I've been on the the sight all summer reading posts, trying to make my final car buying decision. Went for the koup, instead of a fiesta or tc.. and I'm so happy I bought the kia. Coming from a muscle car background, I never would've expected to fall in love with a little korean car within 3 days of owning it.
I'd love to be in contact with any other koup owners in the tristate area!
Maybe not "muscle car" but more so than an asian car. I sold my 97 mustang gt this past week. Had a 4.2 stoker, 315's on the back..a really fun project car that I put too much money into over 2 years. I like my koup though, I enjoy the car scene change.
Congratulations on your smart choice.
I grew up around muscle cars. They still rock. There's something about the smell of fuel and thunderous sounds that come from those monsters that you simply can't feel around 4 bangers.
