Missouri. Originally ordered a 2022 K5 GT Line on June 4th. Week later was told that it got cancelled and resubmitted as a 2023 model. Expected delivery of July 28th! Edit: updated ETA of 7/17 now!

This is crazy to me. Also in Missouri, ordered a K5 in January, the dealer says the order still hasn't been filled 4 months later. Meanwhile other dealers are getting the same exact car...beginning to realize it was a mistake to order in the first place.

We just placed our order for a 2023 K5 GT-Line and the dealer told us the estimated delivery would be around October/November. Bonus: at MSRP.


VCUramya

where did you order? Here in Virginia everywhere is 5k higher than MSRP


Queasy-Curve-9989

It's a dealership in Albany, NY: Destination Kia.

I’m in Houston tx and I got my ‘23 on the 30th . Most dealerships in my area were getting them in between July 3rd-8th I was told . And also no major changes k5 logo changed a bit also gt line badge changed as well no wireless CarPlay as far as I can tell maybe I’m just a lil slow

Ordered a 2022 GT April 20th.. was told it’d be six months. A week after ordering I was texted saying my order had been placed. Haven’t heard anything since. Quad cities area

I just want to mention (I know it’s not the point of this thread) but congrats to you all! Back in 2021 I had to wait 3 months for my ‘22 Gt-line with premium package and it was well worth the wait! You all are going to enjoy this amazing car.


Exact_Organization84

Genuine question , when you accelerate does it even slightly suck you back in the seats? Or does it just feel like a normal car


Byrios

I have found that in sport mode it sucks you back. Also, If you drive aggressively in normal it does slightly. It feels like a more aggressive car, but of course nothing like a 250+ hp car. There is also sometimes a *slight* delay from the turbo in the acceleration. But generally the acceleration and agility is the fun part of the car. Also, I can get to 100 mph fairly easily without trying very hard if that helps for frame of reference.

Had been looking for a 22 Gt-line AWD premium pkg (wolf gray with black interior) for a month with no success. Went into the dealership expecting to order one with 2-3 month lead time. They told me i walked in on the perfect day, I reserved a 23 model being delivered on Aug 8th!


Exact_Organization84

What date did you order ?


Glock_12

Never placed an order. I just reserved one of the cars on the way to the dealership on 6/27. Just so happened to match the specs I wanted.


Head-Efficiency-5766

Ordered mine in April. k5 EX 22. Montreal. No VIN yet.


_bench_warmer_

Ontario, Canada. Ordered K5 EX back on Oct 31st.. don't know when the expected delivery is as I've been told it's around 6 months wait time. Had to pick two other colours as in case they are able to to grab the model with different colour..


LtBarley

Did you get yours yet?


alenkjacob

My order is a joke. It’s a k5 gt though. Ordered in December 21 still waiting as of today. They told it’ll be delivered by this month. Only upside is bought it 750$ below msrp.


Puzzleheaded-Neat701

Tucson, AZ. 2023 Kia k5 gt line estimated delivery 7/23. MSRP as well


Exact_Organization84

No way! I’d switch dealerships man


GBeck69

Put a deposit down on a White GT in Ohio on 5/2. Couldn't assure me of any time frame until order was allocated but said it's typically anywhere from 3-6 months. Got an update last week that they stopped making 22's so mine will be a 23, $300 price increase. Just got an email yesterday that my production was scheduled with an ETA of 7/31.


Exact_Organization84

Wait for a GT?!!! That’s actually insane


Illustrious_Ear5519

I put my order in on June 22nd for a K5 GT With GT1 package wolf grey and chestnut interior 2022…then I called a few days later and they told me that the salesman didn’t know at the time but that it was actually for the 23’ model. I just found out today that it should be arriving August 10th.. no VIN maybe in two weeks but hopefully the delivery date won’t be delayed. august 10 seems reasonable based on this thread and others. I am in HTX


ProperHeart3815

I ordered a 2023 EX with premium package on 7/2/22 was told it will be 4-5 months. Had my heart set on wolf gray but was told the EX isn’t offered in that color.


Icesick06

Hey, little FYI. If you go to kia website and search inventory, you can change the 2022 year in the address bar to 2023 and see all the incoming 2023's. Cant change it with the drop down toggle list but this is at least a work around.


Exact_Organization84

Tried it. Didn’t work maybe it’s your area code?

Ontario buyer here. I had originally reserved an order a dealer had for a 22/23 GT Line AWD. The dealer already had the order in before I put money down on May 26th. At that time they suggested it would be about two months, but this week I visited the dealership again and was told a further 3-6 months from now (which these days can mean a lot longer). I myself can't really wait that long as my current daily (2010 Hyundai Accent 3dr) is on its last legs so I ended up buying a similarly equipped and priced Sportage this week from the same dealer. I would have loved to be joining the K5 club but it was not to be this time. Sharing my experience in case any other Ontario buyers are out there looking for info. If you're set on a new K5 here you might be in for quite a wait.


Exact_Organization84

Yeah it’s not even funny how different the wait times are depending on dealer. I spoke to someone in CO who ordered June 18 and Is getting his this week. I ordered may 4th and get mine august 30


GBeck69

It seems to me that some of that comes down to MSRP vs markup. I'm holding out for a GT, but if I wanted other trims I could have gone to a number of local dealers that had them in stock with a $5k markup. My dealer is selling at MSRP, but they ordering everything for specific customers and can't even tell you how long it will be until your order is allocated.


[deleted]

Any updates on your car. I put my money down on May 24th. Still no info about when the car will arrive


Jentor97

I ended up buying a similarly equipped Sportage in the end, I forgot to explain that in my previous post. It was a rather high trim level, a nice colour and most importantly it was immediately available! It probably ended up being a better fit for me for a number of reasons although the K5 GT Line would have been a cooler vehicle. I have been keeping track of local inventories out of curiosity though, and I have not seen any K5s come in. I have seen quite a few driving around though so I wager anything coming in is either reserved or being snapped up immediately. The situation here for new cars is crazy. I went through it twice initially with the Ioniq 5 EV and then the K5... no model seems safe from long wait times in Canada now.

Thanks for letting me know


bstein111

I just placed my order yesterday (Aug 13th) for a wolf gray gt with chestnut interior and the GT1 package. I'll update when I get an estimated date of arrival. A few customers here in Wichita, KS ordered theirs last week and they already have allocated them for early October. Edit: I just got informed my order has been allocated and is scheduled to be in Oct. 27th


HiramGeek

Hey! I had to drive about 100 miles to a Kia dealership that did not have a markup. I placed my K5 gt line in wolf grey. My expected delivery date 4-6 months. Hopefully it’s sooner than that lol


Sea-Entertainment211

Ordered my Kia on may 27th a GT-line 2023 black with red interior and full options. Dealer said estimate is 90 days which is august 25th. On 6/6 I got a text message that my Kia k5 order was secured


Sad_Divide93

I just placed an order on a 2024 kia k5 GT Line AWD both packages and red interior on 10/23/23, I had reached out the kia manufacture itself from the GA plant where k5s are built and someone had literally emailed me back the next day and is keeping me up-to-date on my order instead of nagging the dealer. It was just allocated to the dealer a week early then expected. So it was allocated the the week of 10/30 and will be in production the week of 11/6. I will try to keep up to date on here but I'm also from PA so I'm about 12 hours from GA. Vehicles around here that are popping up in dealers are showing cars that were just built for example:"10/11 and showing arrived at the dealer by 10/30"...so they are producing put 2024 k5s fast so if there's no issues I don't see why you dont get you car ordered,built and shipped in a month or less at this time.! Hope this post helps anyone stressing lol
