The only reason why u seeing more kia on the roads is because they are cheap. Try pricing forte on par with japs and kia stand no chance.

Just take a look at the elantra which is more or less jap pricing, until now u hardly see them on the road.

Besides, the only kia that u are seeing more on the road nowadays is forte only. Up until now , seeing a k5 is as rare as seeing a ferrari.

If u go to 2nd hand car dealer, he will give u a much higher value for ur toyota compared to ur kia. Why? Simple, ppl are more willing to buy 2nd hand toyotas compared to kia. Just look around and see how often u see ppl asking about 2nd hand korean cars then u will know the answer.

Get the new camry, saw it on the road and it looks awesome. The passat is a good car but in terms of uncle-ness, its worst than the camry and it has a very boring design.

I guess japs always design cars for the future. Meaning 5 years down the road they still look fresh!

Unlike their korean counterparts, they design cars for that year only. 1 year dwn the road, the car looks damn outdated.
