i like the new xb, over the soul, anyday.AZ89two4Tsx wrote:Bleh, I'm not a fan of those. They're definitely different though, can't deny that.
I much prefer the new Kia Soul.
I liked the cube from jdm land then it became all ghey when they decided to send it over here.Jesda wrote:Old cube is cool. New cube is gayer than aids.
It's a f***ing economical vehicle, not f***ing Steve McQueen's dragster.Don't turn this into that thread. Swap it with a f***ing K20 if you want good fwd power.asoomal wrote:It's not a f***in vehicle man.
I wouldn't mind if it had power, but 122hp out of a 1.8L? Come on, throw VVL in there and boost it to atleast 185.

This is eventually going to be an electric vehicle. One's already been made for the government. Think of it as Nissan's smartCar or Nissan's geoMetro.asoomal wrote:Still.....122hp is brutal. Hell it might even get better mileage if it did have a little bit more power. Less energy needed to move it.
140 and 155 seems kinda low for a 2.4L. Our KA's suck stock.asoomal wrote:lol my 240 isn't fast...
I was saying, 122 seems kinda low for 1.8L.
In this economy people aren't searching for horsepower. They're looking for gas mileage and reliability. Horsepower can always be changed if need be. Mileage always stall around the same mpg's unless you do some ridiculous mod.People have no time or money to look at who's economical vehicle is faster.I'm sure it gets up and goes when it needs to. Not as fast as other cars, but oh well.asoomal wrote:lol my 240 isn't fast...
I was saying, 122 seems kinda low for 1.8L. They could have atleast designed it with a variable valve timing system. You'd probably get decent mileage too.
That is because the KA is a truck motor.....more torque orientated...AZ89two4Tsx wrote:

form coherent argument. research your argument. if incorrect, form new argument. otherwise, state your argument and not look uninformed.Space Monkey wrote:
