Not bad at all. 270hp Hyundai turbo 4 coming later this year. Should be an excellent competitor.

Kia and Hyundai are both making some decent cars right now. I really like the Kia Forte coupe.

They are really going to put the hurt on a lot of car companies.

Great Looking cars, best value. Hyundai is coming up. Was shopping around, and buying my Genesis Coupe was the easiest decision.

Right not Hyundai owns 40% of Kia. I think within the next few years they will merge as 1 large company.

Very good looking car but $30K for the high end non-turbo variant would indicate the turbo would push over $30K and while I'm all aboard the Hyundai train...I'm not ready to stomach $30K for a Kia. Good looking car though and I hope it holds up as well as it looks.

I bought one of the 2011 sorentos and I have to say I am very impressed with it. My wife and I chose this over the cr-v and rogue.

Good-looking vehicle! If it's over $30K, though, it's going to be a tough sell, especially with the Kia name. Quite a bit more stylish than a RAV4 or CR-V, that's for sure.
