Default Kia Soul

Anyone like it? My opinion I think it is a very unique car. From the shape of it, the interior, the angle of the windows, and a lot other. I think it would be a fun car to mod up as well as our beloved PT Cruisers Here are a few pictures the New Kia Soul

We have the Kia Rondo and pass by and go to the local dealers quite often (not for any problems) and have seen the Soul since they first hit the showrooms. Quite a unique little car and some "different" colors. Wife fell in love with a green, sort of with flashy wheels. Really noticeable.

do you by chance know if it's a hybrid? I know it got 142 HP but I can't get much specs/features out of the kiasouls website.

For something with a twist, at least on the exterior, there's also the Nissan Cube --- looks a little like a Scion that's missing it's right rear pillar entirely. I can't decide if I like it or hate it!

No, they say nothing about a Hybrid. 2.0 Liter, 4 cylinder, 142 hp, 24 city/30 hwy.

I dug it in the ads and on TV, but on the street, it just didn't do it for me.

yeah, I kinda agree I was so happy to see it in person then I was kinda let down, I don't know what it was that made it look so appealing. But I still think it has a lot of character.

Cool Re: Kia Soul

I spotted two in our parking garage this week!
The "rear ends" caught my attention! (That's a personal problem, I guess.)
But, I'd never buy something that small and under powered, unless it was a Hybrid. Ortherwise, why bother?
But, it does look like it would be receptive to some great mods!

I should have taken a picture but they have one at our local KIA dealer that's black with extra fog lights and fancy wheels and a wavey line of pink and white flowers running from front to back. Sure stands out.
