As a former Kia employee, I gotta say this car is pretty amazing considering the price point. We had to train for 2 days on it's features,just to get certified so that we could sell this car. Really nice blend of power and luxury. Great review as always.
eaglezfan90 Thanks a lot!
Any yet many of the V8 K900s engines are blowing up, sadly
Why is everyone hating on this car, I'm 18 and I'd rather have this then a camaro or mustang or wrx. Watching this video made me want to go lease one that v8 is one of a Kind.
Jonathan Washington well see, unlike most people, you actually have a great taste for cars.
Kia used to suck, but now they've really really stepped up their game. If this isnt a premium automobile its full on Luxury! I mean 60k gets you so much from Kia or Hyundai.
Are they as reliable as the japanese? Not quite but damn close. Are they more reliable than anything the US builds? Absolutely!
I thought I'm the only one here that likes it. So many people complaining and comparing
i died at "one of a kind" hahahahaha
D13H4RD2L1V3 Very true, some people wouldn't be caught dead in a Kia no matter how nice it looks because at the end of the day its still a Kia. Which is sad but alot of people hold on to the past.
I think if they launched a luxury brand like Lexus for Toyota, it might be more appealing.
My grandparents have this car, they bought theirs about a month ago. They are coming from a 2008 Kia Amita. This is a very slick car. I drove it home from the dealership. I was running 95mph and only felt like I was going 65mph. I love this car.
Hyundai/Kia really needs to make a luxury car division.
thebluexanadu78 That would definitely make sense in the long run.
***** Yup. I see them releasing the new Genesis and Cadenza and now this one which all look extraordinary. I think Hyundai and Kia has been successful enough to release a luxury car brand now to compete with the Germans.
thebluexanadu78 I would think they would in the coming years after they see the sales potential of these models.
***** Let's hope so! I really want to see what Hyundai has up their sleeves!
***** Would be a good idea since Kia and Hyundai are not known for high end vehicles.
I don't know what happened at KIA but ever since last year, their line up has just blown me away. Never considered owning a KIA before and now I wish I had the Soul or Forte.
***** My wife and I just bought a 2015 Soul Exclaim with the Umber package for her new daily driver while we keep the miles off her Thunderbird. Wonderful vehicles!
Great video Kyle! Those gauges are so cool and you did a great job giving your driving impressions in addition to your usually good walkthrough of the features. You're really lucky to be getting press cars, hopefully the awesome job you did on this one will encourage Kia and other companies to give you more press cars in the future!
Yeah Subaruwrxfan
I must say It's kind of refreshing seeing Kyle's face in his reviews.. different approach.
About 7 years ago I first learned about Kia because of the rio, back then I never in a million years would I have expected a company like this to make such beautiful cars!
I would take this over ANY Lexus, Acura, or Infiniti. This car is not boring like the others.
Your grossly ignorant comment shows how much of an idiot you are and why your comment isn't worth any merit.
Bentley Mulsanne why would you want a copied car? the rear of it looks like the rear of a 2013 lexus es300, has the same gear selector as a new bmw and prices start at $60,000 no thanks id rather go with lexus, audi, mercedes etc
tahrn tej you forgot to say buttons on doors are from Mercedes to. I had kia sorento 12mpg for only 194hp. NO thanks. Btw kia is Hyundai .
MakeSh00t what the flying fuck? 12 mpg from a ~200 hp engine? are you sure you didn't mistype that?
jeffrey625625 LLOOLL. I HAD HIM 7 MONTHS AND I SOLD IT. NO MISTYPE IT WAS HEAVY, 4475lb
The more I watch this video, the more I like this car. I think it's the best-looking large, premium sedan out there as well. For $66k, with the VIP Package, I'd definitely buy one in a second. I wish I could get one right now. Brand snobbery means nothing to me, and I think many more people would love this car if they honestly compared all it offers vis a vie Mercedes, Audi and BMW, at a much lower price. I'll bet it rides more comfortably than all of them also. The K900 definitely has more room in the front than the Mercedes S-Class, Audi A8, and BMW 7-Series. Lovely car at a bargain price.
