Tunic's new ride... 2011 Kia Forte Koup EX

[tunicwriter]

I'm only posting this because I'm afraid Alex may kill me if I go a day longer without posting pics. Enjooooy.

BONUS PIC! Mom's new 2006 G6 GTP Hardtop Droptop

Bonus points to the person who can correctly guess the number of GMs in this last pic

I really like these Forte Koups. Six speed or auto? The EXs seem so bland in comparison to the SX models.

And oh yeah, three GMs in the last pic. =P

Not bad, not my test but not bad lol.

and yes 3 GMs

That gauge cluster looks pretty cool.

I'm going to say 4, just cause in the top left corner it looks like it may be a Blazer...

Six speed auto ... I will agree with you, the EXs are a bit blander, but the only real difference is the motor and cosmetic stuff. For instance, the black portions of the front bumper are painted a glossy black on the SXs.

I'm leasing this one (first car in my name), and really wanted a Koup. It was what I could afford with my credit and price range. Give me 3 years, I'll have an SX fully loaded. But for now, the EX is pretty awesome

The gauge cluster is wicked awesome. What I find weird though is that there's no temp gauge. At all. Anywhere.

And yes! I managed to trick someone with the blurry pic! ... Just 3, the 4th you see is a Honda CUV. And then there's a Chrysler van back there as well.

I'm not going to do any mods I can't reverse or take to the next car or remove and sell when I turn it in. Right now, thinking stb (front & rear) and sway bars (front & rear), and perhaps a couple other susp. add-ons they have for them. I'd like to do coilovers but they're EX-PEN-SIIIIIIIIVE. HIDs (35W 6000k) are on order, got a couple LEDs on order for some interior stuff, and I'm thinking about doing LED switchbacks for the turn signals. And of course, the subwoofers will be going in at some point, I just need to get a new box (old box is too wide). Other than all that, we'll see as time goes on.
