I know it's wrong

[farrendahl]

But I'm quite liking the look of this. Yes it's a Kia, yes it's in tacky Matte Black and yes it's not available in the UK but there is something about the Forte Koup that I actually like. I'm alone on this aren't I?

It looks alright but how does it go?

[alcovrugbyfan]

thats actually quite pretty for a Kia. Front looks like a Honda Accord and the back like Alfa GT coupe.

Doesn't look bad, is that the one based on the EVO that they mentioned on top gear?.

[Laurel Green]

Nope! Looks quite purposeful.

A what?

[Chicane-UK]

Not bad at all!

[farrendahl]

FWD, hardly surprising there and with it being made for the American market a six speed auto box (or six speed manual) 2.0L and 2.4L four-cylinder engines so I'm betting probably not going to set the world alight performance wise, but I would put money on the fact that if they sold them over here they probably would shift a fair few as a competitor against say the Hyundai Veloster.

Looks alright, matte black included. Just don't like the fluorescent bits.

[geeteeaye]

I actually really like that! Looks like the lovechild of a GTR and a Monaro.

[volvoforlife]

Thought it was a honda!

What is a Koup?

[farrendahl]

Me thinks maybe Kia missed a trick by giving us the C'eed instead of this which shares the same platform.

I'd imagine it's a made up word like C'eed

[TheEnd]

Tidy bit of kit, that.

Kia probably don't want to ruin their reputation of selling cars for pensioners though.

It looks strikingly similar to a Scion Tc
