Up for auction here is without a doubt one of THE MOST Beautiful Looking ,Driving ,Handling and Performing Crossovers in Modern times !....I personally bought this 2011 KIA Sportage EX right off the showroom floor in July of 2011 and it absolutely still looks EXACTLY like it did that same day I bought it ..It has (Like ALL of my vehicles has been professionally serviced and maintained every 3500 miles )  Never ever been smoked in ,and when it was ready for its first oil change I immediately installed "Royal Purple Full Synthetic oil " in the engine and have done ever since .I also installed a Super Air Flow Breather system on the 2.4 Litre engine which automatically gained me EXACTLY 2.9 more MPG of fuel !..which now puts it up to right around 31 MPG on the Free way.It just earlier this week turned over to 25000 miles on the clock !   To save a whole lot of writing ...THE BEST WAY to explain ALL of the the options on this KIA Sportage EX is that it has Absolutely every single possible option Available from the factory ...Except it does not have a Turbo or all wheel drive ,which being the "CAR GUY" that I am I did not think it was necessary to have those two additional extras when you really would of not of benefited all of that much from them . It has ALWAYS been garaged never driven in the snow,..(because I have a 4 Wheel drive Pickup for that job)..it also has that awesome FULLY Tinted Panoramic Roof on it with the front is full power ,all gray leather interior ,heated and cooled front seats (Cooled on drivers only ) Incredible sounding 6 Speaker Stereo System, a Lot of controls or worked by being mounted on the Steering wheel ..Now the main reason for me selling is I always have liked Mini Coopers and when they came out with the new 4 Door Country Man hatch back ,,well I just had to have it .Whats really cool is I am currently totally restoring the Grandfather to the late model Cooper ,I m putting the finishing touch's to a 1959 Morris Minor 1000 2 Door which has a real heavy resemblance to the New Mini Cooper,So I thought would be very neat to have New & old Coopers .
But back to the Sportage ,this crossover will make anyone a Super Great running,plenty of room , Very Economical vehicle . 


 Good Luck To ALL on Bidding and Thank You .................................

Kia launching Uvo 2.0 in 2014 Sorento

Sat, 01 Dec 2012

Along with all the new model introductions hitting the stages of the LA Auto Show, automakers made plenty of announcements in regards to technology heading into the show. Chevrolet's MyLink will be adding Siri and Ford is reportedly preparing some more updates for its MyFord Touch and My Lincoln Touch, but now Kia has announced that it will be releasing the next version of its Uvo infotainment system in the 2014 Kia Sorento and later in other Kia models including the redesigned 2014 Forte.
Uvo is Kia's hands-free infotainment system, and now it will be adding a telematics "eServices" system including vehicle diagnostics, a parking location reminder for drivers and 911 Connect. Officially called Uvo eServices Infotainment System with Voice Command Navigation, this is essentially the "version 2.0" for Uvo, which came with voice recognition and hands-free control of mobile phones when it was introduced in 2010.
When the 2014 Sorento goes on sale, the new Uvo will only be compatible with iPhones, but Android phones are expected to work by the second quarter. Scroll down for Kia's press release on the updated Uvo system.

Good Samaritans rescue driver from sinking car in Florida

Thu, Feb 4 2016

A pair of good Samaritans and three police detectives saved an elderly Florida man from drowning in his car after it crashed into a pond this week. According to Port Saint Lucie police, Hixford Banton was traveling westbound along Port Saint Lucie Boulevard in Port Saint Lucie when his Mercedes sedan was struck by another motorist attempting a turn on to the street from Arioso Boulevard. The collision caused Banton to lose control of his Mercedes. In his confusion, he ran off the road, drove across a lawn, and crashed into a pond in front of the town's City Hall. James "Randy" Brazier was across the street when he heard tires screeching, and turned to see Banton's Mercedes go into the pond. He rushed across the busy street, jumped into the pond, and swam to the rapidly sinking Mercedes to save the driver. Once Brazier reached the car and opened the door, it immediately capsized and sank to the bottom of the pond. "When I got to the guy, he was real scared, so I told him to calm down, " Brazier told the TCPalm newspaper. "I opened the door and got him out, he panicked, took us both under and then I hit the bottom, pushed ourselves back up." Brazier was assisted by another passerby named Charles Proulx, who waded into the pond to help the struggling men. Three Port Saint Lucie police detectives–Stephen Reuther, Peter Chunn, and Maiga Auguste–arrived soon after with a rescue ring and helped to pull the men out of the pond. Once everyone was ashore, salvage divers were brought in to locate the car and pull it out of the pond. Thanks to the murky water and the pond's surprising depth, roughly fifteen feet, it took divers nearly thirty minutes to locate the car. Later, at the police station, Banton said that he had yet to meet his rescuer. "Somebody I have yet to meet came in and helped me. He came to me and he said, 'I got you, I got you, are you ready?'" Banton said. "And he opened the door, and I just went out." Banton also stated that he could not swim, and that he would have died had Brazier not come to his aid. Soon after, the two were reintroduced under less stressful circumstances. News Source: TCPalm, Palm Beach Post, WPBF Government/Legal Weird Car News Kia Driving Safety Autoblog Minute accident

2016 Kia Optima SX Limited Quick Spin

Thu, Jan 14 2016

There are some questions that aren't easily answered. Is it possible to only eat one Pringle potato chip? Who decided the band Creed was a good idea? And why the heck isn't the Kia Optima more popular? That last one that floated through our heads as we tested the refreshed 2016 Optima. Kia sold just under 160,000 Optimas in 2015, while Ford sold 300,000 Fusions, Honda shipped 355,000 Accords, and Toyota moved 429,000 Camrys. The Optima's low numbers didn't make sense then, and they certainly won't make sense when sales figures for the refreshed 2016 model roll in. For the third-generation Optima, Kia applied its trademark exterior design to a segment-leading interior and one of the most comfortable driving experiences in the segment. The result is a damn fine family sedan that really ought to help Kia find its way into a lot more driveways. Driving Notes We can debate the value of top-trim family sedans until we're blue in the face, but in the case of the Optima, you want the SX Limited that we tested. It's one of the only ways to score Hyundai/Kia's stout 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine (the other is the $30,515 SX). At 245 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque, it's down on output for model year 2016 – the 2015 model had an extra 27 hp and 9 lb-ft of torque – but gains two miles per gallon in the city and one on the highway, for a total of 22 and 32 mpg, respectively. Should we lament the loss of power? That's what we did when Kia first showed the 2016 Optima at the 2015 New York Auto Show. On the road, though, it's tough to pick out the drop in output. Nine pound-feet is negligible, and unless you're regularly playing in the high part of the rev range, you won't miss the extra power. The Optima pulls hard from a standstill, developing peak torque between 1,350 and 4,000 rpm. It'll get to 60 in what we guesstimate is the high six-second range. Yes, that is slower than both the six-cylinder Toyota Camry and Honda Accord, two sedans that are also lighter than the 3,600-pound Kia. Let's remember that these are family sedans, though, and the broad torque peak (and improved fuel economy) will be more important to your average consumer than the stopwatch figures. The Optima is more fuel efficient than the Japanese V6-powered competitors. Barely. And only in the city. That means the 2.0-liter's fuel economy has improved incrementally, not massively.
