March is gone and in comes April 2016 with a snowstorm that blasted the east coast and cold rain/hail/thunderstorms that struck Texas, Ohio and others. Have a great Tuesday friends as the week rolls on and stay safe out there!
Tha Kia Soul News starts with another great Kia accomplishment: 2 million vehicles produced here in the United States at their Kia Motors Manufacturing Georgia plant which is both state of the art and capable of producing some of the Kia name plates we know and love like the new Optima and Sorento. A 2016 white Sorento SXL rolled off the line as number 2 million. Great job Kia! More info here.
Kia Motors America Also hit another record with March 2016 total sales. 59,278 vehicles moved off the lots with the new Kia Forte as the leader. With year to date sales up and double digit increased sales with multiple models since January 2016 the year for Kia is going really great with its best quarter sales so far. The Kia Soul is still on a consistent roll and doing very well on year to date numbers also. Congrats KMA! All info here.
Switching gears a little a number of you all are very interested in how to get your hands on the 2014-2016 Kia Soul Exclaim 5 star alloy wheels or a different color wheel insert accent interchangeable kit(s) seen here in my original write-up for all markets.
The kits come in a handful of colors but if they are sold separately or not from the wheels or period by Kia I am not sure of. You may get some good info from your local dealer as well. The Soul is the only vehicle I know of with this unique feature of the exclaim wheels and similar trims overseas and Canada.
Checking Ebay, Amazon, wrecking/salvage yards or similar might yield some sellers. Also, if you currently own the wheels how about painting, wrapping them or use the Plasti Dip from hardware stores and so. There are people who have Plasti Dipped their whole car as the stuff is very durable and professional in many colors. Your choices are endless with so many products now.
I love what Mr. Sprague said about the "New Kia" and how the brand continues to challenge everything people think they know about it. Well said sir I agree. Two pics below one of the 2 millionth 2016 Sorento produced in Georgia and a red/black two-tone 2016 Kia Soul with the red wheel insert accent kit looking so hot and tempting from the Czech Republic. Enjoy.