Even though it is a KIA, I bet it is 10 times more reliable that the German luxury cars. Hyundai and KIA are becoming more reliable every year. Just Check Consumer Reports and JD powers. Having a fancy car means nothing if it is always in the shop!
agree!
agree!
BMW and Benz are good but overrated.
But Kia‘s and Hyundai‘s have the worst very bad recalls ever, and I don’t know about the Genesis have the same bad recalls though as Kia’s and Hyundai because it was made from Hyundai as a luxury brand.
@@deanmorara3491 Almost every manufacturer has recalls. I must admit Hyundai and Kia has been having some issues lately but you get a great warranty with them. When it comes to reliability I am buying a Toyota, Lexus Acura or Honda. Even Mazda has improved every year as well.
After driving a KIA Optima for the last 5 years with absolute 0 issue found, I have no doubt that the KIA K900 is a great indulgent car to get into especially when you are looking for a smart buy. KIAs are honest good cars.
From the crappiest boxes to an amazing cars, and SUV's. I know. I sold them. The K900, and the new Sorento, and the new Sedona are exceptional. The Germans, and Japanese better keep their house in order because Kia is here to stay.
I work for a Kia dealership and I must admit Kia had came a very long way, I was thoroughly impressed when I started working here
This car has more luxurious features than a top end Benz!
No one beats your videos, Kyle. The amount of detail and professionalism is always fantastic!
Buy a kia and you will never buy another auto brand again KIA IS THE BEST...
Agreed
Funny.
Kia and Hyundai are much better than the *plastic* Mitsubishi.
Windows 7Pro2009 yes their cars are more stupid than the 1990’s
Yes!!!
I have to salute the Kia decision makers for going after the looks of top cars and implementing something close for eye candy and getting great sales and on top of that they do make great driving cars. Front Looks like a Jaguar, back looks like a Lexus. Gear and Dial section in the center looks like a mixture between BMW and Benz. Smart people.
For this price this car is really good
I am fortunate to have this car and I would never trade it in for another vehicle! I'm constantly getting compliments on my car!
This car is simply amazing!
You are the best car reviewer ever. Really impressive, natural and genuine. I truly enjoyed every minute of your review.
everyone talking about BMW and Mercedes but KIA won the JD Powers award over all the other brands this year
Just the detail that went into that interior is insane for a kia never thought I'd see the day where a kia looks better than a Benz or beamer haha still take the q56 Eau Rouge any day tho
nice car its crazy how good kia is now they've improved so much
Kia has come correct in every aspect of this Luxury flagship car. I love the white leather option in a luxury car ! I would love to see a rack and pinion steering option on this car ! I personally don't like the drive by wire option only.....
Kyle you do the best reviews hands down.
***** Thanks so much!
Kyle, I love how you go from reviewing Ferraris to reviewing a luxury KIA. way to focus on every segment. Keep it up
I think this guy should be the new host of MotorWeek once the current host John Davis retires. Great Job!
I'm impressed with Kia..they put a lot of effort in this car.
This car is so beautiful
Your car reviews are by far the best. Very detailed indeed being an almost 40 min review you cover pretty much any detail one needs to know but watching it the time flies. This car is absolutely gorgeous anybody talking smack about it is living in the stone age. Kia and Hyundai products have come a long ways. Definitely gonna check one out once im in the market for a new car!
Go KIA!
I like it a lot. I've been a fan of many newer KIAs lately, from roughly 2011 to present, especially the Optima. Buick has also undergone a similar brand image transformation in the past 5 years or so. I do think KIA needs to strongly consider changing their logo now tho from a marketing standpoint. Where some older brands like Oldsmobile may have changed their logos too often when there was no need to, people obviously still associate the current KIA logo with the brand from the 90's and early 00's. And it's a completely different company now. They deserve the respect they've longed for for creating a product like this for thousands less than the main competition to the K900. Selling a KIA for $60-70k is still gonna be a tough one... But then again, $60-70 grand is a lot for ANY CAR, not just a KIA. People are just "brand blind". Nevertheless, great review of an equally great car.
