SX X-line timeline

[SaddieTaz]

How long did it take for your application to get approved after submission?

I got instantly approved but each loan must go through and be reviewed by a loan officer to be final, and they are way behind.

 

[SaddieTaz]

Gotcha. Yeah, just thought it was strange since I'm getting mixed signals... I called them again and reconfirmed that the rates are locked for 30 days but the loan officers may or may not honor the locked rate past that date. Plus, I haven't been getting any responses from them through their messaging system and the rep was saying that they're overwhelmed with the # of loan applications coming in recently so back logged significantly - just fyi.

As I mentioned earlier, even the promotional rate expires on me, their 3.75% APR is still the best I can find. I will still finance my car with them.

How long did it take for your application to get approved after submission?

2 biz days - mine was a pre-approval as I'm still waiting for my car to arrive at the dealership. But if you go to their car loan webpage, they now have added a fineprint saying that due to high demand, applications may take up to 3-4 weeks, just fyi.

Armco seems being overwhelmed by the high auto loan demand now.

I have Gravity Gray with Black interior, I absolutely love the color combo...My original order was for a 2022 Everlasting Silver SX-P, I changed it when my order got switched to a 2023. I went back & forth a million times between Gravity Gray and Everlasting Silver, but I thought Gravirty Gray looked better in the X-Line trim.... My last suv had gray leather interior and with young kids it didn't look good after a few years, that's why I went with Black leather interior... love it!

The silverish bumpers don't bother me like I though they would, if I ever decide to change them i'll have them painted the same color as the X-Line window trim....

Would you mind sending pics of your Gravity Gray X-Line to include what you say is the silverish bumpers? Thank you!!!

It's amazing how the color changes depending on the lighting angle. Both pictures taken at the same approximate time...

I'm still on the fence with the bumper color. I think black would be much sharper. Not a deal killer and if I just keep it as is it will be fine.

I think black would be great with all the black trim, wheels etc but at least it doesn’t stick out like a sore thumb on the Everlasting Silver as it seems to do on the other colors. For the life of me, I will NEVER understand Kia’s logic on that. Please let me know your opinion when you see it in person.

Agree and will do! It doesn't have to be black - but definitely should have been much darker as originally suggested and especially since they darken the window trim like the nightfall. Silly and frustrating decision by Kia.

Nice terracotta interior. Glad I finally am getting mine in terracotta as well after the dealer was trying to throw me a black interior but I didn't budge.

Good for you! I would have done the same thing!

The black May look better on a side by side comparison, but looking at your pictures I think it’s not bad looking at all . What I would do is after 3 years when you have road stone scratches and chips on bottom skirt I’d have it Ceramic wrapped black .

Looking at the Terra-cotta interior I’m glad I went with the black interior with my 23 Wolf Gray SXP.. Interior looks to reddish / Orange . Wish they were still offering the Dune Interior I would of ordered the Dark Moss & Dune color combo then

Talk about contrast. Terracotta is a better match with dark exterior colors such as Dark Moss or Ebony Black. I agree Wolf Gray going with black interior looks better though.

I got unbelievably lucky. I wanted a Wolf Grey, terracotta X-line. Went to my local dealer and asked about that set up. The saleswoman says, "give me a sec I need to check on something." Turns out someone had ordered that exact car 8 months ago. The planned buyer hadn't return anyone's calls for over a month. Saleswoman checks with manager and a few hours later it was mine.

Fantastic, did you also pickup a lottery ticket on the way home? Congratulations!!!
