    I'm not sure why we continue to be surprised by Kia's design. Even though they're not breaking any new ground, they've been pretty solid with all of their recent cars, from the cee'd to the Soul to the Forte to this.

    But, what will the non-comformist old people drive? Are they going to be forced into a stripper Buick Lucerne?

    Damn you Kia! You and your fancy-pants styling that actually looks good! How am I supposed to hate you and make snarky remarks about a car that I actually don't mind?


    Instead, I'm going to have to revert to nitpicking to make myself feel better. Like scoffing at 277-hp since the Taurus SHO will be getting 365 hp or thereabouts. I will, however, refrain from making some xenophobic remarks about the angle of the headlights.

    @engineerd: 277hp base model vs. 365hp hi-po model? What's the base model Taurus get?


    Hardly a fair comparison.

    @elwood: 263 is expected for the 2010 Taurus in base trim.


    I wasn't trying to make a fair comparison. In fact, if anything, I was trying to be unfair. I don't want to like a Kia, but this car is actually attractive, so I've resorted to unfair comparisons and ridiculousness to keep myself from saying something like, "This car might actually make it on my list of cars to consider in the future."

    Did they seriously just simultaneously jack the styling of both Buick and Lincoln?

    I knew the name seemed familiar. BLUE WILLOW is that traditional china pattern that's seen everywhere from Asian restaurants to grandmothers' collections.

    Concepts are always crazy. I like that Hyundai is trying to think deeper into to efficiency and being green. Where the actual production and materials of the car are also green.


    I am looking at you Prius, with your Nickel from around the world

    I usually appreciate Hyundai's stuff, but this is hideous. Both the sum of the parts, and the individual parts themselves.

    What the hell do they do to designers these days?


    They must beat them about the head for a while, hand them a piece of paper and a pen, and then say "Go draw a car."


    Look at the infinity symbol cues on the side.
