What did you pay for your KIA Telluride?

Just ordered mine today.
SX Limited Nightfall (Midnight in Canada) for $60,000 all in (taxes, shipping).


Pretty happy with that. Now the wait.....hoping it is not too long. I was told that Kia is back to full production, so that’s a positive.
 
Wow, I knew this was a hot car, but 5-10K over MSRP? That is insane, and I feel so much better about *only* paying $2K over list price. I wasn't happy about that. This is the first car I haven't gotten for invoice price....

I did have a chance to get a Dark Moss S for list and even worked $1000 back, but someone was waiting for a credit check on it. They ended up buying it with 13% interest! $1000 a month. OUCH. Went home defeated and the dealer called the next day saying a Dark Moss EX was coming in and I had first dibs. Lucky!

13%, people are stupid. I have a feeling there will be tons of used tellurides after all the repos. People love to overextend themselves.

I just got a SX Nightfall Snow White with Espresso Brown Interior. $3K above MSRP. Had to go to South Carolina to pick it up. Not usually a fan of White but love the way it looks with the blacked out details.

Congrats!! She does look sweet! Welcome to the forum. Lots of good information here and good discussions.
 
Picked mine up yesterday, they had a deal $500 off MSRP if finance through Kia, $47.560.00 -$500.00. That’s an Everlasting Silver SX with Nightfall and towing package. Another dealer called me same car only with Prestige pack added for $60,000 OTD, said they marked it up $6800 over MSRP. Really wanted Prestige but not for that price.C619935C-4F2B-4698-87DF-CDA8E952788E.jpeg

Wow. She looks great!! Love the silver and black combo!!! Congrats!
 
I paid a similar price as Dschneider on Saturday. It's a 2021 SX Nightfall Black and had everything on it except the Prestige package, tow kit and roof rack. I paid $47800 and while they wouldn't negotiate on price it was at the MSRP. I got the 500 deduction for financing via Kia, and they agreed to add the roof rack for no cost. I was also given really good terms on my trade-in, more than I was anticipating to be honest. This was at a dealer in central (Harrisburg/Lancaster area) PA and most here seem to be selling at MSRP based on my most recent experience even though they're flying off the lots same as elsewhere.

I drove down to New Port Richey FL from Brooklyn, NY to Friendly KIA. Very nice and quick, had put down a $1000.00 deposit on Friday drove down, picked up on Monday. They had the car waiting and was out in and hour and a half. They gave me more than expected for my 2013 Chrysler Town and Country Limited.

God that is a beautiful vehicle, getting the same with Prestige and Dune interior. CANNOT wait.
 
If anyone finds a good deal in southern california please let us know. I am getting really annoyed Kia Cerritos and Carson in particular keep wasting my time.
Congrats to all you lucky guys who picked one up!

Car Pro Kia in Huntington Beach, CA was a bad dealer even when they are recommended by Costco Auto Program. There's no discount price for 2021 Telluride, so they want $7K over MSRP.

Congrats! Which dealer in CO?
Spradley Kia in Pueblo I was working with Vincent super easy transaction. They said they could ship as well but it was about 1200 around 1 dollar per mile. But we found a flight for 100 one way from San Diego into Colorado Springs so it was cheaper and my husband has some time to be able to drive it back here!

Also Vincent is going to pick him up from the airport! But yes so excited! The prices here in Southern California are more than we wanted to pay. I hope you find one soon! Take the time to find exactly what you want and know what you are willing to pay for it. From what I hear it will be worth it!
