Racing Red Koup SX
Fire Engine Red TK CAI (First anywhere!), TPS Mod, Rebadged, Bright Lip Spoiler, Deflector, VG Mk. II, Sedan Headlights with 8000k HID lows, D.D. Switchbacks and D.D. LED Fogs (Yellow)
My #1 isn't any sillier than half the "#3 in NA"s on here.
Considering the Forte is bred off the Elantra. Don't expect that much of a difference, also note the single outlet exhaust, almost kills any chance of a dual exhaust on the 2nd Gen Fortes.
Elantra Sedan, Touring (Hatch), Coupe
Forte Sedan, 5 (Hatch), Koup
The relationship is becoming just about complete it's going to be very similar to a Nissan/Infiniti (ie, exact same cars just one dumbed down version or as they keep putting it "more sporty version".)
I don't get it. What's with the obsession with a dual exhaust?
You only got 1 bank of cylinders. OUUU It looks more sporty...
Looking sportier than it actually is... that's the issue with the current Koup. It needs more power to back it's looks.
I hope Kia stays committed to SX scheme meaning putting in the DI 2.4L or the turbo 1.6L in to their next Forte to go for the Si, GTI and MS3's jugular.

It's symmetrical, and for me personally, I love the look. But yes, more power is definately needed.

Not necessarily. Its a prototype for one thing, and KIA may have redesigned the rear fascia and underbody to allow it. We're just gonna have to wait and see.
ahahaha love the dent!
I kinda like the elantra coupe. Been a fan of the new elantra since it came out, seeing the coupe now.. I like
