2004 Kia Optima (114,000 Mi) Comes With Auto-start & Block Heater! on 2040-cars
Webster, Minnesota, United States
Hi There! :) Just a few examples of some of the work that has been done to it, it's had 2 new sets of tires, new spark plugs, a brand new block heater installed, new CV shafts installed, frequent tire rotations, oil changes, as well as other regular maintenance and other necessary repairs required upon reaching certain mileage. You will be able to see the receipts for all repairs/maintenance upon request if you are interested and would like to meet with me and check the car out/take it for a test drive. This Kia has under 115,000 miles on it, and has never been in an accident or fender bender since I have been the owner, AND when I purchased it from the dealership, it came with a clean Carfax report and title. Again, this car is in very good condition given its age, and would be perfect for a younger/new driver looking for a great first car. Plus, with winters in MN...we all know how nice it feels to get into a warm car without having to bundle up and go start it in the morning when it's 20 below. It can be started with a push of the remote up to a half mile away- very convenient for Winters here!!!! Comes with a spare set of keys, clean title, and peace of mind in knowing what you are getting for your money, at the time of purchase. Honest and transparent buyers only please! :) * This vehicle conforms to all applicable U.S.A. Federal motor vehicle safter, bumper, and theft prevention standards in effect on the date of manufacture (2004). Feel free to use the information about this car to look up Kelly Bluebook prices/comparisons. This is a GOOD price for this car. If you live somewhere within the Twin Cities/Metro area, I am more than happy to meet you somewhere in order to shorten the commute, just contact me and further arrangements can be made :) Prefer to sell to someone in MN, as the vehicle is equipped for Winters here! Thanks!!! |

Hyundai-Kia forecasts slowest sales growth in 8 years
Thu, 02 Jan 2014Even with the arrival of the new Hyundai Genesis Sedan (above) and the expected introduction of at least two other new vehicles in 2014, Hyundai-Kia is estimating its sales will only increase by about 4.1 percent this year. Bloomberg has found that figure, which works out to a total of 7.86 million vehicles worldwide, to be lower than average analyst estimates of eight million vehicles. If the automaker is correct, that figure will represent the most sluggish growth for the Korean brands since 2006.
Based on an exchange rate of 1,050 won to the dollar - right now it's trading at anywhere from 1,050 to 1,052 depending on where you look - Hyundai is predicting a 3.8-percent uptick for sales of 4.9 million units, while Kia is expecting a 4.7-percent uptick for sales of 2.96 million units. That exchange rate is predicted to be part of what will hamper sales this year, with a stronger South Korean won making Japanese cars more price-competitive when cross-shopped. It's unclear how Hyundai derived its exchange rate, but 1,050 won to the dollar almost matches the 52-week high for all of 2013.
The company chairman mentioned a "low growth era" in the world economy, and weaker US sales are rumored to at least part of the reason John Krafcik recently vacated the post of Hyundai Motor America CEO, a post that has been filled by executive vice president of sales, David Zuchowski. That unexpected news capped a year in which two top execs resigned over quality issues and recalls and Hyundai agreed to settle a consolidated lawsuit over inflated fuel economy ratings for $395 million.
2014 Kia Soul totally redesigned, now bigger and more refined
Wed, 27 Mar 2013The 2014 Kia Soul has been unveiled at the 2013 New York Auto Show, and the all-new five-door box-on-wheels offers up nearly an extra inch of wheelbase and a track that's wider by .6 inches. The changes offer up a bit more space indoors, and since overall height has remained the same, the Soul now looks a bit less top heavy than before. A wider rear hatch opening also makes loading and unloading cargo easier. Indoors, the 2014 Soul offers a substantially revised cabin with more soft-touch materials, and leather seats are now on the option sheet. Designers borrowed inspiration from the Kia Track'ster Concept indoors, using organic lines throughout.
An available eight-inch touch screen takes care of infotainment duties on the center stack, and now features the ability to scroll through content by flicking a finger, just like a smartphone, instead of paging through multiple screens. Buyers can also fit their 2014 Soul with a larger TFT LCD color screen in the instrument cluster, which now displays turn-by-turn directions on vehicles equipped with navigation.
Engineers managed to create a chassis that's also 29-percent stiffer, with 66 percent of the shell using ultra-high-strength steel for safety and rigidity. Under the hood, base models bow with a 1.6-liter direct-injection four-cylinder engine with 130 horsepower and 118 pound-feet of torque, while Plus and Exclaim trims get a more potent direct-injection 2.0-liter four-cylinder. That engine develops 164 hp and 151 lb-ft of torque, and both mills can be bolted to either a six-speed manual or automatic depending on trim.

Kia KX3 crossover concept leaked
Wed, 19 Nov 2014Despite all the focus on the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show, there's another increasingly important event happening on the other side of the planet. The Guangzho Motor Show is yet another expression of China's growing automotive might. Not only does the show boast a concurrent introduction with the LA Auto Show, in the form of the Mercedes-Maybach S600, but it has at least one exclusive item, with the Kia KX3 Concept.
Looking like a Soul mixed with a Sportage, the KX3 heralds the arrival of a production model based on the Hyundai ix35, known here in the US as the Hyundai Tucson. Whether that model will make Stateside, though, is another story.
If it does, World Car Fans claims it will be with either a 2.0-liter four-cylinder or a 1.6-liter turbocharged four, both of which should be familiar to Hyundai/Kia shoppers. While WCF says there will be a manual-transmission option, we shouldn't count on any gearbox beyond a dual-clutch automatic.
