I WISH it was sold as the Toyota GT86 like Europe, Australia, and Japan... the Scion badge certainly carries the "youth" baggage. I am 40. I don't buy into the "image"... I buy into the handling and quality!

What Our Members Are Saying about the Brand Reputation of the Kia Forte
Kia is considered a cheap and crappy brand. Lots of people say they are improving but that is also saying it to someone who just bough a Kia or owns one.
