I purchased this car new in October 2006 and have been the sole owner.  I'm selling it so that I can move to Boston next month, where I won't need a car.  


50% of the sale goes to support Living Rivers, a small grassroots nonprofit leading the fight to protect the Colorado River and surrounding areas from destructive fossil fuel projects.  Living Rivers is run by John Weisheit, the Colorado Riverkeeper, who has led the fight to prevent tar sands mining in Utah.  Living Rivers serves as the fiscal sponsor to both Peaceful Uprising and Before It Starts and has been an important part of the climate movement in Utah.  John knows more about the Colorado Plateau than anyone alive, and he is committed to protecting it from climate change, the fossil fuel industry and the Utah Legislature.  Donation is verified by eBay. 

This car has been great to me and is in great shape.  It's a fun car to drive with quick acceleration and responsive handling.  I've done all the scheduled maintenance and oil changes and have never had any problems.  I recently had all the 60,000 mile service done, including all new belts, coolant system flush, transmission flush, fuel system cleaning, new spark plugs and alignment.  The front drop-down bumper has been removed so it now has higher clearance.  There are minor cracks in the paint on the front bumper and a few chips in the paint on the hood.

The car is a hatchback with fold-down seats and surprisingly large cargo space for a small, fuel efficient car.  This car holds dozens of banners and giant puppets like it was built for a protest.  The interior is clean with no damage.  No one has ever smoked in this car.  There have never been any electrical problems, and everything on the vehicle works great.

The vehicle is in Salt Lake City, UT and buyer is responsible for pickup or shipping.

Kia builds one millionth vehicle in the US

Sun, 14 Jul 2013

Kia Motors Manufacturing Georgia, Inc. (KMMG), the plant that produces the Kia Sorento crossover and Optima sedan, celebrated today as a Snow White Pearl 2014 Sorento SXL rolled off the assembly line at the 2,259-acre site, marking the one-millionth Kia to be produced on US soil.
Located in West Point, Georgia, KMMG was Kia Motors America's first manufacturing plant in the US and represented an initial investment of $1 billion. The plant started producing the 2011 Sorento on November 16, 2009 and is responsible for the creation of 11,000 jobs in West Point and the surrounding region. Production of the Optima sedan, Kia's best-selling car in the US for the past 18 months, started at the factory in 2011, and, in 2012, the completion of a $100 million expansion upped annual vehicle production capacity to 360,000.
"Building one million vehicles in less than four years is a tremendous achievement and one that each one of our more than 3,000 team members can take great pride in," said Byung Mo Ahn, Group President and CEO for Kia Motors America and KMMG.

Kia rolls out updated Forte, Forte5 for 2017

Mon, Jan 11 2016

Kia has updated the Forte sedan and Forte5 hatchback for the 2017 model year. Set to debut this week at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show, the revisions revolve principally around updated exterior design and interior equipment. But there are a few mechanical updates as well. We saw most of the stylistic updates when Kia revealed the new K3 back in Korea a month ago. The new Forte (as we know it on this side of the world) is distinguished by a new front bumper design and what Kia calls the "tiger-nose" grille that blends into the new headlights, much like the new Optima. There are new taillights as well, and a revised interior centered around a seven-inch touchscreen display that will soon offer Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. Under the hood, Kia has replaced the 1.8-liter four with a new 2.0, mated to either a six-speed manual or a new six-speed automatic transmission. There are new driver assistance systems as well, and the Korean automaker has added a new mid-level S trim in between the base LX and top EX models, with a sport-tuned suspension, 16-inch alloys, LED daytime running lights, a rear spoiler, and chrome exhaust tip. The revised Forte sedan will be the first new model produced at Kia's new plat in Monterey, Mexico. Pricing will be announced closer to launch in the next couple of months, as will a revised two-door Forte Koup, but Kia has also announced a revised Forte5 for 2017. The hatchback features similar cosmetic updates to the sedan. The 2.0-liter four carries over unchanged, as does the punchier 1.6-liter turbo, which can now be had with a new seven-speed DCT. That engine comes in the sporty SX model, which serves as the top of the three-trim line. Scope out the full details in the pair of press releases below. 2017 Forte overview - Compact Sedan Receives Updated Design, New Powertrain and Advanced Tech, Including Android Auto and Apple Car PlayTM - 2017 Forte adds 2.0-liter engine, plus updated six-speed automatic transmission - Advanced driver assistance features including Autonomous Emergency Braking, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Front Collision Warning, and Dynamic Bending Lights3 are newly available - Sporty S trim pumps up Forte's sport factor with exclusive interior and features Irvine, Calif., Jan. 11, 2015 – The Motor City today got an up close look at the refreshed 2017 Forte when Kia Motors America pulled the silk off the updated compact sedan at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
