UPDATE:
Last evening, guys from Autoblog and other automedia had been invited to check out this newest Kia concept even before it’s official unveiling. They took some great shots and I will dare to publish some of those here on KIA-WORLD, while you can see other teaser shots at their blog.
Newely taken images are revealing another breath taking concept from Kia. Two door concept car, named KOUP, will be debuting at New York today!
Kia’s press conference starts today at 9:40 AM EST and soon after that you’ll be able to find out more about the KOUP. We have some great official images, KOUP description and technical specifications prepared for you!

Hey guys! You shouldn’t miss this! I have just got some official shots from Kia and I can tell you this car looks d*** sexy! This is an awesome design and if it stays close to production when this Kia hits the roads, we have a new winer!!!!

I’m so excited! my mouth is watering and cheeks are tingling and I can barely type. (I really mean it) A kia with brembo brakes is something so new! Those wheels are thrillers… no no… their killers!.

I hope it will have the V8. They’ve used a lot of carbon fibre on it. Its got H-shaped tail lights. This thing way ahead of Any Kia. I cant wait to see the official pics, the interior and the specs.

Get serious Boris:) (joke)
This is based on Spectra platform and it can not have a V8. I would be more excited if I heared a 2.0 turbo. This is something Kia is missing.

WOW! This is a lot sportier than I thought. Strange this looks sportier and more mature than hyundai’s Genesis coupe.
March 20th, 2008 at 11:42 am
woot! i dun know if i should save up a bit more for this instead of the soul or not!!! i also want the Genesis Coupe but kia will probably be better in the end anyways. from wat i can see, i would have thought its a BK based car…
March 20th, 2008 at 11:43 am
oh yea but they did say its something based off the spectra so i guess thats it then. awesome job then!!! the lights look the same as the spy pics’ too~
March 20th, 2008 at 11:46 am
True, It looks similar to the spy pics.
How about an engine…Are you ready for 300 hp Kia?
March 20th, 2008 at 12:18 pm
When you say 300hp I think its a BIG V6 or a turbocharged 4 cyl beta engine.
March 20th, 2008 at 12:23 pm
Well you are partly right! It’s not a V6 but the other one, although it’s not Beta engine.
I will reveal all the secrets of this concept at 3:00 PM
March 20th, 2008 at 2:28 pm
WHAT???? I WISH I HAD ACCESS TO PRESS RELEASE MATERIAL!!!
March 20th, 2008 at 3:06 pm
If himi means 3 pm in his place, then we have to wait a little less than 1 hr from now.
March 20th, 2008 at 5:40 pm
