Well, we (wife and myself) were just in the market for a new car. Had a Suzuki Wagon but still felt a little cramped for space and highway driving wasn't the greatest. Looked at the Caliber, Honda CRV, Toyota Rav-4, Kia Sportage, Saturn Vue and of course a new PT. Each had their own good and bad qualities but what we ended up with was a brand new model from KIA. Everything about it fit our needs and what we got for the price and 3.6% financing topped the cake. 2.7L V6 (182hp), 5 speed automatic, third row of seats (if needed)and only 9 inches longer than the PT, 4 wheels disks with ABS, traction control, low tire warning, power sunroof/door/mirrors. 17" 5 spoke wheels and tons of room and cubby holes throughout. We opted for the cloth seats and light interior color for the Florida sun and I just had the windows tinted. Out the door for 22K (including taxes, title, tag transfer and dealer prep [xx(]
Now as far as retro, sporty or eye grabing exterior ...not the top of the line, but not to ugly either.

Oh yea, kinda a funky name for a "crossover" car ....RONDO