This car is amazing. If I were in the market for a new luxury car, I'd only consider the LS or Genesis as a competitor. I'm very interested to see how maintenance costs play out over time. If the Kia and Hyundai are actually reasonable to maintain, they will have a good advantage over their German rivals. Below I read a comment that if you buy a luxury car you should expect to pay for maintenance. I feel differently. If a car is truly well built and engineered, it will perform exceptionally while remaining durable and economical to maintain, regardless of which market segment it is intended to be sold in.
Love this car so much! Kia is becoming a very unique brand and has great looking cars. I wish when I talk to people about Kia or Hyundai they wouldnt assume its still a crappy car company. Kia has come a long way!
Kyle,
I have you thought about buying one a K900? I know from what you said you really liked this car a lot. Thanks for the video!
lidsman2221 I would consider this if I had the money, but we're not at that point yet haha. I cannot fathom spending 60k on anything! :P
***** 60k for this nip piece of shit?
***** IMO the only reason to consider this car is for the 10 year/ 100,000 mile warranty. Only to consider if you drive lets say 8-9k miles a year.
***** rather geta Cadillac or lexus
*****
u can get the cla amg for 50,000, with upgrades and taxes (also if you live in canada), and with the spare you can get winter tires, but each and their own, the only reason i would get the kia is because no one else drives it on the road, so you feel exclusive in a way
I love the genesis and the k900 so much
they're special and properly designed with quality interiors
engines are very nice too
even the New cheaper optima and sonatas have amazing quality for the price
This is gorgeous, but that price has really crept up for Kia. I mean, it's still a beautiful car and you get a lot of bang for your buck. This model easily competes with BMW 7 series, Audi's A8 and Lexus and Infiniti flagships.
I love the k900 I drove it its comfortable easy to drive and it looks great awesome power and I normally go for Japanese but kia has stepped up there game good job kia
Doesn't this car remind you of a Mercedes s and e class
FastestCores It doesn't really compete against those two. It's more like a Lexus LS or BMW 7 series. In my opinion, the S class is a whole new level.
+Saabkyle04 What is your opinion about the mercedes s class?
FastestCores I loved the new S class. The technology they offer is phenomenal!
***** what do you mean?
It makes me think of a Ford Tarus mixed with a Jaguar
Seen one of these yesterday; looks excellent in person!
the strange this is... when you ride a Kia K900 or Hyundai Genesis... you will get a lot, I mean, A LOT of attention from Lexus, Jaguar, Mercedes and BMW owners.. heck even Rolls Royce and Aston Martin owners pay attention to Kias and Hyundais..
Because they cannot fathom how their cars are worth 3-4 times more than something that looks just as elegant [if you don't know the brand, the cars look of equal prestige]. Many of them sob at how they've been duped by the pursuit of brand-image conscientiousness, which does nothing to please the owner but drain him of money that he worked so hard for, that no one wants to give for free, just to buy a car to impress people that don't really care about him
your really doing from what i call a "REAL CAR REVIEW" testing everything and telling every detail about the car and most of all i love how the first you did a acceleration test :D KEEP IT UP :D
Lebron james drives this car, and you all still bitching about it, Hyndaui and KIA are going on the right steps, Mark my words, after 10 years you will see how much quality they become
Jamie Kimz Lebron is ENDORSED with Kia lol
+Alvonte Rogers Ummmm, I doubt you know Lebron James and/or have seen any of the cars he actually drives. Don't flatter yourself Alvonte.
+Jamie Kimz Yeah, so they pay Lebron a million dollars to hawk their car and sell a whopping 2500 this year. Meaning every one of those people paid $400 to a multi-millionaire. Suckers all of them...
All you have to do is google and find out the sales volume.
