#98 of 145 I'm new here! by alp1 Apr 05, 2005 (10:59 am)
... And I must say, don't know alot about cars - so don't get all techie with me! I just thought I'd share a few things about my Rio Cinco and ask for some suggestions at the end. I've had my car for about 2 years now. It has 38,000 miles (I drive 90 miles a day back and forth to school). I absolutely love this car! The only thing that bothers me a little is the paint that peels off of the front grill (it's a silver car). I know that these are from road debris travelling back and forth on the roads that I use. My fiance has suggested just sanding down the front bumper (to make it black) and then just keep it moisturized with Armour All. What do you think? He said that "touch up paint sticks" may not work well adhering to the plastic....   Also, I'm looking to jazz the car up a bit. The only thing at the moment that I can think of is purchasing leatherette seat covers (however, my seats are in *perfect* condition - would this cover wear and tear them?) and some silver pedal covers (whoch both are amazingly priced on Ebay!). I'm not wanting the car to go "all out"... just a few personal touches here and there.... so my questions is, what are some things you would do to this wagon?   The ony real complaint (besides my paint on the front grill), is that somehow during my commutes during the day, the inner portions of my 2 front wheels (they are alloy) have expanded in size. Due to this, I lost a center cap on a trip =( I popped all of the others off so that the car could remain uniform in appearance.   So email me - let me know what you think and what you would do with your Cinco?! Hit me at:   big.sky.mind at gmail.com   Thanks guys and gals! Amy

#102 of 145 I'm in South Dakota... by iluvmysephia1 May 29, 2005 (9:04 am)
and in the town I live in now I've seen one other Sportage, a black one. I have yet to see a Kia Rio Cinco yet. I have seen a Kia Sephia, too, it's similar to the original Kia I bought in May of 1999.
#105 of 145 Sluggish by chuck1959 Aug 24, 2005 (9:26 pm)
Is it just me and the way I drive my 2004 Cinco? Are they all real suggish at first the pick up speed? Sometimes when I start off it moves slowly, then it really picks up. Also would it help if I turned off the O/D or should I kepp it on at all times?
#106 of 145 Door Handle by robspan Sep 12, 2005 (4:54 am)
We've had our Cinco a week, and the inside driver's door handle broke when I tried to open the door. Has anyone else had this problem? Otherwise, we like the car.
