Just an update.

I bought my Telly from hilltop Kia back in March at msrp. Both my sisters in law loved the car and been thinking about getting one.

Sister in law #1 placed an order for SXP-T not so long ago with Hilltop. Last week they reached out saying that they have EXP-NF edition unspoken for, she was not interested but passed window sticker to her sister who has been on the fence but decided to go for it!!
Car arrived last night, transaction completed At MSRP and you got another happy customer.

Black exterior/ black interior Night fall!! Looks amazing!
 
Nice, congrats to SIL #2! Has SIL #1 moved into KFOS yet? I also have an SXP order with Hilltop - a Kdealer order - so it's always interesting to see when others placed theirs

Congratulations! I put money down with Moe at Hilltop for an SX-P Nightfall in Moss Green with black leather. Should be coming in mid September. I am pleased that other folks have had good experiences at that dealership. Hopefully the delivery/finance portion will go well. Sold my 2019 Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring to buy the Terlluride.

Ordered mine from Hilltop on 7/23 and in Kdealer now waiting for KFOS. SX-N/T/P Glad to see it will be worth the wait. Flekke could you tell me please what you paid in the doc/prep fee by Hilltop? Tips for the Finance dept. I have been working with them since May and have had a very good experience so far.

I have a dealer allocation SX reserved with Moe in early August. ETA was 10/2, but just slipped to 10/30. Eager to get my hands on it!

Awesome! Found Hilltop because of this site recommendations. Looks like we all found a diamond in the rough. Good luck to us all

Kdealer submitted 7/11, but have been working with them since 5/12. Apparently, their queue is ordered by when they first receive the customer’s information

Will be a while. They’re a low to low-mid volume dealer. You can check FC to see what their historical SXP allocation has been and start to work backwards from there. I began working with them in May and, at the time, they told me 6-8 months

Not a high volume dealer for sure! That being said, seems no shady practices!

I was lucky and took over someone else’s order so didn’t have to wait 8 months.

Oakland and Steven creek Kia dealers are higher volumes.. but crazy markups!

I’ve found a couple, including Hilltop, but they’re all low volume. Which dealer in CO did you go through? How’s your experience been with them?
