Dealer Markup

Ramsey charges markups too. Went there as well but not crazy like 4000 to 6000 markups.

Just curious... do you mean their markups are $4,000 to $6,000 or that they’re less than that? I took my test drive there in Feb. 2019. They had a Telly EX, the first in the area. Should’ve placed the order then and grabbed my Founder’s Day free payment, but whatcha gonna do?

To me, any markup is crazy, but over $2,000 is really brazen.

They are 4000 to 6000. High but seen higher elsewhere

Yoinks... I guess that’s better than Fette or Jack Daniels, but still way too rich for my blood. Nutley wins again!

Its not limited by state, we have saw NJ dealers charging $20K over MSRP. I have two dealers within 10 miles of me in Maryland, one is charging over MSRP, once is matching kia.com dollar for dollar. If the dealer is charging extra, just look for another dealer.

Gunther Kia in Ft. Lauderdale, FL is charging almost $10 000 over MSRP!!! Look for another dealer.
 
Just got this email for a special low price. They used to be at MSRP.

There are 6 dealerships in the St. Louis area. 3 agreed to sell at MSRP. We picked one up yesterday from Napleton for MSRP minus incentives ($40,750 total). Much better than Suntrup Kia that wanted $44,500 for the same vehicle Saturday and let us walk. ...For those shopping, Fredrico Woodriver and Lou Fuz also agreed to MSRP.

Did you have to pay for the Napleton Experience as well (to my knowledge, it’s around $1,300)?

Anyone have any leads on a dealer in AZ or near there that isn't charging a $5k markup? I can NOT find anyone willing to go to MSRP or even close. We're looking for white EX AWD with black interior, 2nd row bench, and tow. Don't want premium. Don't care about nightfall. Just want what we want, and we can't find anything for under $50k out the door! Thanks!

My mistake. I thought you were looking for the same but black/black, I missed the white request.

Do you get many coming in that are unsold?

Yes these are the ones I have incoming that aren’t sold
 
Okay! Found the car of my dreams at MSRP with a few bonus extras! Working with TJ Nolasco at Medved Kia in Wheatridge, CO. We pick up the car next week! Can't recommend this dealership enough. They've overnighted the paperwork and things are going so smoothly.
 
All the dealers in the SF Bay Area and LA Area are charging anywhere between $2k - $6k mark up above the MSRP. I called a dealer in Houston, TX and they are not doing that. CA is the only state that it is charging extra for this car. I guess is the law of supply and demand.
The dealership in Covina, CA wants $10K over sticker for a wolf grey nightfall. Question: if I buy in another state. will I have any trouble registering it in LA County?

We bought from a dealership that was getting a nightfall wofle grey in shortly and they are selling at MSRP in Saint Louis, Napleton Kia. Ask for Ben or MJ.
