2011 Kia Sportage Ex Sport Utility 4-door 2.4l on 2040-cars

US $18,499.00
Year:2011 Mileage:43627
Location:

 This vehicle was purchased new on 4/16/2011 from Kia of Gastonia. The MSRP was $28,490 and after the dealer add-ons the total asking price was $31,178.93. This vehicle is loaded. It has both optional packages offered. The $1500.00 Navigation w/Premium Audio package and the $3000.00 Premium Package w/Leather. These packages add navigation, Sirius radio w/traffic, Reverse camera display, leather seats, heated and cooled seats, push button start w/smart key, homelink, cargo cover, pano roof, back up sensors, heated mirrors. On top of this the dealer added interior protection package, nitrogen filled tires, mud guards, cargo tray, and window tint. They also added a pinstripe but we had it removed at the dealer because my wife hates them. Also at the dealer, we had the bright chromey EX rims switched out to the LX rims because of personal preference. Also has subwoofer and proximity entry.

Reason for selling is we just purchased a brand new Expedition El and do not need two SUVs so my wife will be buying a small sedan. This vehicle gets great gas mileage, 22/31, and is in great condition inside and out. It was involved in a rear end collision in Feb. of 2012 and was repaired back to new by one of, if not the best, body shops in Charlotte, Body Works Plus LLC. This happened with 15699 miles on the vehicle so we have driven this vehicle almost 28000 trouble free miles since this repair. We have all paperwork for this repair and also all maintenance paperwork. All oil changes and work have been done by Auto Tune Total Car Care and receipts will go with vehicle. Also, all manuals, paperwork, and window sticker will be included. Both keys are included.

Kelly Blue Book value on this vehicle is $20,188 but I realize that with an accident on the vehicle the value must be adjusted to compensate for future resale value so we will sale for a $1,689 discount at $18,499 or best offer. We feel this is very fair for all involved since the vehicle has not had one problem ever and especially in the 28000 miles since the repair. Also used to reach this value was the fact that local dealer Ben Mynatt Buick GMC has a same year/miles/equipment vehicle listed on Autotrader for $20,994. Plus with buying from a private seller there is NO doc fee.

The vehicle is still under factory warranty until 4/16/2016 or 60,000 miles!

Always garaged.

This vehicle is financed through Kia so there will be a payoff procedure with title exchange. This however is simple. We just sold my F150 which was financed through Ford and it went smooth and the buyer was happier to save thousands than worrying about waiting on a title.

Bank of America is offering super APR rate through the end of Feb, as low as 2.49 for up to 72 months. $18,499 using these numbers is only $275 a month! This was only put in for informational purposes. I am NOT a dealer and do NOT offer financing or shipping. Payment can be cash or we can meet at a bank where funds will have to be confirmed before vehicle is turned over, a bill of sale can be signed/notarized, and all disclosures can be provided.

Please ask any questions or contact me to set up a time to look at this vehicle. It is in really great condition and someone is going to get a great deal. Thanks, Tim.

Superman joining Kia's Justice League-themed fleet of vehicles

Tue, 29 Jan 2013

Kia is teaming up with the Justice League once again to create another show car that will be on display at the Chicago Auto Show. At the 2012 SEMA Show, Kia showed off various models inspired by DC Entertainment characters Batman, Aquaman, Flash, Green Lantern and Cyborg, but a Superman-themed Kia Optima Hybrid will roll into the Windy City for next week's show.
In the above drawing, we only get to see a small portion of this car inspired by the Man of Steel, but it will have the requisite red-and-blue paint scheme with Superman's shield on the hood (subtle, it is not).
The previous cars include the Batman Optima, Aquaman Rio, Flash Forte Koup, Green Lantern Soul and Cyborg Forte. All six cars were created to raise awareness for the "We Can Be Heroes" campaign, which helps families in eastern Africa affected by drought and famine.

South Korea island of Jeju becoming an EV-incentive heaven

Tue, Apr 1 2014

When it comes to providing some island EV love, we can point to Hawaii, which has been pushing hard for greater electric-vehicle adoption through subsidies and a broader charging network. Now, South Korea has Jeju. We're not sure if the surf is as good. Like Hawaii, Jeju is focusing on a "carbon-free" existence and lowered fossil-fuel dependency as a way to help the environment while addressing the extra expenses involved in providing fuel locally, Wards Auto says. Jeju, which is about 720 square miles, provides about $7,000 worth of EV incentives on top of those provided by the South Korean government. As a result, the cost of buying an EV can be cut in half. In the case of a Chevrolet Spark EV, going electric actually has a lower out-of-pocket price tag than buying a gas-powered counterpart on the island. South Korea's Ministry of Environment has earmarked about $14,000 in subsidies for each EV purchase, while 10 South Korean cities are adding on incentives anywhere from about $2,800 to $7,400 per vehicle. South Korean automaker Hyundai and affiliate Kia are just starting to do their part to boost the country's EV sales, which didn't even break the 800-unit mark last year. Kia recently said it will start making its 2015 model-year Soul EV in April, with sales debuting in South Korea by the end of the year. Hyundai is said to start selling its own EV starting in 2016.

Recharge Wrap-up: Kia Soul EV wins MotorWeek award, Virgin Hotels offering Tesla Model S rides

The Kia Soul EV has been awarded a MotorWeek's Drivers' Choice Award.

"It has more power and range compared to other affordable all-electric vehicles. Plus, its funky style makes driving the Kia Soul EV really cool."

Virgin Hotels will provide its Chicago guests car services in the Tesla Model S. Guests can get rides to and from the hotel in a red, dual-motor Model S P85D. Virgin Hotels offers the EV services as part of its sustainability program. "Tesla is the hottest electric car on the road right now, and we're elated to provide our hotel guests with this chic house-car service while also helping to reduce our carbon footprint," says Virgin Hotels vice president of sales and marketing Doug Carrillo. "For Virgin Hotels it's important to provide services our guests desire but do so with the environment in mind whenever possible." Hyundai has announced the first lease of its Tucson Fuel Cell in Canada. Hyundai chose the Vancouver couple, Jennifer Ma and Clayton Crawley, as the first buyers in part because they live near both a dealership and a fueling station, the latter of which sources its hydrogen from a chemical company that produces the gas as a byproduct. Crawley, whose children love the beach, says, "Getting there while reducing our environmental impact will be awesome." Read more at Automotive News. The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) is providing $30 million in grant money for Proterra electric buses. Six transit agencies will buy 28 of the EV buses for a variety of projects. Proterra CEO Ryan Popple calls the funding a "tremendous validation for the company." In total, the FTA is handing out $55 million in grant money for the deployment of American-made electric buses. Four other agencies will receive buses from BAE Systems and New Flyer as part of the program. Read more at Charged EVs.
