It looks cheapish.

I don't know what it is specifically, but I don't like it.

-- but then again, I drive an Element, so I'm not qualified to have an opinion about other cars looking bad.

I like the mags but to me it looks like all the other mid range cars out there. I guess the only thing missing is a spoiler.

It isn't my style, nor really compatible with my lifestyle; so I think it is kind of fug and I wouldn't want to be in it in an accident on a snowy winter night against a giant American pick-up.

Farm equipment doesn't care about crumple zones. Hell the critters in the road would demolish that vehicle, and I mean the smaller ones like deer, not even cattle or elk.

To be honest, it looks like a mixture between a cheap version of the Infiniti G35/37 and a Honda Civic.

Kia and Hyundai have come a long way with their styling and reliability. Plus, they have a great warranty, better than most cars. I like it, so I give it about a 7, for what it is. That would have been sweet if the exhaust pipes were coming out of the middle, though.

btw: What do you do for Kia?

That ain't no lie. One of my co-founders recently lost his avalanche by hitting a deer. Damn game warden wouldn't even let him take the deer.
