^Ugh a family auntie got suckered into an Eclipse after getting the runaround at Toyota Richmond. The thing is alright but it feels like a downgrade from the string of RAV4s she had (and kept totaling) - definitely would not pay $40k for one. I don't know if I should be happy or sad that she skipped visiting Nissan.

Lol - it wasn't a V6 base model, it was something fairly specific. And it doesn't suck, I promise!

Finally found something for the wife, was looking for a vehicle that wasn't a gas pig that would get her to and from work and that I didn't have to finance knowing our mortgage is going up next year. She wanted a Corolla Hatchback and I've tried but came to the realization that's impossible unless she wants to wait another 6-12 months or I pay more than MSRP for a used on.

I was looking online and seen the Kia Forte GT Limited which was new and only a few thousand more MSRP than a new Corolla XSE that she wanted, I was surprised at how nice the interior was for an eco box.

Just have to get the rear windows tinted, not terrible for a car in the low 30's.

Non-Hyundai N cars also have that red line along the bottom of the car too within the same parent company? Way to dilute your N branding Hyundai / Kia.

Kia Forte GT is a low key decent eco box, definitely more exciting than a Corolla

Turbo 4 pot with a 7 speed DCT.

The only difference between Korean and American cars, is that the American cars spend 20% of their profits, paying lawyers to prevent recalls for as long as possible
