What did you pay for your KIA Telluride?

We are in the same boat! I have some road trips coming up on Memorial Day weekend and at the end of June. I am trying to be patient but I've grown out of my 07 Rav4 and I just might settle for a top trim VW Atlas or CX-9 with the discounts they're selling at. An SX AWD in our northern Virginia area, even as far away as Delaware, are generally 1K over MSRP or more. Such a bummer. If anyone hears of anything in the area that sounds like a good deal, I'm all ears!
 
What model are you looking for? Color, trim, AWD/FWD. What matters and don’t matter?
We were looking for AWD SX in white and lighter Napa interior since many of you pointed out we can’t get butterscotch sx with prestige package. But we would have been ok with no prestige package and butterscotch interior with OTD price less than 46k.

I just came out of Lexus dealer with my purchase inquiry for 2015 lx570. Got a great deal but won’t be finalized until we are happy with the car when we come back next week. Having buyers remorse because we truly want a telluride sx

Just wait and you will get the best offer especially during end of the month and probably even better deals around memorial day. What is your location, how far are you willing to travel, what trim, color, awd/fwd?. I can try to help you find one

So you defiantly want a AWD. Prestige package doesn't really matter and Does it have to be exactly white exterior? Interior has to be butter scotch any other color preference?

Everyone really needs to be a little more patient and let Kia build some inventory. This heavy demand is causing dealers to charge MSRP and more in some cases. It's not fair to people who need a vehicle now or the folks who can wait a bit longer. Kia could reevaluate the cost of the Telluride and reduce incentives down the road. This potentially could adverisly effect future buyers as well as Kia.

Hope so! I'm in Northern VA (Dulles, Chantilly, Fairfax dealers are the closest), and I'm willing to travel up to maybe 150-200 mi for a really great deal. I'm interested in the SX trim only. I don't need the Prestige package but most SX trims are equipped with that package right now. I'm only looking at AWD, and I'm pretty flexible on exterior color but I know I do not want grey interior (got some messy kids). Thanks for taking a look around!
 
Keep in mind if you order it, the incentives may no longer apply as they have ending dates.
We'll find out what happens next Wednesday wheen the current incentives expire. The mgr at the dealer where I ordered an SX Prestige on 4/3 thinks they will be extended. Fingers crossed.
 
We ended up having to go to our back up plan, jumping into a CX-9 Grand Touring. The dealers are willing to reduce by $5K below MSRP, which is really good savings. I made lot of inquiries all of NJ, some PA locations, no one had one in stock, if they did not willing to negotiate a fair deal. Today a salesman from Jack Daniels KIA reached out to me via Text message stating he has 2 SX AWD with Tow pkg, and adventure pkg. One is white and one gravity grey, he quoted $53K and goes to mention that some dealers are charging $20K over MSRP. Enough said!!! It is a freaking KIA!!!!

I mentioned it before jack Daniels kia in NJ is a rip off.

For some reason, I can't reply to your messages. Not sure why. It looks like you've found what I've found in my area. I'm looking at $42K OTD with SX AWD Prestige, $40K without Prestige. I would much prefer without the Prestige as it's not important to me, but all SX trims tend to come with Prestige from what I've seen in my area.
 
Wait don’t rush trust me you will find a great deal inbox me your location let me see what I can find. I can’t figure out how to inbox you on here lol

No idea how to message on here either, but if you

You found a SX AWD for 40k? Here they want 46+. Where did you find that!

I should specify I'm looking to spend that, ha! I haven't found it yet and realize it may be 6 months before that might be a possibility. I'm not sure I want to wait though!

I was "lucky" to get an order in on an AWD SX Prestige lease at MRSP. It came out to 530/mo using the Kia website lease plug in. But between now and an anticipated June delivery, incentives and MF very well could change.

I'm in the West Palm Beach, FL area.

Well to be honest $42k or $40k is really low at the moment not saying you can’t get it but will probably have to wait a few months I’ll say probably you can get one lowest with prestige is around $43.5k and without prestige around $41.5k
 
Does anyone think it's possible to get the S trim down to 33 or 34, with the deals they have going right now ( loyalty etc)? Hoping my trade can cover the dealer fee and taxes so my monthly payment to finance is around 460. Having a hard time finding that trim anywhere in Florida right now.

It def has to be white exterior & AWD. Interior has to be butterscotch if no prestige and light Napa if prestige. There are a handful of new shipments locally so we shall see. If we don’t get a good deal by next week then Lexus IS where we will remain. In the past, they quoted $50+.

That may be hard depending on where you live. I’m finding that S trims with captain’s chairs are hard to come by. Ordered mine today after haggling with multiple dealerships. If the incentives are still going when I take delivery, it will be 34,900. Best I could find.
 
Has anyone actually purchased an SX AWD (w/o prestige), total price excluding tax and tags, for $42k or less, OTD (so, with incentives applied, you parted with <$42k plus tax/tags)?

I'm planning to do a test drive in the next week or so, and then start the process to find a deal after that. I may try the Costco way, if any dealers around Oregon are participating.
