• 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...

A friend of a friend told us that a Black Edition SX is a possibility this Summer but it's not confirmed. At this point only Rumor until further information becomes available. So until the God's speak... We wait.

Kia, to their credit, is listening.
I can't even imagine what a black edition will do to wait times.
 
Any thoughts on what that may include? Seeing as how the SX already is black wheels and all, wonder what else they will do...
 
We were promised a special edition Stinger after the Yellow launched. It never came and was scrapped. Sometimes they are a Go and other times a No.

Probably black everything out. No chrome or satin anywhere.
 
I seen this online a few weeks ago and one of the dealers was calling it the midnight package 06ED01C7-42CC-4063-A551-1B2C59F24FED.webpD7E07CAC-C3EA-46B5-A52C-96894A0B9E56.webp
 
I would be interested in that on my Ebony SXP if it were made available before my car gets built.

All I want for Christmas is a Black/Butterscotch SX with Tow package. I am starting to think it will be more like Valentine’s Day or Easter before it actually does get here.

Was that in Canada? I noticed the blacked out S model wheels which I think is what comes on the Canadian SX models as well. I see the factory fog lights which leads me to believe it is an SX though so guessing Canada. From what I can tell from the picture its Plasti-Dip on all the silver pieces from the wheels up tot he roof bars which honestly is a great look. Though I personally don't love it on the Moss Green, Im sure others will. I had a very good shop near me quote $500-750 to "de-chrome" my SXP when it arrives in this way so would be very interested to know if an actual Black Edition is coming for sure.

@Jason Fox - When is the next Dealer Meeting? Does Kia usually announce things like that at those meetings?
 
Kia floated the idea of a black accent option during the focus group. I believe that they are under consideration of offering this some time in the future.

Bienvenidos mr goshhkia guy. Glad you could join the forum and share such valuable information in a stale thread. Especially by replying to one of our top dealer's posts from... November 2019!!! Not to mention all of this has been posted more than a week ago in the 2021 Telluride Training Material thread. So crack open a bud light, mr goshhkia, and keep sharing such valuable info. Maybe on your second post you'll share something that we need to read.

I know you like to patrol this place and try to avoid double postings of info but that was really snarky. I know sometimes things don't come across the way we mean them when put in text but dang man, that was rough.

100% agreed. Seems to be getting a little overboard lately, but again, it's hard to read intent online, but that, as well as some other posts lately have been getting rough.

Yep ... they talked about this during the focus group last year. I think that Kia saw that users were wanting to black out all the chrome on their Telluride's and saw an opportunity to offer this as a factory option

Okay, fine, I'll delete it. Was just a joke. There are many fake accounts that post needless info. Why do people reply to old threads? I have no idea, but I guess thats the nature of a forum.

So you know, I actually really appreciate you trying to eliminate double posts and then also linking people to previous threads discussing their issue or questions. It’s really helpful to the posters because sometimes seach just isn’t giving you what you need and it keeps the boards really nice.

BS it's a joke. It's how you roll. I wonder how many new/old members you've ran off in the last year? You know the saying. "Take a few minutes off, you don't want to be a &@$%€£ your whole life."

"So you know, I actually really appreciate you trying to eliminate double posts and then also linking people to previous threads discussing their issue or questions. It’s really helpful to the posters because sometimes seach just isn’t giving you what you need and it keeps the boards really nice."

It's a car specific forum. Most subjects over the years have been duped numerous times. Sometimes, those guys who wore diagonal orange belts in elementary school have never gotten over their ego trip and designate themselves as the Dupe Police.
