Just picked mine up yesterday SX manual titanium its amazing how hard it just got to buy a KIA Found the only dealer in NC that had one every other dealership said they were not even making it in a manual yet

Enjoy your ride deltron 21, I'll do the same tomorow :D

BTW...... what's your first impression????

so far so good still being nice till i get some mileage on her but all seems well so far, does get a little loose in the back over rough roads
 
Hey guys. I bought a Koup last week and just wanted to see if there's anybody else out there that loves the car just as much as me. I do a lot of driving so I opted for the EX model for a softer suspension and better gas milage, plus I like the less flashy wheels. I plan on doing a little cosmetic work to it like putting in a new grille, shaving off the badges and a few other things. I'll post pics as soon as I do it.
 
I bought my Koup about three weeks ago. I have the copper SX, six speed manual trans w/ cloth material one. I owned a civic for ten years before this kia and I have to say KIA has moved up inthe industry. If they were making cars like this for the last ten years I would of been buying and you can't beat the warranties. Heres mine...

Thank you... I already asked for tinted windows... :cool: should be done by tomorrow! I'm planning on adding Forte Led Eyeline and a black spoiler to fit the black parts on the front bumper. Can't wait till tomorrow!!! :D

I was planning on putting an AMP/Sub in the trunk but I'm not sure how it'll go with the stock radio... Do you know if I'll be able to or will I need to change the radio to have one with a sub pre-out??

Update : After thinking about it, black handle bars and black mirrors would even out that black & white look
 
finally got around to a pic cant wait to get it tinted and the light mod

I've been thinking of having my spoiler done in black also, it should fit the black accents on the front and the rear diffuser as well, I'm not sure though??? Mine is copperhead, but should still look good. Can anyone give me the paint code for the ebony black? is it the same as 9B - Midnight Black Metallic Clearcoat? <-- not sure about that, I don't think the black on the forte is metallic. The ebony black looks pretty much identical to the black accents around the fog lights, right?

If you get yours done I'd love to see a pic!

hey but what do you guys think ?

it's been now 2 months and a half that I'm waiting for this car. They called me today saying : " good news we have your car, but it was shipped to the wrong place. Don't worry, a driver will take it and he will drive it to our warehouse. To do so, he'll have to drive 200 km ".

So basically I waited almost 3 months to have a new car with 0 km, and I'll have a car with 200 km. is the 200km really because of the driver ? or is the 200km some test drives ? how the hell can I know the truth ??

what do you think!!

thanks
