hey man i would kill for a tach

[koolklux]

what a deal, too bad its 1.5 90 horsepower

[Orbie]

lol, the blue ones look ridiculous, I've only seen them for the first time today at the Kia dealership off Macleod, but it was a lot full of red ones. Funniest thing of all is that a few of them had the hood scoop slanted vertically, I guess whatever adhesive they used to put those things on the hood is Kia quality too.

[donz]

haha the scoop is glued on!!!! I never would have known. I wonder how fast 90 hp kia has to push to cause the scoop to come off??

dude 0-60 in 15 seconds, you dont wanna mess with that

a wrx can finish a 1/4 mile faster than it can hit 60mph

why are you so worried that people are gonna compare your car to a rio. they are as different as it gets when it comes to cars.

The car is a regular rio with a few add ons. It costs a thousand dollars more than a regular rio and you get a tach, mp3 player, the hood scoop, fog lights, the spoiler, and the wheels and tires. You also get the factory tires and rims for winter.

Thats not bad for a grand. Two sets of rims/tires!

Hey cyclone, maybe two scoops?

well they are definitley worthy of a good fun making. You would think that if kia wanted to "tuner" up a car, they would at least pick a better car to do it to.

[wildrice]

hahaha, saw one parked at sait today

[rip]

Knockoff of all knockoffs, i think they sell them at zellers too.

[awd]

I think they are hilarious --- oh well, more power to Kia.

[Xtrema]

Save $$ on development cost.

You think this is bad, try Chinese car makers. Everything they make looks like a Toyota.

[crazydave]

KIA!!!. jokes. just playin of course. they have a couple in lethbridge, the first time i saw them i didnt think they would stoop that low to "try" to make a rio look remotely close to a wrx sti. gave me a hella good laugh!

[rockym20]

While those blow, I did see a very cool concept Kia. Did I actually use the words "cool" and "Kia" in the same sentence?? Anyways, it was a very nice looking hatchback with a supercharged 200 hp motor. Appearantly they are going to bring it out in 2007 and will be based on the new Tiburon coming out the same year.

I saw that approaching me on glenmore in my rearview and I thought to myself "wow look at the new mercedes". Then it went by me and I saw it was a KIA and I also received dirty looks from the 17 year old girl driving it, hehe.

[ex1z7]

Ahahahahahahaha I want to cry now

... That's pretty hilarious. I'm surprised it doesn't violate copyright/ip laws.
