Really its quality, not quantity. I rather take an old beat up civic then a brand new Kia any day.
What do you guys think about this? - 6G Celicas Forums
All cars thies days look the same (or getting close to the same look) so its hard to judge one company over the other for it
IDK, i think a 6 spd with 174hp behind it is overkill 5 gears would do just fine, also I do my best to stay away from kia, my girlfriends mom has a spectra and her dad has a rio, neither are base models and man there reliable to a point but CHEAP, very CHEAP materials and just feels cheep and loose IMO.
There are Much better used cars then new kia's (my opinion anyway.)

Actually, that's a second gen. This is the first gen.
But I'm in complete agreement.. They are still some of the ugliest cars on the road, and there is absolutely no comparison to the 6gc.

>^ Those first gens are SO ugly...seriously, they're right up there with the Aztec, etc. But the second gens are pretty nice.

^ I just looked more closely, the quad-headlight is a facelift. The second gens look pretty decent.

Now Im not one to drive a kia nor would i ever buy one but bang for buck statring price for it is 17,600 and thats with the 6speed 174hp w/ 10y/100,k warranty, 22city/32hwy and the civic SI is 22,000 and thats w/ a 5speed 197hp w/ 3y/36,k warranty, 21city/29hwy
so over all you would be spending $4400 for 23hp, lower warranty and slight less gas milage.
Just my little fyi
