Negotiating '19 Premium AWD

[stasek]

Yeah, no I think considering it has terrible MF/residual, for that price, it's really good.

Let's hope for leasing Stinger owners that the actual value is lower than the quoted residual.

Actually, it would be better if the value was higher! If that’s the case, you can always trade the car in or sell it to vroom/carvana/carmax and get some $$$.

I too have been trying to get figures on a 2019 premium in the chicago area. I am located in Indiana, and getting anyone up there to send me a sheet with numbers on it is like pulling teeth. I had a few places quote me 37.5k prior to incentives, but they want me to come in to discuss further. Send me a private message on here and perhaps we can compare notes. I think I am too new of a member to do it myself.

The inventory of ‘19 Premiums is dwindling quickly - not a lot of choices out there. I’ve sent out couple more requests for leftover Base models - we’ll see how that goes. If I can buy one of them for low $20s, I think I can live without some of the cool features of Premium.

Welcome, Chris. Good luck finding the Stinger for you!

Finally got to drive the car . Went to Schaumburg Kia and test drove the Base model w/ Sun & Sound Packages and couple other extras (paint, puddle lights, cargo net - MSRP $40015). Like it! I could definitely see myself driving it for few years.

We stopped negotiations at $34,500 - $9300 rebate. $25,200 seems like a great deal, but here comes the dilemma.... Base or Premium for $1800 more . The extra features of the Premium might just be worth it...... Decisions, decisions....

Did you get them to come down from 37.5k on the premium?

I actually went to a different dealer. The stock on ‘19 base/premiums around Chicago is quite limited, and there are some dealers I would rather not deal with (based on reviews here and on the interwebs).

Yet another person from the Chicago area here. You mentioned looking at 2019s before, but specifically for the "Base model w/ Sun & Sound Packages" I assume that's referring to the 2020 GT Line, correct? If so, I didn't realize the rebate would still be that large and that the price could go so low! If you don't mind sharing, was that without AWD, and one of the paint colors that doesn't cost $500 extra? Regardless that's very exciting to hear if I decide not to go for the GT1, which I'm having some trouble justifying even though I know I would like it more.

Welcome to the forum! I hope that you go with your Gut. That way you'll remain satisfied moving forward.
