Looks like a baby Acura.
Agreed. A nice one at that!
Kia had a coupe concept a few months ago with a face similar to those of European Fords. I wonder if the front end of this will carry those design cues? I hope so!
Looks exactly like a sedan version of the Kia Koup concept from NY, which Kia basically said would be a new body style for the Spectra replacement -- evidently the Forte.

I was thinking Scion tC, but baby Acura is darn accurate. If Acura is going to give up their attractive styling, then why not let Kia capitalize?
This has got to be a first. People showing enthusiasm for a Kia Spectra! My my.
Nope, altimadude00. The Kia Koup concept Erin blogged about is pretty cool in my opinion. :o)
