Can't beat 10/100. You just can't. I plan on upgrading to something else before I rack up 100,000 miles, so I think I'm playing it pretty safe.

Kia has done as much in the way of making headway on the market as the Hyundai Motor Company that owns them. The Sonata and Optima share the same 2.7L V6 and pretty damn good Infinity sound system, along with heated leather seats, a woodgrain and leather steering wheel and projector head/foglights. And I guess I'm the only crazy in the entire freaking world that finds the Spectra5 a pretty damn entertaining car for the money. I'm biding my time now, actually, until I can roll a red one with the 5-speed and sunroof.

Or my alternative is to roll a rattletrap Cavalier that rides as if the suspension were welded directly to the frame that traces its lineage to a time before I was even born. The choice to me is rather obvious.
