Good luck with the buy.

I always think of the Soll as the XB's West Virginia cousin.

It's not bad looking. It could be worse, could be a Cube. Those cars are ugly as hell.

LOL!!!

I really like the Soul, and the Cube. Not a fan of the new xB though. I'm sure you'll have few problems with it. My dad had had nothing but hyundai since 1990 and has had no major issues. My mom has an 04 Kia Spectra and it's been a good car.

I can so picture your avatar in the driver's seat.

And I hate when they put the rear speakers in the rear doors.

x2 on the cube being cool... I like them all over the new Xb... new Xb = ugly

I think the Cube, xB, and Soul are all ridiculously Ugly.

Mr Josh Zombie · Post by **Mr Josh Zombie** » Mon Jun 14, 2010 9:21 pm

I'm part of the cube lover club. Also, Gen2 xB can be sexy when modded IMO. The Soul, Nitro, and Element are all butt ass ugly.

They seem more like a step backwards in the car industry, rather than forwards...

So did it come with the hamsters too?

theTeejmiester · Post by **theTeejmiester** » Mon Jun 28, 2010 5:45 am

hamsters?? i thought they were rats???

nicklaneSXT · Post by **nicklaneSXT** » Mon Jun 28, 2010 10:56 am

yes they r hamsters and sad to say it didnt come with one but in the process of trying to get one from the dealer.
jeff- step backwards?? no. bluetooth that automatically downloads ur phones phonebook everytime u start the car, leather, heated seats, sirius satellite radio, 18" rims, steering wheel controls, ipod and usb hook ups, 8 speakers sound system, tons of awards see link http://www.kia.com/#/soul/awards , very inexpensive, industry leading warranty 10 year/100,000 mile, and the euro ones has gps and back up camera. there is more but too lazy, its a great vehicle.

MyNeonSaysHi · Post by **MyNeonSaysHi** » Mon Jun 28, 2010 12:23 pm

He was quoting how ugly they were. The features you speak of can't change that. In the eye of the beholder of course.

MoxHair · Post by **MoxHair** » Mon Jun 28, 2010 12:27 pm

Do you spend most of your time defending how ugly the car is with stats from the dealership brochure?

Glad you like your car, but for the most of us It's ugly, that goes for those ridiculous wheels too.

nope most ppl like the car and its features (some dont like the dragon decal tho) im still on the fence on the back dacal but i like the one on the hood, i wish i had the brochure i wouldve list way more things, and your the first that didnt like the wheels, i love them, i asked what u guys thought im not butt hurt bout ur opinion, i knew most ppl on here wouldnt like it, u either love it or hate it

MyNeonSaysHi · Post by **MyNeonSaysHi** » Tue Jun 29, 2010 1:30 am

Some people get over sensitive over opinions on the internetz. Its sad.

You love it, thats all that matters man.

FAC3L3SS · Post by **FAC3L3SS** » Tue Jun 29, 2010 1:45 am

For sure. As crazy as those cars are, I'd drive a base one and just colormatch all the black plastic pieces. Nothing like 18" stock rims to butcher your tire budget, as well.

Mr Josh Zombie · Post by **Mr Josh Zombie** » Tue Jun 29, 2010 9:33 am

i learned from the cobalt. fuck stock 18" rims
