Will you be adding Kia to your product range, Rick?

Unlikely, it would take up too much room in the shop!

Hmmmm. This move makes me think of the casework (if that word is even appropriate) of the 210 and the 218. What an achievement to make two rather good products look so cheap and nasty.

Hi you all,
if you want something decent; get an ASTON MARTIN V600.

I just test drove the Kia EV5 GT, and the only thing about it that was better than a Tesla was the Meridian sound system. It was terrific. The Tesla sounds muddy by comparison. This time, however, it was the manual seats in a $62k car that failed the wife acceptance test.

I don't know much about Meridian but I have experience Tesla. Tesla is a good one no doubt. What do you think?
