Sounds like some killer deals!   Steve, Host
#35 of 472 2003 Sedona EX w/Leather, ABS and Sunroof by elthunter Sep 16, 2003 (8:53 am)
I got my new 2003 Sedona EX with ABS, leather and sunroof Saturday from Harry Lane Chrysler-Kia in Knoxville, TN. I paid $20,700 after rebate, plus tax, title and registration, plus I gave them my 1993 Dodge Grand Caravan with 152,000 miles on it. I paid more over invoice than I thought I should, but he just wouldn't come down any more on a Sedona with all the options.   Since I could have paid $200 more for a 2002 Sienna with 28K miles on it, I still feel I got a good deal.   Some of the sales guys told me, after I bought it, that the Sedona's were killing their sales on Chrysler Voygers. For the price of a Sedona, you can get a Voyger with 6 cylindar engine and A/C and that's about it.   I also think supply is getting tight here. This dealer was the only one within 150 miles who had an EX with all the options I wanted. He also owns the only other local Kia dealership, so the market here is sort of captive.   All in all, I feel like I did OK, and I was impressed with the way the dealer conducted everything after the price was agreed to.   I found a small scratch on the roof that looks like it happened when the rack was put on. They are fixing it with in a week, with no complaints.

i saw a lot of Kia vans at Cooper Kia in Utica NY   along a state highway.   Utica is in the toilet economy wise.
#37 of 472 Just bought 2004 Sedona EX, fully loaded by sedonathree Sep 28, 2003 (9:54 pm)
we bought the '04 EX, with every available option(leather, sunroof, ABS, tow hitch,spoiler etc) for 23,500 minus $1,000 ('04) rebate. so $22,500 plus TTL. we did 36months financing at 4.14%, which is competitive with all the other loans we shopped on LendingTree. Northern Cal, bay area.   not many differences in the 2004's, the MPG is slightly better(did they change something or just do more testing to arrive at a better number?), grey carpet is lighter as is the cladding. also, front grille is different. lastly, there is only half as much rebate available, $1,000.
#38 of 472 New Owner of a 2003 EX by pwier Oct 21, 2003 (8:27 am)
Well I did it, with the addition of my now 7 month old son and our two door cars, it was time to make a change. So last night, my wife and I walked in to the Sun Auto group KIA show room (Wantagh, NY)and walked out with a 2003 sage green EX with leather, sunroof, ABS and the rear spoiler (21K even)before tax. Considering other makes and models, the price was a leading factor, plus my wife loved it. We will pick it up within the week, and hopefully I wont have any regrets. Being a GM supporter, I have grown tired of waiting for GM to rid their cheap plastic interiors and to build a 5 star rated van. It will be much easier getting our little one in and out w/o hitting his head or our own on the roof of the car. I will report back after we drive a little. OH, although I did most of leg work myself, Sun auto group was a good experience, I would have liked to have paid $20500.00, but all considered, 21 was fine.
#39 of 472 congrats, pwier by bluedevils Oct 21, 2003 (4:35 pm)
Sounds like an excellent price on a very good van. Was there a trade-in involved, or was the Sedona a straight purchase? $21k before tax sounds really good.
#40 of 472 To bluedevils by pwier Oct 22, 2003 (6:46 am)
21K was the straight price. No trade-in involved. I feel I could do better selling my car on my own. We will most likely pick it up on Tuesday, just waiting on the insurance info and loan closing. This will be my first foreign auto. I'm sure I will own another GM in the future, but hands down 5 star safety, price, warranty and looks, this van can't be touched by the competition. We looked at the toyota sienna $27K for the SE model. Ford Freestar, believe it or not, priced higher then the sienna and the list goes on. 21K sounds fine with me. Thanks for the congrats. How long have you owned your Kia and how has it held up. Current mileage. Thanks.
#41 of 472 our Sedona by bluedevils Oct 23, 2003 (7:22 pm)
bought new 2002 EX in February 2002-> owned it for 20 months. Van has held up very well, with only minor warranty items and inexpensive routine maintenance so far. Ours is approaching 28,000 miles. We have avoided some of the common problems experienced by many other Sedona owners reporting on this board - noisy A/C etc. Ours must have been built on a Wednesday or something.   Very pleased overall with the purchase. No regrets, except maybe that we didn't wait a while. Demand was fairly high back in early 2002, and we paid $22,930 which was $1,000 under MSRP. Back then, that was better than many folks were doing. I helped my parents buy a loaded 2003 EX earlier this year for $21,350 (plus tax/title/registration)!
