subject: Is It Wise To Stay Away From Kia Suvs? [print this page] How come a lot of people kept saying to stay away from Kia products? I mean Kia does offer the best warranties on their vehicles for really good price. Therefore I don't understand why people kept telling me to stay away from Kia if I am thinking of purchasing a new vehicle from them?
At first Kia made a dependable little car, they didn't look cool ar anything, some of those are still running, I'm thinking of getting my wife one. They have become more stylish and better constructed and the warranty, geesh. Because early versions, I heard had a tendency to fall apart and they are not well endowed in the power department.
However today, they offer all kinds of high quality cars with 100,000 miles warranty and have even gone into luxury division like genesis. How did Hyundai-Kia Automotive group end up being so successful after starting from lemon cars? In the late 1980's and early 1990's Hyundai/Kia cars were considered lemons and were very harshly criticized by many.
It also didnt hurt that they "borrowed" designs and technology from Honda & Toyota, for example previous Sonata looked very similar to the Accord and current one looks identical to the Camry. So they adopted the Japanese approach of the 70s-80s which was to build cheap but reliable cars. Basically they realized that building shoddy cars even at rock bottom prices werent conducive to their long term survival.
Are the kia soul hamsters making fun of the scion xb in the commercial? You may have seen this commercial where these hamsters start rapping and saying that the kia soul is better than other cars. It doesn't name any other car by name, but a toaster drives by and the scion has been called a toaster.
They are, as well as the Honda Element, but it's so stupid considering the Scion xB is the obvious best buy car out of the three. Who cares about a car with pulsing stero lights? Which car has been awarded and named the better car more times? The xB, which car has the larger aftermarket and accessory support? The xB.
Hyundai and Kia which one is the best Korean family car? I'm thinking to replace my 1996 Chevrolet Lumina to 2011 Hyundai or Kia. Is anyone can tell me which one is the best family car between Hyundai Sonata GLS (Auto) and Kia Optima LX (Auto)? I'm really appreciate.
Hyundai's are the same exact things as Kia, except Kia is cheaper, and has way more annoying commercials. And 2011 Sonata, I can vouch on the reliability of Hyundai's for my sonata has 130k miles on it and the only problem I've ever faced with the car was a crank sensor, which then again, most other cars do too.
How can I stop my friend from buying a KIA Picanto? He has insisted on getting this car but does not realise who this will affect his image (a girl has rejected him the other day). He has put a 500 deposit down for an 59 plate car and thinks it's cool to be in orange but can only get it in black.
He must discover this for himself. No one can make him realize this. A moron does not realize he is a moron. Only then will he recognize the truth. If you must ride with him, ride only at night with the interior lights off or wear a disguise in the daytime so you won't be recognized.
