I paid $24,585. Minus $2500 in rebates (NY auto show, loyalty and the standard), the final price was $22,085.
Out the door with all the taxes, conveyance fees, etc, was $26,588 (not including the rebates). Monthly payment will be $340.
Can you please provide the residual and money factor for a AWD V6 EX, 36 months, 15K miles a year? Thanks.
I've got kids, will probably need to carpool other people's kids soon, and need the third row to cart bigger eople around at times. I like the ease of driving the Sorento since I used to driving smaller SUVs or a sedan, but should I think of the Borrego if the price is right? I saw that it was manufactured in 12/08. What do you guys think would be a good deal on this car pre-rebates, etc?
I am wary of buying a car that is discontinued, but was encouraged by the positive reviews on the Borrego forum, but worry about maintenance, repairs costs in the future.
Thanks.

I was told that my Mountaineer was a terrible car by Toyota and yet the so called resale ended up being great and to top that off the Dealer sold it within 10 days after I left it with them. The Mountaineer was far superior in comfort and gadgets than the Highlander and Pilot back in 2004. I also thought it looked so much better. I'm glad I didn't listen to the naysayers and bought what I liked and needed at the time.
2011 Sorento V6 EX, MSRP $31,280
Drive off $2747, 36 mo/12,000 miles
Cap Cost $27,520
Monthly $314 plus tax
$400 Termination fee (which dealer swears they can't waive).

I bought 2011 Kia Sorento LX for $19,988 plus TTL. My trade was 1999 Honda CRV with 169500 miles, broken windshield and dented bumper for $2000.00. Credit Union financing 3.2% for 60 mos. Dealer was in Central Texas.
Dealer is correct about lease end fee but it should be paid at lease end, not upfront. At least that's my experience.
MSRP: $34,880
Invoice: $33,150
Selling price: $31,565, less $1,000 KIA rebate, less $1,000 competitive rebate, + $99 doc fee, + TTL.
So price = $29,566.
Now that I have a baseline, I'm setting my target at $29,100.
By way of comparison, this may help. Here is the first quote I received on a different Sorento:
MSRP - 34880.0 - INVOICE - 33150.00
Selling price - 31565.00 - 1000.00 kia rebates = 30565.00 - 1000.00 kia loyalty or competitive = 29565.00
Plus VA tax,VA tags and 99.00 doc fee
Or perhaps a little more fine-tuned would be to say $1,500 under invoice, then apply whatever rebates you qualify for.
That's where I am now, and trying for another $200-$300 off that. If I can get $300 below that I'll feel like I got a great deal.
Beautiful car fully loaded except for sun roof or DVD entertainment center. First tank averaged 22.9 mpg.
I now offered them $1,000 with zero deductable at any dealer and we are waiting for their reply.
Has anyone bought an extended warranty thru KIA? Your thoughts?
Just wondering how we did in comparison to other deals?
Also, finalized negotiations today on the extended warranty with the same dealer.
I'm purchasing a 10 yr/100,000 mi. extended Kia warranty, zero deductible for $1,350. Dealer mailing me the contract today...how does that price look for an extended warranty?
Thanks,
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Can you let me know what dealership and the city you bought from. Looking to by the same SX ,
Thanks and much appreciated.
Good Luck with your search!
After disputing these tactics we still bought our Kia Sorento SX knowing that we were getting it for $1,600 under invoice. As for the interest rate, I'll just switch my 4.99 interest rate down to a 3.40 interest rate with my own CU as soon as I get the registration in the mail.
Our deal included an additional $1,500 rebate on the SX plus a $1,000 competitive rebate for a total sale price of $4,100 under invoice.
Sure there tactics are BS but you can't beat the deal. Just go in prepared knowing what the invoice price is (KBB or EDMUNDS) as a reference and have your ducks in a row, read the fine print on the ad, then grab your deal!
I tried getting Glendale Kia to match the deal and they couldn't come close.
Were happy with the deal, best of all the Sorento SX is great!
I'm wondering if anyone know's when the new '12 is coming out. Since the '11 came out so early this year I'm hoping the 12 comes out early next. I'm trying to decide if I should buy now or wait till year end clearances? Any opinions? Also, in regards to pricing, it seems everyone talks about the EX and SX, has anyone got the LX, and more specifically the AWD LX, if so, what kind of deal have people gotten. I'm not concerned with taxes and state specific stuff.
thanks in advance.

Google "Orange County Register", newspaper. Go to website and click on "Deals", then click "automotive". Select Garden Grove Hyundai Dealership who also sells Kia.
The Sorento LX sale price is $16,808, (MSRP=$23,305.
The Sorento SX sale price is $24,888, (MSRP =$32,990.
This price is if you qualify for all the rebates including military, college grad, etc. You just can't beat these prices.
We bought from Kia Depot in Santa Ana but they don't have their ad this week. I'm not from So. Cal but we drove 225 miles to get this deal on our 2011 SX and paid $1,600 under invoice before any rebates. Check it out!
