They fuck you like an animal at the dealership I bet. But you'd have to have a head like a hole to drive a Kia.

What a terrible lie! You're nothing but a pretty hate machine biting the hand that feeds on your downward spiral to hurt. Now stop being so fragile underneath it all and come closer for the greater good and meet your master.

Value brands are making a huge effort to disassociate themselves from... Well. Themselves.

Look at the shape of a Mercedes, or a Porsche. Certain shapes and lines and other things suggest the make and model, not just the logo. Kia and Hyundai specifically are moving away from looking like the shitboxes they arem

I saw the new mustang the other day, that vehicle has bastardized the brand. Electronic suv, get the fuck out.

I don’t know if I can agree with you calling them shitboxes. At least not in 2022 and not for the last 10 or so years. Unmatched power train warranty. The styling on them (in my opinion) is now top notch. Loaded with a ridiculous amount of features (most cars have too many features but I’m old and I don’t like having so many things to glitch, die and/or break).

Kia and Hyundai are popular rental cars. I prefer when I get one because it is usually way nicer than the same tier nissan or Toyota they’re renting.

They definitely aren't as bad as say... A Lada, or the Hyundai of the late 80s... But that said, how many 20 year old Kia's do you see on the road? Everything about them is designed to cost less today, at the expense of tomorrow. My kia was so shitty that I had the seats replaced under the 5 year warranty it came with. I had some part in the transmision replaced under warranty when it got stuck between 5th and reverse. And I had the pleasure of selling it to a used car dealer who didn't check that it had trouble shifting into 5th without pressing the clutch twice. Which happened as soon as the warranty ended

Compared with my Toyota Camry I bought to replace it which has lasted 3 times as long, with no warranty claims, and only schedule maintenance over 200,000 km

I hear ya. But if you were driving a manual transmission Hyundai, how old was it? I noticed the marked improvement in quality back in the mid-late 2000's. And their prices are still more affordable than Toyota/Honda. But keep in mind, I'm addressing you calling them shit boxes.

You're asking the right person about how many 20-year-old Hyundai do I see on the road. I was a finance manager for used car dealership for some time. And no, I rarely saw a road worthy car like that.they were pieces of shit. But I did and do see a lot of 10-year-old kia and Hyundai. So I think they're really in the right direction.

I have signed up many a customer for a 2010ish Kia Forte and Kia Soul. They're economy cars but they've held up well enough for me to get hefty commissions on extended warranties and never get canceled because the loss run reports went south. And the same can be said for the Sonata and Sante Fe. Cheaper, reliable transportation.

Are they Toyota or Honda? Absolutely not. But the gap has closed significantly.

Just my two cents and experience.

Could be that Nine Inch Nails was really big in South Korea in the late 90s early 00s when Kia came out.

I thought I was the only one who thinks that every time I see a Kia. NIN could def win a copyright case against their logo.

Anybody seen a Yugo lately? or ever?

I got to sit in one at a car show before they were on the market. I just sat down and started laughing out loud.

No yugos. Just gremlins and rabbits.

The purple Gremlins were my favorite. If the paint hadn't already peeled.

I was driving through Texas picking up some equipment the last couple days. I saw several of them before realizing what they were. So crazy seeing a post regarding something similar now.
