I should explain you about the official days at the auto shows:
For the press, it starts on 2nd, while for public it opens on 4th!

Those who have visted such an important auto show do know, that once the show is opened for public, it’s quite impossible to take some good video or images, because there are hundreeds of visitors checking out exhibited cars, therefore, automotive press journalists get to the show a day or two earlier than the rest of the “world”.

From the official KME media website:

” …Kia Press Conference
The Kia Soul urban crossover will make its world premiere on the Kia stand (No 520, Hall 5) at the Paris International Motor Show at 16.45 hrs on 2 October 2008. …”

That’s 4 hours and 36 minutes away….

Few young drivers might just keep the lights dim or turned off when he drives alone and brightens it to show it off to his friends when he takes them for a ride.

I guess some people might like the pulsing lights, but then again: some people even like pink figaro’s… (as seen on kia-forums dot com)
But for me: no thanx! Furthermore i wonder how much young (and relatively unexperienced) drivers will be distracted by the pulsing lights… But that, of course, is an other discussion!

The pulsing lights around the speakers rock! But that’s only a minor reason to love the Kia Soul.

Actually there is only one reason why I wouldn’t buy it so far… The pulsing lights!

It’s definitely not too far out there as far as interior design, but I certainly wouldn’t call it conservative with the two tone dash and seats. If they made it too out there, I don’t think they’d pull as many people in. This vehicle is not only going to appeal to the young generation, but I think it will appeal to those downsizing, perhaps those whose kids have left the house. The seating position is not unlike an SUV or a minivan, but it has the gas mileage of a small sedan. I see as many older folks with Scion xB’s as I see younger drivers.

I´m sorry but the interior reminds me the Kia Rio. Unfortunally i dont like very much, i think is oldfashion, I dont like the stering wheel in two colours. Outside i think the Soul have a very good design.

I like the pulsing lights idea. That’s really cool.
