What did you pay for your KIA Telluride?

Is anyone finding a dealer in the Southern California area that will do MSRP? I found a dealer is advertising MSRP via true car but adds $1300 Cilajet coating. If that was the only markup wouldnt be horrible but hoping for straight MSRP.
I just bought a 2021 Kia Telluride SX AWD with the nightfall, prestige, and tow package at MSRP + Taxes and fees so was out the door at 54k in change at Kia of Irvine and used Annie Cuevas though I negotiated for a few weeks and was able to talk down the 5k markup to no mark up which was approved by her manager. They tried to sell me the extended warrenty at 5500 but said no as I was able to get the Kia platinum warrenty via Kia of Muncie Ind for 1500.
 
I've ordered at MSRP in North TX - very satisfied with that as it seems a lot of dealers are charging significantly more than MSRP. I was also able to order mine with the color & most important options, with perhaps a 3 month wait, we'll see. Another local dealer has a non-negotiable $895 surcharge that includes window ceramic tint, pinstriping and nitrogen in the tires. The only thing I really would have liked is the window tint but I'll probably be happier getting it done myself after delivery anyway. Military $400 rebate should still be available once the car is ready and the sales agreement gets finalized.
 
Bought our wolf grey ex for 2300 above msrp in Bridgewater NJ. I just happened to be first one to look at it after it got delivered to the dealership
hi there. who did you work with at Bridgewater? Denville wants $5K above MSRP and let me walk away with my offer to pay $2,500 over MSRP.

Call Motion Kia and ask for Howie. It was a great experience.

Hi, new to the forum. Looking for a dealer in So. California to do a nightfall sx prestige. Seems everyone wants $5k over MSRP.
 
Family KIA in St. Augustine, FL just quoted me $4300 over MSRP (by inflating my trade) on a Wolf Gray SX-P/N/T. I'm having a hard time with this since I've never, ever paid anything at MSRP in my life. Thoughts? Struggling here.

Ha, same here, last car was a Tesla and experience was so simple. Forgot how excruciating buying from dealerships is. Best so far in so cal I've seen is $5k over MSRP.

Can you buy an extended warranry from any dealer?
 
after incentives, out the door after fees etc for $40,750.99
how did you bargain around 10%. MSRP+ Including sales tax etc.. out of door could be around 44k..

We negotiated with her back in august and she couldn’t go below a 3k markup then. Congrats on getting it as MSRP! I’m curious if you bought off the lot or if it’s an incoming allocation?

When I was mulling this over, my thoughts were that the resale value of a Telluride over MSRP will be worth the same exact amount as one purchased at MSRP. So I decided to order one at MSRP and wait. The money saved by not paying over MSRP can be used towards something that will give me additional value, like home renovations or whatever.