2015 : 2,524
2016 : 834
2017 YTD : 286
The car isn't selling as people aren't buying even though you can grab a steal deal on the car... Maybe it will be just like "Amanti"
You got that right look at mine
Another fine job, Kyle. I never considered a Kia before, but this is a very nice car. I'm glad they went for maximum comfort and ride quality. Too many large sedans try to pretend they're sports cars and end-up being uncomfortable to drive long distances. The K900 is rather like the old Lincoln Town Cars used to be, and that's a good thing as far as comfort goes. Thanks for sharing this with us.
I wonder what kind of VIP would buy this
One who is tired of having the same car as all his executive buddies.
Figva RS lebron james lmao
My sis test drove one of these at the 2015 CAS. It's a phenomenal car. Awesome.
Okay Kia if you want to go upmarket change that god awful badge. Its unimaginative and just bleh...
VolkswagenGamer Kind of like Hyundai did with the new Genesis. A pretty design overall. I'll have a video on it coming soon.
***** I agree.
***** I think they did that with the Equus too, if I'm not mistaken...haven't seen one in a long time.
*****, please review 2014 Hyundai Equus. Thanx!
The 2014 Hyundai Equus, is the same as with Kia K900's 8-Speed Shift-by-Wire Automatic Transmission with Manual Shift Ability.
Awful model name too
im really impressed with this car, i dont care if its a Kia, its fantastic!
66k and KIA shouldn't be in the same sentence..
I was thinking the same thing
Yet 66k is ok for Dodge, Chevy, Toyota and Ford.
Why do people still think so lowly of Kia..
Why not? If other car manufacturers can make luxury cars why can't KIA? Are they any different other than they made no so great cars back in the day? They are trying to change and this car is a great example of that.
I see what you're saying, as of present times I just don't see a Kia with the brands like Mercedes, Lexus, Bmw, etc. don't get me wrong it's a sharp looking car and is probably a real well built one but I would never drop 65k on a Kia. 10 years from now I be eatting my words but as of now they're not for me.
Sam Mehta A Kia has nowhere near the same brand cache as a BMW, Lexus, or Mercedes.
You have some of the most detailed reviews about cars in general.
Worth the time watching your videos. Keep making more please!
I'm in love with this car! determined for this to be my next, sorry Volkswagen I'm converting lol.
You're leaving a good company for a bad company... How exciting
+legoscienceboy10p IG bad volkswagen in turmoil for all they're snotty electrical problems which both my volskwagen I've had , have had
***** not it's not because it's korean
my relative has a kia and it's pretty off
+Javonte Hill I'm in the same boat! Giving up my '04 VW Touareg for a '16 Kia Optima. VW is a terrible company, and the Emissions scandal is just a drop in the bucket. There's an electrical issue wrong with my car that causes it to bolt forward after you have to apply the breaks quickly; its like the gears get jammed. People could seriously get hurt, and VW knows its a problem but refuses to recall / repair the problem. I will never buy another VW, new or used.
Micheal O'Key What do you expect?it's a 2004 volswagen!
Great review and the K900 is an impressive car at that price-point. However, for 66K, I would choose an Audi A6 or BMW 535i. I don't need a full-size car and I enjoy a sportier ride, greater engine/transmission refinement with enough interior comfort.
Although I like the K900, it's still a KIA at the end of the day.
Yes, it's a good car, but what would you rather turn up in? A Kia K900, or a Mercedes-Benz S550?
I wouldn't be surprised if people went for the K900, but I would prefer the S550 simply because KIA still has an image problem. I think a luxury division would work. Infiniti worked for Nissan, Lexus worked tremendously well for Toyota and Acura did well for Honda.
I would still get a K900 if I had the money, though. Looks like tremendous value for money, though I'll give it some time for it to mature because, like I said, KIA still has an image problem. Maybe this might turn that around.
I actually really want to have a go in this.
If anything, this is a Lexus LS or Mercedes S Class for peanuts.
People need to stop worrying about image provided by a stupid car, and worry more about their bodies. I see the fattest slobs in expensive sport cars. It just looks like you're putting lipstick on a pig. I'd rather date a beautiful girl driving a bottom of the line Kia vs an ugly girl in a s550 Benz. I'd get the s550, but not to impress a woman. Will all these dummies you're trying to impress sick around when the s550 gets repoed and you lose the house.
