Finally pulled the trigger on 2027 telluride SX here is what I paid
I've been looking to purchase this car in South Florida ever since it came out, so I spent a lot of time researching pricing.
I bought the 2027 Telluride SX. White pearl color with Deep Navy/Tuscan Umber interior.
When I first started shopping, the best out-the-door (OTD) price I could find was $54,700 (including all taxes and fees). This month I received my two lowest quotes: $53,500 OTD and $53,070 OTD, which is the deal I ultimately went with.
On top of that, I negotiated for full window tint and a full tank of gas before taking delivery. It may not sound like much, but every little bit counts. I pushed hard for the all-weather floor mats, but they wouldn't budge. They did, however, offer to sell them to me at their cost.
I also wanted to share my experience because I've been lurking in this group for months. Reading everyone else's posts helped me a ton, so hopefully this helps someone else who's currently shopping.
I was also trading in my 2023 BMW X1. The highest trade-in offer I received elsewhere was $24,400, but the dealership I bought from gave me just over $26,000, which made a big difference.
Overall, I feel like I did really well on this deal.
My biggest recommendation is to negotiate everything over the phone or by email before ever stepping into the dealership. It gives you time to collect multiple quotes, compare offers, and negotiate without feeling pressured. By the time I arrived, everything had already been agreed upon, so the buying process was quick, easy, and well worth my time.
How do you guys think I did?
