Journey with a 2013 Hyundai Sonata 2.0 limited CPO I purchased a vehicle in June and by the end of July it was part of the campaign and to my surprise I got a new motor turbo a long block and from there I started my mods I began with my suspension and brakes my newest modification which is been...

If there's a deal, we're going to find it! As Cyber Monday spilled into Cyber Week we've been seeing more and more sales promos. Here's what we've spotted. Sears has snowblowers on sale as much as 58% off Tool kits, smartphone mounts, and DEWALT power tools are all on sale via Amazon at...

They did a lot right with this car. I'll be posting more details in the hybrid subforum. Greetings from sunny central Texas.

I rented a Ford Fusion Titanium for work last week. It does feel like a more solid car, but the turbo noise sounds like a vacuum cleaner and the interior is claustrophobic. Radio was no better, seats not as comfortable. I feel sorry for the suckers leaving Optima going to a Fusion bland...

Hey Everyone, Obviously I am new here, and new to Kia. I bought my Optima on Monday 3-30, shes a white LX. I had a 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee AWD that I absolutely loved, but the gas mileage was killing me. I was not sure exactly what I was getting myself into when I got into the car for a test...

I just wanted to explain my experience so far, maybe it is the dealership I bought the car at but I am getting frustrated. I bought the Optima two weeks ago yesterday. After leaving the dealership I noticed the navigation system does not work. The dealership made an appointment for me to...

Went bike riding this weekend and was carting around two mountain bikes for about 90 mile round trip. Having those things hanging out back and the extra gear in the trunk and back seat took a toll on my economy, couldn't get above 32mpg. 3 days later and i'm getting close to 34 while the tank...

So it's been over a year since I got my 2012 and while the economy was good, the way it was set up initially to drive was annoying but I dealt with it. Around late April/May time frame while in for my first service I spotted a 2013 and got one to take out for a spin, loved the way it drove and...

I'm sure we have all added (or tried to add) a mod that ended up being a complete failure. Some may have been immediately noticeable and never made it out of the driveway, some may have lasted a week. Some of you may be toughing it out and still have them in place. Share it and make us all...

Greetings everyone. Kevin here from Far North Dallas, TX. Purchased a 2012 Optima SX in Corsa Blue back in June 2013. Couldn't be more pleased with Kia. Looking for some mods(cosmetic and performance) that won't void the factory warranty. Thanks in advance for all info as I'll be...

Although testing is still ongoing, this 2 peice downpipe is GOING to make good clean gains IMO. I've done lots of things to my car, this thing just feels like the engine/turbo loves it. I'll post more when I have access to my laptop and not my cell!

Just waiting for some more things I ordered..should be here in a few days so will have more pics up soon!!!

New 2013 Hybrid EX Owner here. Really digging the Hybrid. No complaints so far.

Hi... I have been here a while but normally read and learn more than i post... I love messing around with cars an trucks that go!!! Im pretty sure the first mod I will do is the ridge collars as the car will handle more will my old 330ci I had... hope to learn about any other good tricks...

Got home today and and siad *&$% it, I'm going to put my wheels on "@*$% the snow! (almost gone) I bought my wheels in the fall and never got to put them on the car so I have been itching to get them on. I got home pulled out all my stuff and started changing tires, get the back rim on and WOW...

So I just got my new car in pearl white and with the 20% tinted windows I have to say it looks pretty bad-ass. Any way.....I came here hoping some of you could help me out with a few questions I have so far. 1. I'm not crazy about the standard KIA badge so I'm thinking about switching them out...

Hey guys, I just hooked up a pioneer 4 channel amp in my wifes ride last night. Im using the channels for the fronts and bridged the rear for the sub. Amp is under passenger seat and cant be seen, because i went with a class d full range amp allowing a small footprint along with less amp draw...

I went from a 2003 Saab 93 Arc to a 2008 Nissan Maxima to a brand spanking new 2013 Kia Optima SX-L (white with white interior). I was looking at an Infinity G37 and an Acura TL (Audi A6 is too far out of my price range at this point) but decided to try the best value with the Optima SX-L...

my SX only has about 700 miles on it and out of the 200 miles on this tank, 50 were highway, the rest real city driving, as in brutal stop-and-go. the computer says i am only at about 16.5 mpg, with all but the 50 highway miles in ECO. since the car isn't quite broken in yet i am not freaked...
