3 Tellurides avaliable NOW! July 20th Update - 1 in 5 KIA dealers NATIONWIDE JD Power 2020 Dealer of Excellence Award

Ha ha! Well I thought I saw you mention you wanted to get another SX, but this time FWD. So I thought of you because I know you are familiar with this dealer.
But if you don’t want the Telly, I recommend trading your Mazda 3 in for Porsche Macan S.

Oh Yeah!

You're reading my mind. I did mention wanting a second FWD... but I think we are ok with 1 Telluride for now. But I have been seriously thinking about a Macan for fun. I search a couple of times per week. Used... not new... How does it compare to a Cayenne? Is the S much better than the base? I need to test drive an S. Neighbor got a base, and I drove it a little, but couldn't really get the feel for it yet.
 
Great minds think alike...I am thinking of buying one used also! But it will have to wait a couple years...still need to buy this damn Telluride!
I haven’t driven a Macan or a Cayenne...heck, I have never even drove a Porsche! But I was thinking since you already have a big SUV, this would be a logical choice. Porsche is #1 in reliability in CR for 2020, and also the number 1 rated compact luxury SUV.
This is also a pretty cool review of the S, if you haven’t seen it:
 
I bought a Hyundai Palisade from Huffines Plano, I live in Houston, and never set foot in the dealership. Everything was done electronically. Also arrange your own shipping and don't let the dealership do it, they will mark up the shipping costs. The most efficient way is to use a broker.
Who did you use for shipping?

So I'll chime in here, own a 2016 Cayenne S e-Hybrid, skip the Macan unless you get a GTS or Turbo. I think I'm around 416-430 HP (at least that's what they rated it, it's more for sure). Just friggen do it. Trust me. We have it as our 2nd vehicle. Now maintenance is not cheap, but so far only regular scheduled maintenance (and I got an ext. warranty).

Fit an finish is line none other, have to smell the leather in it... makes me smile every time I get in. Hit the pedal and wow, thrown back in my seat. My wife likes it because it's getting 58 mpgE on average and can go 15 miles on a charge (not a ton but does the job around here). I like it because the elect. motor gives you an extra 100hp on demand on top of the supercharger it gets boost fr

BTW, you can buy a used one like I did for a steal. New at $100k, I paid I think $52 or $54 on a car with 16,800 miles and 18 months old.

Thanks, I was actually going to PM you about your Cayenne experience! My concern with the Macan is the size. I fit ok in the front - maybe a bit tight, but the back seat is quite compressed. I was just searching yesterday and saw some good deals on that E-hybrid Cayenne - looks very attractive. I'll have to check that out soon.

We should probably move this discussion out of this thread... I accidentally hi-jacked Donovan's sales thread.

If anyone is looking for Donovan's inventory - he has a white SX FWD / Butterscotch currently available for sale - go to first post in this thread - he keeps it updated.

I ordered the Black Copper SXP AWD Dune Nappa. Does he deliver to Newark, Delaware?

I'm sure the Black Copper SXP he has inbound is sold already... but @DonovanHuffinesCorinth could let you know if it becomes available. Unfortunately, even if someone backs out, they generally call their waiting customers first. I'm sure Muncie will come through for you eventually... three more months would only put you at a 6 month wait. They have 4 SXP inbound this month - so that's good news! Highest month yet - and it's not over!

New to this. Can't believe they're selling for over MSRP! Are you still offering them AT MSRP? We haven't even driven one yet, but like the VERY good reviews and want a new SUV. We're planning on being in the DFW area next Tuesday/Wednesday and are going to try to find some to test drive and figure out what options we want, etc. Once we've done this, I'll call/text about coming in and talking about ordering one? How painful is it to order one? How much deposit? Is delivery price guaranteed? Are there any add on fees/costs?
 
You still haven't gotten your car from Muncie? What number are you on their list? Any update this week on when you might get it?
