It was Professonal yet fresh. The music says techonolgically savy. Like the kind of cars younger professionals like myself under 40 should buy. I Like Hyundai’s press conference too.

THEY HAVE ANTHONY SULLIVAN INTRODUCNG OUR VEHICLES MAN!!!!!!!! He was the Oxy Clean guy before Billy Mays, and we know Billy Mays died about 10 months ago. - I think tat'ssweet. - Now they need a young up and coming actor/Actress to advetise the cars too. - I actually like where they are going with it they need to make it more funny, becuase it has that live/taped audience Comedy show vibe.

Nex Gen Forte should be a Mazda 3 Killa, and Im confident it will. They might not even wait that long, they might just wait for a 2011 Refresh and do it that way.

Genesis was the brand defining statement. Now you guys need a product that can functon as a "Halo" car and a brand defining statement. - A Kee with like 450Hp would get people into the dealers, and get people to take KIA seriously when it says it wants to be sporty. After that a Forte Wagon that can fairly beat a Mazda speed 3 would get people cemented into the Idea that KIA=Sport.

They are pumping the Hyundai brand up first, while getting KIA more mainstream. Once KIA becomes more mainstream, they will get a guy in there who will take KIA Motors USA to new heights. Remember, they started with Hyundai in 2000. They turned it into a mainsteam brand by giving the car an aspriational upmarket look, and now they are fully upmaketing the brand. - KIAs are now looking sporty, but I think they need to have variants that can pack a punch. KIA needs a halo Sports product to take the sporty look, and make the car perform how it looks. Then KIA needs to translate that performance through the range, boosted by a John Krafick like guy Sorento, I think Schrayer is the guy,but that’s a few years off.
