Got an '07 Kia Spectra today. After looking at the ratings and whatnot and comparing prices, the Kia seemed to be my best bet. I started looking at Corollas, but they were out of my price range. Plus, the salesman was a real slimeball anyway, the Kia place was much more customer-friendly. So, I got myself a new car. Photos to come tomorrow AM.

I've got an '01 Kia Sephia (that's the model that the Spectra replaced). Do yourself a favor and NEVER go to the dealership for any maintenance/repair work. They will always charge at least twice what a normal mechanic would charge.

That's my old car in the foreground. Looks jealous, no?

You'll never forget your first new car. Congrats.

BTW, if you pour water on the dash do little green plants sprout out of it? Ka-ka-ka-Kia! :laugh2:

:laugh2:I knew someone would say something about that. I am over the line, but I'm not in the bushes, that was just the angle I took the picture at.

Thanks again, everyone.
