you already missed out.
______________________________
 
I've discovered the Kia site is not the final word...FYI I got 1.9% @ 24 Months + $1500 April 1st, no issues. Sometimes it takes a little digging but as others have said they are working you I think. Found it here

Luckily no. I just put down a refundable deposit for the car. I agreed to numbers, but we also said the numbers could change because of a possible trade-in and any possible new incentives, which thankfully I now know of.
 
Trying to read as many posts as possible but may have missed what I'm looking for...
Has anyone had any experiences purchasing in the eastern Georgia, southern SC area?
Any info would be appreciated. Not finding anyone interested in making a deal to sell a Telluride.

Hi - I’m not in GA,, but By “deal” do you mean you’re trying to pay under or at MSRP? Don’t think anyone is paying under, except when dealer incentives are factored.

By deal I just mean negotiate really. Looking for someone to get close. Offered 33K out the door for an LX with no upgrades and they wouldn’t budge. I feel like that’s a good price considering it’s over MSRP

Thats surprising since the dealers I’ve talked with in California all have at least one or two LX available that aren’t moving as fast as the EX/SX. I would suggest expanding your search area to multiple dealers to find a reasonable dealer. I had dealers trying to go $10k over MSRP with me but finally found a reasonable dealer after a couple weeks of painful patience. Hopefully someone in your region is in this forum and has recommendations.

I think you just have to keep pestering. LXs seem to move pretty slowly. I feel like one could actually negotiate a bit under MSRP on an LX before incentives but no hard data to back it up. If there is a particular car you want keep an eye on it and hit them up again every few days. I talked to about 5 dealers in the area and most were giving me absurd offers. Finally one bit for some reason.
 
Yeah that’s good advice. My plan is to wait till December and revisit. Unless someone calls to take me up on my offer. Someone will be willing at some point. I was just hoping someone near me had had some luck recently
