I have researched the Sedona I want and here is what I was quoted...For an 06' EX model with the Luxery Package and the Power Package, $26, 830 before tax and tags. I went through BJ's Wholesale Club and a dealer in NJ called me to work with me. He only had the Glacier Blue one in stock with those options and told me it would cost me $500 to do a dealer swap. So I took the pricing he gave me and went to my local dealer, Ertle in Stroudsburg, PA. They do not have the Sunset Gold/Beige Leather Int. in stock, but they are currently looking for one for me. If they find it, it will not cost me anything for them to dealer swap. They gave me a price of $26,630. I am also going to get a tow hitch on it and it is going to cost me $475 extra. Can anyone tell me if, overall, this is a good deal on the model I want? This is inclusive of the $1500 rebate that Kia has for August. Thank you in advance!

I am new to this board and I wanted to share with you some of the quotes I have gotten for a Kia Sedona EX, plus Power package and Luxury package: Invoice: $28,422 _ Dealer discount: 700$ Plus rebates: 1,500 and I own a minivan so that would be 1000$ less Total Price: 25,322 I have 3 dealers competing for my business. I had narrowed it down to 2 but a big dealer Lou Fusz promised me to beat the best price and to give me more money for my trade in. Is the $25,322 a good price? And does anybody know what the incentives are going to be for next month. I asked when the 2007 would come out and they told me that it would be in February. Is that correct? : confuse: I also got quotes for the Honda Odyssey EX-L and so far the best one is $27,768 this includes destination and according to the dealer is the best that they could do. I have 2 dealers tell me the same. Supply is limited so if I were to buy a Honda I'd have to do it this week. The saleswoman told me that the 2007 were coming in 2 weeks and that they'd be more expensive. I am still trying to decide which car to buy. I have driven the Sedona and I loved it! I am driving the Honda tomorrow to help me decide. I would like some advice. I love the Sedona but some of the posts on the problems section scared me, the vibration, the engine stalling... on the other hand I have heard good things about Honda. Any advice would be appreciated |

Your deal on the Sedona sounds good to me. I just paid $26,000 yesterday. I tried to get it for less (I have been to 6 dealerships), but since I didn't have a minivan prior to my purchase, I didn't qualify for the extra $1000 off. I had never heard of that type of rebate before! I decided to go with this dealer because he spent a full week locating the exact color and interior with the upgrades that I wanted. I know it was difficult because I spent a lot of time at dealerships looking for a certain color and they didn't have it. He went over and beyond. We took a family member with us and they ended up buying the Amanti from them. They had a very left over 2004 model that was still brand new. They sold it to them for $17k. I also asked about the 2007 models, hoping I could purchase a "leftover" 2006 model. I was told the same thing...Feb. or March. I think their 2006 came out around then...maybe even April of this year. I don't know of the incentives for next month. I do know that it was $2000 last month and they lowered it to $1500 this month. I guess the word is getting out about the Sedona and they do not need to offer a high rebate. I looked at the Oddyssey's also. All of my friends have that type or the Sienna. The room that the Kia has is a bit more and they can't touch the crash test rating that Kia has. That is the main reason I went for Kia. This is the second Kia I have owned, but the first minivan. The first one I had was amazing and I never had a problem with it. In fact, I gave the car to my nephew who needed a reliable car for college. It was a little Sephia. No bells and whistles, but a lot of pep and never broke down. I like Honda and have always heard good things about them, but I Love all the thought Kia has put into their new vehicles. Luxery, safety and style all wrapped up in one low price. I wish you luck in your purchase!

Hi, haven't posted in quite a while. Went to Keystone Kia in Allentown, PA. Real nice folks (maybe too nice?). Here is the offer on LX with roof rails as the only option, compared with what Edmunds says: MSRP INVOICE Dealer Edmunds Dealer Edmunds Base 22,995 23,195 21,700 21,890 Roof Rails 150 150 130 130 Destination 670 700 670 700 Mktg Allow --- --- 437 --- =================================================== Total 23,815 24,045 22,937.00 22,720 manufacturer rebate -2,000.00 competitive rebate -1,000.00 ========== Dealer's Offer 19,937.00 6% sales tax 1,199.76 fees 198.00 ========= 21,334.76 This deal just feels a little weird, especially since this was the only one on the lot priced this way. Keystone says it was delivered before the last price increase. 2 Questions: Good deal or not? Any ideas/info on the differences in dealer/Edmunds info? Thanks in advance! |

Replying to: younger (Sep 08, 2006 12:19 pm) We love ours too, but noticed too late that if the seat back is perpendicular to the seat, the armrests end up pointing down and are really uncomfortable. I checked all the other LX's on the lot, and they were the same, so it's probably not a defect, but poor design. And here's a weird one: The manufacturer's protective plastic on the door handles was still there at delivery. We picked up late on Labor Day, so the dealer gave us a "we owe" to take care of it, and threw in the cross rails for the roof rack at no charge as well. So I took it in two days later, and his detail kid decides to use a razor blade to get it off, and chips the paint in several places on all door handles, and still doesn't get it off. They apologized and are ordering new handles. I am not sure if that will help completely, since the part where the lock is set is independent of the handle and that also has chips. I think this dealer is really trying, but that detail kid was dumb as a rock for putting a razor blade near that car. The dealer really has been aces so far otherwise, so we will see. Thanks again.

Replying to: cars4mike (Sep 08, 2006 6:52 pm) Marketing allowance = ???? I'm not sure what you mean by Marketing allowance, sorry. Again, I do agree we got a nice deal, and I will never argue that. I wish I could say our buying experience was as good as yours....there was no effort at all. |
