Lovely

What a great looking car.  Kia really are coming on leaps and bounds.

I do seem to remember Kia saying that they were going to drop the Veloster turbo engine into this, which is going to make this a very desirable car.

hmmm

The previous model reminded me of the previous GTC and I thought it was just a coincidence. The new model is a lot more similar to the new GTC. It seems Kia is thinking Astra when designing their car. Now lets see if it has worthwhile driving dynamics.

I'm disappointed with this.

I'm disappointed with this. The bit of chrome between the headlights and grille looks cheap, and the small glass area at the back makes it look too heavy. Wonder if they got the idea for the stuck on black plastic panel on the back bumper from the Punto Evo?
