What did you pay for your KIA Telluride?

Can't get the locator tool to load...

Try a PC. Sometimes it doesn't work on an iPhone. Loaded fine in Chrome.

Also, same info here presented a bit differently. TellyStats

But really same info as the Google sheet you used before.
 
I'm waiting too. I think I'll look at the 2021 Sorento, but MRSP could be as much as the Telluride. Don't know if I could live with that.
Oh that post was from over a year ago. I ended up leasing my EX telluride 13 months ago. 😂

Wondering about expectations for price off msrp—my dealer is now taking orders but will only do it for msrp. Any ideas about negotiating price or expected rebates/incentives? Are other Kia models discounted much?
I ended up paying about 2k over msrp for my EX with premium package and trailer hitch here in SC. But on the plus side, SC has a max sales tax of $500 on car purchases.
 
Interesting how Wagner has changed its tune, at least for now — they’ve sold all of their in stock inventory, other than an LX. And while our VIN is different, it sounds like otherwise the same car as you saw. Anyhow, congrats on the gravity gray — beautiful color, and one that I haven’t seen in the Boston area yet!
Just got off the phone with Wagner. They have a black/butterscotch SX. They are asking 5k over MSRP...

Haha. Of course, they are.

Its funny that even in Covid, dealers are asking above MSRP. However, on autotrader and cars.com I am seeing many dealers dropping their prices.

Until you actually go in to buy it. Then come the "value-added" dealership packages. Try to get a firm quote for that online price or get it in a written agreement before you visit the dealership. May be very difficult.

I was told by one dealer in OH that I must've been looking at an ad which was subject to a processing error when I pressed them on the advertised autotrader proce! Haha
With this vehicle Its like dealers some how figured out how to catch lightning in a bottle but don't know how to control it. Pretty funny
 
Called Riverside KIA in SoCal, where they have a SX in gravity Gray that's been there at least 6 weeks. Inquired on price and salesman came up with the "clever" approach telling me they have $10K markup, but that "TODAY ONLY" they are doing $5k markup. I almost want to call in again just so I can talk to a different salesperson, hear them out, laugh again, and hang up.

I got a moss prestige, I think with all the buttons on it, napa black, tow leveling, lane and speed assist cruise. (I looked through the manual and wasn't missing anything) It was $50.5k before fees, taxes and finance with zero down and a net zero trade. It was about $56k with taxes and fees and will be $62k if I take loan full term. They offered me $1k extra on trade in, then other highest. I am outside of Dallas I think I could have done a little better but bought it because I was upset at my wife.

Hey guys, I’m getting my black/espresso SX “Uride” tomorrow. The 3m and ceramic coating was done today. Feeling pretty good about my price $53250 (Canadian)
this included cross bar ($800) all the taxes, dealer prep etc. and GST.
Excited in Alberta

So you essentially paid $47904 + $1895 (transport) + $115 (tire and air conditionning tax) + $800 (crossbar) + tax (5% in Alberta) and you got 3M and ceramic coating = $53250 ?

So you essentailly paid $2091 below ($49995 - $47904) the MSRP of $49995 here in Canada and you got the 3M and ceramic coating ?

This is a good price. Here in Quebec, Canada I got $2230 below the MSRP of $49995 (but no 3M and no ceramic coating), but the taxes in Quebec are 14.975 % which makes my total price a lot more expensive !!!
 
Sorry, that did not include the 3M and ceramic. I purchased that after the car deal went down😬

Purchased mine there. Call and ask to speak to Joe the GM. (not sales GM) Tell him you'll buy it today at MSRP and put $5000 down on the purchase (credit card). He gets a sale and much needed short term operating capital. See what he says.
 
Waiting for Corona pricing in a few months like 15-17% below MSRP as people stop buying... recession is coming ..
I don't see this happening. I would make a wager that it is NOT going to happen. In a few months? Sure, cars that are less popular could see a nice discount. While people have stopped buying, Kia has stopped making cars. And they were already behind on orders. Given the rave reviews, I would expect firm pricing until someone comes out with something much better. I would call the new Highlander and the Explorer a MISS. Who is next?

And by the way, in my area at least, any/all remaining Tellurides at dealers are selling. So people have not stopped buying.
 
Just for your info...if you shop there are deals...at least in Ontario, Canada. I got $4000 discount off msrp of 49995+225 for white sx awd plus frt, air tax and 13% hst. I bought a unit that was in stock in early march and got delivery in 2 days. Paid cash (no financing). At the time they had 3 sx awd units to choose between all in stock (black/black, grey/black and the white/brown which I bought). I believe lots of people order vehicles but due to the long delay in delivery are forced to buy something else. Dealers still get the vehicles.......
 
Then should wait for the supply to go up. Because I was hell bent on buying a Telluride and now thinking of it why should I spend 50k+ OTD on a Kia (I spent 45k OTD on my Sorento) if I can get a slightly used 2017+ Mercedes GLS450 for 35-40K OTD with more luxury and better performance.
