• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

I've been waiting for a looooong time to be able to post this.

It happened.

After ordering from the legendary Kia of Muncie, our Gravity Gray/Dune Brown SXP NF Telluride came in today (holy long name, Batman).

Our salesman was Zach Humes, and I can't stress this enough: the man was an actual piece of heaven to work with. He was ultra-communicative, prompt in responses, and helped in literally any way he OR I could think of.

If you're having any hesitation from getting that Costco pricing from Kia of Muncie from out of state, don't. If you're willing to wait, you'll arguably have the best dealer experience of your life.

The shipping to Northern Virginia was seamless (aside from a few superficial scratches and lotso road salt from the drive), as we just paid Zach $850 and he set up literally everything.

I'm in love with the spec I chose. The Gravity Gray's metallic flecks in the paint sparkle in the sun and pair even better than Ebony Black with the NF black trim.

I can't describe how fantastic the Dune Brown Nappa Leather is, both in look and feel. It's absurd that this top-of-the-line Range Rover interior (and exterior tbh) is in a sub-$50K Kia.

Holy heckin' wow. I have my dream car. It's surreal. Amazing.

Congrats NotlansIdea Just picked up mine today as well after two years of trying to buy one with my specific trim and color combo than waiting for my custom order to show up. Thing is amazing and you are so right about KIA really stepping up their game and giving this thing the full luxury look and feel.

Congrats and thats a great looking combo!
Thank You, I was torn between the Grey or Dune interior but stuck with the Grey at the end. when I saw it I was glad I stuck with the Grey as it looks great with the black and white exterior

Congratulations! I ordered this exact same car. Very few gravity gray with the dune are ordered or manufactured, which continues to make me a bit nervous. Just not a popular color combination for some reason... Maybe because very few non-luxury cars offer a rich brown leather interior. But Mercedes, Porsche, BMW, and other luxury European brands do!
What is your impression on how the dune and gray work together? What were your initial thoughts when you saw it for the first time?
Would you mind sharing more pictures, especially showing the dune with the exterior paint?

It should be illegal how beautiful this exterior/interior color combo is. I genuinely don't understand why there aren't more of this combo (hey, more for us).

The Nightfall & Gravity Gray exterior has an understated & elegant, yet menacing and aggressive feeling to it.

The Dune Brown interior is fantastic. Halfly because of the gorgeous, deep Nappa Leather, and halfly because it's the only color with the BLACK Alcantara-esque headliner. That dark headliner makes all the difference to envelop you in the interior. Unfortunately for 2021, Dune Brown is another $280+ ON TOP OF the Prestige Package... but I have this to say: worth it.

I tried to go out and take some good pics of the Gravity Gray and Dune Brown combo together (I honestly haven't seen any on the forum). In person, just walking to and around the car, I rarely see the two colors together, but even if you do, they blend wonderfully.

Some of the best pictures of the Dune I’ve seen. Really shows the rich color everyone describes.
No question in my mind you and I made the right choice! Amazing!
And rare!

Quite right, Spec Buddy. Lots of pics on this forum of Dune Brown are overexposed, but I made sure that I didn't do that to you lol

If you want any other pics, just specify what ya want to see (I don't have the tow package though, so I can't do pics of that lol) and I'll try to take some pics for you!
 
The nightfall gravity gray would have been my first choice if our other car already wasn't that color. Would not have thought to pair it with the dune brown but man that looks nice

Zaiwhat my prior car was white with gray interior and that combo is also great (particularly when it gets hot out). I wish the wolf gray had more interior options but I'm still very happy with what I got. Just shows you how awesome the telluride looks in any color combo

Gorgeous ride and welcome to the world of Telly ownership.

Please take some side shot doors open videos so we can see the Dune to the Moon contrasted with the Gravity Gray and post them here if you can:


Welcome to the Dune Brown Gang !! :)

I’m thinking they won’t switch over to the new badge till the 2022 model.

I think it's only 2022 models that will have the updated Kia badging. I'm honestly fine with the current badging because the NF Edition blacks them out.

Great captures of the color combination!! Thanks for taking the time! I too have this exact combination on order and at times hesitate only because of the way other photos have captured the Dune Brown. I bounced between the Butterscotch and Dune Brown. Your photos capture a rich tone for the brown and I love what I see. :) I was hesitant to order the Butterscotch only because I didn't know just how bright the interior would become. All of these decisions made sight-unseen. 😳