No they don't they have grown alot so that's enough respect.
drjd2real ha ha ha lol love the comment that's good
D13H4RD2L1V3 you won't get a s550 for this price honey. Are you living in a cave?
For this step up of Kia, I must say it does looks amazing.
Y'all stop comparing it to the German automotive industry. KIA is doing their own thing and this is a very beyond decent car for their first true luxury car and yet talk down on it over one of the most 2 overrated brands in the world. This is KIA's first luxury line to come a little close to the 7 series, S class, & LS it may not out do them at first but just give it a chance at least and it'll get better over the generations it'll hope to see, at least it'll be cheaper to maintain cause of the manufacture name it bares & a 3.8 V8 engine putting out 400+HP with a nice note?? I'd say they're not doing too bad for themselves it could a been worse.
5.0 V8
3.8 V6
It’s did have German design because they had German designer to design the K900. Those designer are so awesome with this
Kyle I love your videos! They're the most in depth and comprehensible car videos on RUclips and they always cover every aspect of the vehicle. I always know what to expect when watching one of your videos. Thank you for the amazing quality!
If I drop 66k to get this car, you best believe I'm also dropping that hideous badge lmao
forget your car and driver, your videos are absolutely amazing and more informative then i could have ever imagined. thanks to you i bought my first car, an 08 nissan sentra se-r spec-v. best purchase i have ever made. keep it up man, brilliant.
mistrydriver2 Thank you so much for watching! I appreciate your feedback, lots more cool things to come :)
Anyone else really hate that steering wheel?
Looks like an impala steering wheel
Looks like sumthing from the 90's
After college, and once I have my career set, I might look into Kia's. Beautiful car.
Why can't people let go of the past. It isn't 2004 anymore, it's 2014. Kia is no longer a crap company.
I still wouldn't pay 70k for a Kia.
TimDJ84 Because it's a Kia. But if it were a Lexus you wouldn't hesitate would you? You're what a like to call a dumbass consumer.
But it's still a Kia. And their recent "overhaul" is all because of 1-2 people who recently joined the team. Funny thing is though, they're not even Korean.
I so agree Kia has come a long way. They are much better.
Ghazi Al-Baghdadi They do make good looking cars. The guy who designs them used to design cars for Audi I mean just look at the A6.
that song was absolutely perfect for the crescendo in the middle of the video! WHOA.
The emblem looks like fancy mailbox letters....lol
Nice car regardless of the manufacturer. I'm more impressed that it's a Kia. Great review. Your reviews keep getting more polished and professional looking Kyle. Congrats on your growing popularity and influence. I'm glad auto manufacturers are taking notice of you and your work.
Introducing the all-new 2015 Kia Amanti!
KIa discontinued the Amanti. The Amanti was Kia's flagship sedan before the K900 was introduced.
Clearly!
Matthew's Car Corner The Kia Amanti was a joke and so was my initial comment.
Production and editing is really professional, great review... Well done Kyle!
Quietest v8 I've ever heard
now this was MUCH MUCH MUCH better than the boring reviews you've been doing for a while.
Hey Kyle, great review. Do you think Kia is a good choice for the luxury car market?
Swantomdisire I do, there's nothing in this class that compares when looking at price and what you get in terms of features.
his videos just get better and better WOW
I wonder how much Kia paid him to make a positive review of the car.
they don't have to, it´s just a nice car. Here in germany some car reviewers write reviews like they are paid from the german car manufacturers, so the german cars are better than all other EVERY fuc*ing time... it´s unbelievable. German car magazine: Volkswagen > Ford - Amarican magazine: Ford > Volkswagen. Simple as that.
Its a nice car he dosent need to be payed
Wow what an amazing video! You should make every video just like this! Love the style. You go Saabkyle!
Did y'all know that the original car was called the Kia K9? Change the name? How about you add 2 zeros? Kia K900!
