Order to delivery time

Yeah I am waiting on a Nightfall, but it is Glacial White so I have to wait for those to start going out. I am a little worried, they havent made the combination I have ordered, SX NF White Butterscotch, at all in about a month.
I have the same combination. Haven’t seen anyone else with that color combo posting any updates.
 
Hey all, just wanted to share the good news!!!! Today I got extremely lucky and finally got my hands in to the trim and color combo I wanted at my local dealers which at the beginning was originally charging $8,000 over MSRP. Long Story short the sales man made a mistake and gave the general manager the wrong stock number (which was a moss/black SX non prestige) when I sat with the manager he said make me an offer, I said 49 (sticker price 48,162) and Ill take it home home today, to my surprise he immediately agreed thinking it was the the other SX (sticker price 45,135). It was 9pm store was closing so I left and came back to this afternoon to pick up when the manager saw he immediately said "you stole this truck you lucky MF" lolz!!! no turn back we had an agreement, signed contract and walked away a happy customer (SX Prestige 2021 Moss/Dune brown) as I'm writing this history I still can believe got so lucky!!!! Here some pictures of my new RIDE!!!!
Wow @Julian0328 that’s great to hear, congrats!
 
Wow...production dropped off quite a bit yesterday. Only 214 new VINs on failcat today. @DruKe is the tool working correctly? Wondering if it stalled out again like it did a couple weeks ago.

I can't get it to load at the minute. Could be an issue on my end though.

Oh no!
 
Just checked FC, unaware others had issues accessing. It worked for me. It showed 214 VINs like @MarcinTexas said, and they pumped out TONS of SWPs. Wonder if this is the final block for that color

Seems really weird that production dropped so low. One of the lowest production dates since production kicked back in post the COVID shut down.

Agreed. Hopefully there’s more to the story

Yeah - I'm sure we'll find out something soon with all the Spies we have around :-)
 
Hi, new to the forum. Been reading through most of this thread and I understand that wait times can vary based on many factors. We placed our order on 3/7 so we are 5 1/2 months into it. After pressing my dealer for information, they told us that they can look three months out and we are nowhere on the list, shouldn't this have been entered into KFOS by now and shouldn't we have some sort of ETA, even if the ETA is three months out? When we ordered they told us 6 months, so due to COVID, it's reasonable to add another month or two to that, so shouldn't we be within the window of knowing when the car is slated to arrive?

Depends on how many people are in line in front of you.

You should be able to ask if you are not in Kfos how many people are infront of you in kdealer to get converted over to KFOS

Which store did you order from.. Is also depends on how many they are getting.. what trim did you order

I am in the same boat. I ordered on 3/14/2020 and have heard nothing. I ordered an SX Green Moss/Dune Brown PRE Package. I am hoping to hear something soon.

Picked up our Black Copper SX-P with tow package today. We ordered 1/30/20. It arrived Friday 8/15/20 but due to all the rain and flooding we delayed picking it up until today. Installed the Brenthon Badges. Plan to get the paint protection film installed Thursday. Plan to contact Jason on the extended warranty. Like some others commented, the pictures don't do it justice. It really drives and ride well. Now I need to get familiar with all the new features.
I'm presuming yours is a 2021. Did you install the badges? My EX 2021 seems to have an "integral" bracket on the front grill. Unlike the tutorial videos, it seems that I would have to remove the entire grill, or possibly heat/pry the KIA badge loose from the bracket. Any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

We ordered from FL112, 2020 Snow White Pearl/Gray SX-P/T(it was converted to a 2021). The reason I came seeking advice is that they've had a few allocations of SX-P's and SX-P/T's. I called since one recently came in in the same color combo(looked in up on the site) , it just didn't have the tow package but had been cancelled by a customer. We tried to see if they would let us take that one, even though it was missing some options we ordered, most importantly the tow package. The dealer insisted that the only way they would sell that one to us was if they installed all the missing accessories(put aside the differences between factory and dealer installed tow packages), charged us $1200 due to MSRP changes(which is really only $400, but we are OK with that) but then another $5300 for the missing accessories (which was basically the tow package, illuminate scuff plates and mud guards). We obviously passed, but then when we pressed them on our order, they've now gone silent.

Oof, that’s rough, sorry to hear that. Have you put any money down on a deposit for your original order?

Sounds shady... forcing you to add anything.. and then on top of that an additional 5,300...
