Anyone done a lease buyout in South Carolina?

[Bjjpurple]

I just got my online acct. when I click to get the buyout price it tells me to call my dealer. I called Kia customer service and they said South Carolina is a “dealer only” state and to call the dealer. I call the dealer and their finance guy has no clue about any of this, says he doen’t Have access to that info. He is going to make some calls and call me back.

I'm in the same boat - thought it would be easy and just get a number from KMF but nooooo not that easy with Kia. For the record, my buyout was readily accessible with Audi Finance on my last car... also purchased and owned in SC. I haven't even asked my dealer yet because I don't have 4 hours to sit in the dealership trying to get a good number.

Dealer just called me, gave me the number. I guess it’s right. I’ll look it over when I get home. They had to call and get it.
