Color me impressed...my wife was in the market for a new car, and while nothing caught her eye in the sub/compact/wagon category, she did remember the catchy Kia Soul commercials (yes, the ones with the hamsters). Lo and behold, we ended up at the Kia dealership, and they look even better in...

...it'll be at the Chicago Auto Show...

Kia is working on an all-new, larger, more luxurious sedan, and our spy photographers have just sent us the first images of the new car in prototype form. Images of the K9 — believed to be sourced from a Kia meeting — surfaced on the Web late last yea Read more...

Filed under: Sedan, Kia, Design/Style, Luxury, South Korea When the Volkswagen Phaeton launched here in the States, nobody liked it. Well, that's not true. Every journalist we know who drove the mighty VW went on and on about how it's probably actually the greatest car in the world...

http://www.aboutcar.co.kr/1248 Not a sure thing, but now it appears that there is some consideration, esp. since Peter Schreyer has done some prelim sketches. It this comes to pass, methinks that a luxury brand from Hyundai/Kia will no longer be forthcoming.

For those of you who haven't already seen these - here are some live shots of the Kia Cadenza (VG) - I can see the Cadenza stealing a few sales from the Genesis.

Since the V8 Borrego is in such small supply I am taking up home here to learn more about my motor.

Went to Hyundai Tech center in Chino, CA to get the Genesis' emission system check. Apparently this is a government sponsored program for all new cars. Also there was a Hydrogen fuel station there (which I've never seen and a Kia sportage that ran on Hydrogen.) Here's what the letter said...

Motor Trend is reporting that Kia is going ahead w/ the Amanti replacement (long-rumored to be codename CH) that is to be based on the RWD Genesis platform, but likely not to be powered by the Tau. http://www.motortrend.com/features/auto_news/2009/112_0907_kia_future_car_plans/index.html I...

I had a 2008 Kia Amanti for a rental car this weekend. As my wife and I pulled up into the Enterprise lot, she asked me which car I'd like.. I said, "Not the Kia!". Well, as it turns out - I liked it quite a bit. It's an Excellent mid-sized luxury car. It didn't have navigation, but it did have...

Just picked up a September 2008 issue of Motor Trend, and it has the ad for the 2009 Kia Borrego. Some of you have probably seen it but: There's more you can see at either: http://z4.invisionfree.com/CarsDiscussion_HQ/index.php?showtopic=172 or...

Okay, I know the description says it's Azera-based (FWD), but from what I can tell the proportions look a lot like the RWD Genesis. The wheels are the same as the V6 Genesis (minus the chrome inserts on each spokes and the centercaps). The sharkfin antenna and sideview mirrors also look the...
