Wanted Ceramic Silver (TX Area)

[SoonerBornATX]

I'm in the market for a Ceramic Silver GT1 or GT2. Ideally I would like a used one around $32k. However I'm not sure how realistic this is. Another appealing option is to purchase a new '19 or '20 with incentives for around $37k. (43k + 6k in incentives). The value of the warranty is undeniable!

Interior is not deal breaker for me but I prefer black.

Currently, I regularly search popular used car sites and Kia dealers in the Texas region in the hope of finding something for me. If you have any tips for finding this car, let me know!

Also, if you've recently purchased a GT1 OR GT2, Could you drop a comment with the details and price you paid? I'm trying a get better idea of how flexible dealers will be.

I'm looking for the same in Texas! I've struggled with dealers understanding what balloon financing is, which I understand is the best way to receive the lease incentive and avoid the double tax on lease buyout. I'd be interested to hear your take on that too.

At present I'm getting to around $35k OTD (including Texas title and taxes) on a used model but as it's not CPO it doesn't have the benefit of the extended warranty.

I purchased a 2019 GT2 with 2K miles in Jan for $36K from a Lincoln dealer in Houston. I recently discovered the 100K 10Yr warranty only applies to first owner however!!!!!! Second hand owner ship nets you 60K 5yr. bummer. I actively searched the whole US for a sub $37K new, and 2K miles was as close as I could get below the $40K mark in January. The car was listed for $39k

Just picked up a CPO 2018 GT2 Ceramic over red in TX for 36.8. Has 25k miles and obviously 75k/8years left under warranty as well as a year of their platinum (bumper to bumper minus consumables) coverage.
