Get Ready For Your Ride In A Koup Giveaway - CLOSED
What kind of car do you drive?
You don't have to tell me...cuz honestly I won't remember.
But I drive a Kia.
A 2007 Kia Rondo to be specific. Before I had this car I had a 2005 Kia Optima which I loved, loved, loved but it wasn't big enough for my family. And...my husband drives a 1998 Kia Sephia. It's a little old, a little beat up and we are not the original owners, but that car is still going strong. He drives it every day.
A 2007 Kia Rondo to be specific. Before I had this car I had a 2005 Kia Optima which I loved, loved, loved but it wasn't big enough for my family. And...my husband drives a 1998 Kia Sephia. It's a little old, a little beat up and we are not the original owners, but that car is still going strong. He drives it every day.
When we decided to trade in our Optima there was no doubt in our minds that we wanted another Kia. The warranties are FABULOUS, they get great gas mileage, exceptional safety ratings and you can't beat the quality for the price. You really do get your money's worth.
So, yeah...we love our Kia's.
Kia has just recently released the 2010 Kia Forte Koup.
The world has never seen anything quite like this. A unique combination of class-leading standard horsepower, fuel efficiency and advanced standard features. The Kia Forte Koup. The first of its kind.
- 22/32 MPG city/hwy (estimated)
- 10 year/10,000 mile warranty
- 60/40 Split folding rear seat (to maximize trunk space)
- Dual body-color heated power mirrors w/turn signal indicator
- 6-way adjustable driver's seat
- Dual front advanced airbags
- Dual front seat - mounted side airbags
- Full length side curtain airbags
- TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System)
- ESC (Electronic Stability Control)
- Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH)
And, and, and....the Kia Forte Koup is the only car in it's class that comes with:
- Bluetooth connectivity
- MP3/USB input
- Satellite Radio
...on all standard models. Yes...the standard model comes with all that.
My car has a lot of these options as well (I've bolded the options my car has). ESC is great for Utah winter's as it really helps when there is ice and snow on the road. The TPMS is great as I always know when my tire(s) are low, which helps not only preserve the life of the tire, ensure tires are properly and safely inflated but can help with gas mileage as well. (I previously complained about this light not going off no matter what we did...good thing for that 10 year/10,000 mile warranty. I can get it checked out.)
And this is the main vehicle for our family. So safety is incredibly important. With all the airbags and LATCH system I feel confident we are all riding safely. And let me tell you...if you have kids in carseats, LATCH is your best friend!
I would totally buy one of these Kia Forte Koup's. But I'd buy it for my husband to drive. As it is not a practical vehicle for me personally, with having to tote three kids around and carseats and all that jazz. I need four doors. But hubby could drive this to and from work. It would be a fabulous upgrade to his little Kia Sephia...that we've nicknamed "The Hoopty".

Ok, so I've rambled enough about my love for my car and Kia in general.

I realized that they can park a dozen new vehicles in a way that creates a perfect circle (or did they photoshop that). The five cars in the back face into the circle while the cars in the front face out of the circle so that the viewer always sees the headlights and never the taillights of the vehicles.

I found from their site that they had a special lease offer in my area, ended 11/2/09 though. I think Kia Motors has great cars in reasonable price, I'd keep my eyes on promo if ever consider to replace mine.