Kyle should do that part where he asks a question and gives some history of the brand in every video.
lol its funny. All you defending Kia have to explain to the entire world why it's a nice car. With Lexus, Bmw, Merc. you just say the name and people know your status.
jelly1928 Everyone thought Toyota was crazy for Lexus. After all, they made econobox cars for YEARS. Kia will be fine.
See, this is what you don't understand. You cant just get up one morning and impulsively decide to make a change a car company to make it a luxury company. It needs to have heritage and history. This is where Hyundai fails. Lexus/Infiniti/Acura were born luxurious, not just an impulse.
+Hamann I'm just wondering what is 'luxury'? I ask because you can get heated seats in a Kia compact.
Luxury isn't necessarily features or upgrades in a car. Its the heritage. Its the fact that with cars such as BMW, Lexus, Benz etc, you get a sort of respect when you tell people you drive one of those cars. You may be thinking, who cares what people think. If youre one of those people who dont care, then you dont care, but a very high majority of people buy these cars, not just for the luxury aspects but also the name and the prestige of saying that you own of those cars. Its more of a pride thing.
+Hamann I suppose you're right. There are people who buy them because of the name and then pay a high price to maintain them; I just hope I don't have to bail them out with my tax dollars because of their poor decisions. Anyway, I'm glad that Kia made this car so maybe these brands can make their cars mean SUBSTANCE more than 'heritage'.
I love it! If I can ever afford to buy a new car, I think I'll definitely get one.
Looks like somebody tried to describe a quattroporte to Kia over the phone...
The name isn't the most elegant thing either. K900, K9? Are they suggesting its a dog?
IIXRATEDIIHiTMAN No, Kia's Korean nomenclature is:
K3= Forte
K5= Optima
K7= Cadenza
K9= K900
They should have went with Quoris which is what their original plan was.
IIXRATEDIIHiTMAN Now that you mention it, it does looks similar.
Hahaha
Lmfao literally
Kyle this is the best review yet, keep using this style, also I like that u are using a proper mic now, Ive been commenting on your other videos to please use a proper mic cause sometimes your voice sounds muffled. I really like it when you test the audio system, I can hear its quality. damn the k900 has some great audio packed in. cheers kyle!
i would buy the kia k900 instead of a bmw 520d
Wow, these lower class car companies are really stepping their game up, good job kia show the world what you all are made of.
This reminds me of a BMW mixed with a Kia to make an ultimate luxury sedan!!
Are you ok?
TheAllMirageChannel LMFAO
Kia really step their game up a lot, with this K900
looks like a cross between a Ford fusion, BMW 7 series and a Lexus LS all in one...
just an observation.. not bashing KIA. It's a quality car for its price range
Trust me, it is great for first few weeks then you start to find odd things. buttons are not in right places so you have to figure out all different things.. Auto stop button and drive mode button are right next to each other but drive mode button, you can put your finger then boom you could select the drive mode. However, you have to push and hold the auto stop button for a good second to activate that. I thought I did at the stop light, reaching something in the back seat and hit the car in front of me... It was not activated... I learned my lesson so when I use auto stop button, I hold it for 10 seconds, look at the dashboard to confirm then let the brake pedal go.... K900 is a knock off luxury car.
Hey Kyle I really liked that you included night shots of the interior! I hope more of your reviews had this! :D
The steering wheel looks like that of a 1999 Ford Windstar, lol.
I'm a huge fan of your reviews! They're unique and extremely detailed. Please do the hyundai genesis 2015 next! I want to buy one but would love to see your walk around first
Front looks like an Bmw 6series and the Back looks like an Bmw 7series and the Interior like the New S class
Lovely car. I'd definitely say they've come a long way! Especially with this.
Why are KIA and Ford vehicles looking more and more similar these days?
They always have. I noticed it with the old Kia Sedona. They looked similar to the Ford Windstar at a glance.
