I personally think KIA blew it on this one. The colors for the Forte are pretty generic. Silver, black, red, blue, white etc. All good colors but for 2011 they discontinued the awesome Copperhead color. To me, this was the coolest color. Something a little different and the Sedan and Koup both looked good in it. I washed and waxed my Copperhead Sedan yesterday and I don't think you'll find a better looking Forte...

I guess the good thing is that my car will sort of be a collector's item.

I have a Copperhead sedan too and like the color...I'm sure Kia has researched the issue. While I do see a lot of copperhead-colored Kias on this site I don't see that many on the street. Probably the numbers sold indicate it was not worth keeping copperhead on the new models.

My 03 Sorento is aquablue -- looks light blue with a hint of green in sunlight and light green with a hint of blue in the shade. I like the color a lot but it was discontinued on the 04 models...probably for the same reason.
