Per avere successo dovrebbe puntare su un design moderno ed accattivante, così coma è stato fatto per il SUV "Sorento", che ha avuto un enorme successo soprattutto per il design e per la meccanica adeguata. E' un'automobile che suscita il mio interesse. Attualmente guido una Jaguar "X tipe"ed in passato ho avuto una Citroen "XM" e Alfa Romeo "166". Quando entrerà in produzione, se sarà bella, credo che una visita presso un concessionario Kia la farò! FROM PESCARA, ITALY

Acording to my informations new Spectra will first debut in S.Korea at the end of 08, and America early 09. Other parts of the world, including Indonesia, should follow soon after that!

Since it is beeing build in Slovakia, it would be very costly to export them out of europe... it is not close to any ocean. to be frank we do not see much on the new optima ( magentis in Canada )… hard to comment

The overall body seems to be the same as now, but there are major chnages on the grill and front lights. The grille and lights seem to be similar to that found on Kue concept, don't you think?

We assume that it`s a "face- lifted" Optima but it really is so much different than the current Optima I wonder? That whole front end is different , with diferent headlights and all - seems too much bodywork change for just a "face-lift" and more like "next -generation " ?What do you think ?

It resembles the back of our Optima, so it's a possibility. Kia may have loved the Spectra wheels enough to use them on the Optima to throw us off. Actually, that back end could be Optima too.

You know it`s interesting how certain pics inlfluence people differently. When I look at the third pic of the Spectra rear end, I see a short deck and almost a "bangle- butt" type of concept, gleened from BMW ! Weiiiird . I really like this by the way. No probs Boris !