Ford Fusion look like Aston Martin lets sink that In
Yeah I've really liked what Peter Schreyer and Tom Kearns along with Hyundai support has done for Kia. So much so that last year I bought a 2015 Kia Forte5 SX Turbo. I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better sporty mid size car in the $25 range.
You should do a review of the newest generation Forte5 SX and Koup SX.
that steering will is just hideous
Ghazi Al-Baghdadi shit im stupid lmao, wheel. Im from the fucking boonies.
Levvy they should make more wood trimming and a 3 Spoke.
Best video to date, ***** The new angles, transitions and background was awesome.
Lexus LS is like ten times better than this crap
I'll tell you what, I'll give you the choice of a fully loaded K900 (about $66K in car) and 300 individual $20 dollar bills (out of your own bank account) in the passenger seat, or the absolute bare minimum LS460 (about $72K in car) and pocket that $6,000 right in front of you. What's your choice?
Young Knives Lexus all day. I'll pay more for a quality luxury car from a reputable automaker vs some Korean junk.
Zoe Thompson Have you even own a a recent Kia or Hyundai?
Sounds good to me, hey I have a horse I'd love to sell you, got three legs but it's name Bentley!
Young Knives I'll take a crappy Bentley over a premium Kia any day.
First thing that came to mind when I saw the front grill was "Is that a Jaguar??" lol
v8 is too much... a v6 is enough...
MrPrankUser A V6 will be available later this year.
***** Great! seeing ur videos makes me upset, i live in brazil and our cars are incredibly pieces of shit (only the most expensives ones are good, 80, 150k) in america i see the difference.
***** PS: and even cars are ridiculously expensive...
Brasil, a country for rich people.
MrPrankUser Wow, I didn't realize that! Very interesting to see how markets differ in different countries :)
Ya, but if you have the money, and you have the engine developed all ready. Why not? LOL
I wouldn't mind having one of these, good to be different from the mainstream. Plus it looks good!
Plus this is one of those cars I wouldn't buy new, I'd wait a year or two especially since it's the first year
hey, japan cars are not good. because design is ugly and safty is bad. but Hyundai and Kia design is perfect and very safe
Why is the Toyota Camry the best-selling sedan in America then? Whoop! Whoop! Korean cars are generally copies. The Kia looks like a fucking Bentley that raped a BMW. Did you know that the early Hyundais were actually Mitsubishis? A Japanese company actually gave a head start to your car industry, and you still say Japanese cars are not good? Your English needs a lot of work. You don't say "Japan" cars... It's "Japanese" cars. When you say "safty", do you mean "safety"? English is my 2nd language, and I know it better than you do.
マックス Man So.... Tell me the names who buy Mitsubishi, Mazda, Sony, and Panasonic these days. Just being honest.....Even Chinese companies make better products than Japanese now.

Chinese products are not always are better. You know that they put asbestos in their cars, right? They are #1 in making knock-offs too. Japanese camera brands dominate nearly 90% of the whole market. FujiFilm, Canon, Lumix, ETC. All of those companies you have mentioned are still very popular. Many friends I had that worked in retail can verify that. You just don't want those companies to be popular. Your argument is flawed. Get out.
HaHa. Very Funny.. Have you heard about SmartPhone? The ones made by Apple, Samsung, HTC.. People take pictures now with those things.. Oh.. Sorry Japanese company can not make any of those.. Looks like you still live in 90s. Come on, Bro.. It was 20 years ago. Too sad.

meanwhile japan has 22 nobel peace prize winners. korea only has ONE...
very nice car. I have had a few problems with it. I purchased this exact car, in white, with 26k miles, within 2k miles the ac compressor went out. the white leather on the driver seat, arm rest just started coming off. the dash looked as if it melted, finally the transmission had issues. I had it for almost 2 months. luckily they did take it back and put me in a 2016 vip. v6 😠. big difference. it is definitely a better car. only thing, I m at 650 miles and the battery had to be replaced, the soft close doesn't work on the driver side, and the mirrors don't fold down in reverse anymore. I just hope I don't continue to have problems. if you get one lease it
