I went to or e-mail most dealers in the Phoenix area before I purchase my Sorento.
 
What I purchase was model 72422
 
               2005 Sorento LX 4X4
               Auto Trans
               Antilock Brakes
               Carpeted Floor Mats
               Cargo Tray
               First Aid Kit
               Tinted windows
 
    MSRP was $25135 price from Kia dealer in Avondale after rebate $19250 plus tax and licen and doc fees.
 
I was very happy with the Avondale KIA dealer
 
For my loan I used e-loan, before going to the dealer, It was fast and easy.

I closed a deal over the phone today for pickup MON July 25th. I have three local Kia Dealerships in my area. I worked with one until I felt I had them as low as they "say" they would go ($24,000). I then called the next dealer and they beat them by $1000. I planned on around 22,500, so I am a bit higher but I the third dealer said he could not beat $23,000.
 
Here are the specs:
Brand new, Silver, '05 EX, Luxury Pkg., ABS, Cargo Tray, First Aid Kit, Mudflaps, and they have to tint the front windows to match the back.
Price = $23,000 CASH does NOT include TTL.
I may try to get them to add the spoiler just before I sign the papers, just as an added kicker. p.s. This is in Nebraska. Is this a good deal???

Joe - There was no dealer prep fee on the Sorento but there was a problem. I decided to lease the vehicle and found that the residual value (48 month lease) used to compute the monthly payment was an abysmal 36%. I had also been looking at a Jeep Grand Cherokee and the residual for a similar term was 47% which brought the payment on the Jeep down significantly. My choice became simple. While I liked the Kia and all that you got for your money, it did not make economic sense. Car for car, I have to say the Jeep feels more secure and solid and clearly the auto community believes it will retain its value more than a Kia Sorento will. I ended up leasing the Jeep Grand Cherokee and am very happy with it.

I just purchased a few days ago from Avondale Kia in the Phoenix area after emailing and calling few dealers.
 
Radiant Red/Grey 2005 Sorento EX 4X2
 
Luxury Package
Auto Trans
ABS
Carpeted Floor Mats
Cargo Tray
Rear Spoiler
Tinted windows
Tow hitch
Side Step
Security System
 
With the $2000 rebate and dealer savings I was quoted 21,000 (msrp 27,925) not including TTL and so I went with it. The buying experience was good it was the financing part that they tried to make some more on. They added their detailing service and only presented 4 financing options. I told them I wanted the fifth that didn't include their insurance, service, etc. Overall a good buying experience.
