#61 of 695 I think by jchan2 Jun 07, 2004 (12:03 pm)
the base price will be like $19,999 to add options like Air Conditioning and a CD Player to the standard equipment list.
#62 of 695 Then it's no longer a "base" price, eh? by iluvmysephia1 Jun 15, 2004 (8:32 pm)
Kia would need to keep it lower to truly call it a "base" price, know what I mean? The buyer is still getting a good deal by getting an '05 Kia Sportage for $18,295. Even without A/C. They just are. Add A/C to the base model(as an option) and the price will be around $19,295, before T&L is added in. This new-world-order 2005 Kia Sportage is the front-runner for my next new car at this point. The '01 Sportage now has 73,455 miles(and is running on it's original factory Hankook's and has not blown a single light bulb of any kind yet!). Kia rocks the house nicely. If I pop in The Drive-By Trucker's 2003 CD entitled 'Decoration Day' my '01 Sportage gets to rockin' all the more so. Anybody like Skynyrd or The Outlaws or Nirvana or Molly Hatchet out there? Check out a band from Muscle Shoals, Alabama, called The Drive-By Truckers. Better yet see them live. Be prepared to get rocked mightily.

In todays world, people are demanding that basic items like Air Conditioning and a CD Player come with their cars. See how many Honda Civic DX models Honda sells? The ones with no air conditioning or a CD Player. Same thing with the Accord DX. They must sell one of those for every 50 Accord EX sedans they sell.
#64 of 695 You'll never see me type in here the 2005 Kia Sportage, by iluvmysephia1 Jun 20, 2004 (7:40 pm)
which may or may not be called Sportage, again. Know why? I just got back here from the Kia Global website where I learned that Kia is indeed going to name the new compact SUV they are releasing in the fall of 2004 Sportage. They came to that conclusion after recalling the success of the predecessor, with it's good cutting-edge looks and functional design. Cool, huh? The new Sportsman will come in either a 2.0L inline 4 cylinder engine or a 2.7L V6 engine and will include an option for AWD. It will be of unibody build and offer passenger car ride and quiet highway interior cruising noise, yet it will still offer that "sitting up higher feel and effect" that the earlier Sportage offers. Very, very appealing, Kia. Yes, you are the best. The 2005 Kia Sportage will affirm that statement, I can just tell. Replies to this message: jchan2 (Jun 21, 2004 2:22 pm)

Replying to: iluvmysephia1 (Jun 20, 2004 7:40 pm) so just to clarify something, will the 05 Kia SUV be named the Kia Sportage or the Kia Sportsman?
#66 of 695 jchan2-the all-new 2005 Kia compact SUV by iluvmysephia1 Jun 22, 2004 (7:15 pm)
will be called Sportage! Not Sportsman, like I always refer to my 2001 Kia Sportage 4x4 SUV as. I can't wait to see this new Sportage and read all about it, and, yes, test drive it!
#67 of 695 iluvmysephia1 by jchan2 Jun 23, 2004 (5:49 am)
I get it now. Thanks for clarifying that issue.
#68 of 695 no problemo, jchan2....................... by iluvmysephia1 Jun 23, 2004 (6:38 pm)
are you also interested in the 2005 Kia Sportage? Or just mildly curious?
#69 of 695 unveiling in September at the Paris Auto Show by xgbt Jul 18, 2004 (2:22 am)
I recently wrote to Kia Canada and got their confirmation that 'the (new) Sportage will be unveiling in September at the Paris Auto Show we are expecting to have them on sale by year end'. =)
#70 of 695 If they're just being unveiled in September at the by iluvmysephia1 Jul 18, 2004 (5:53 pm)
Paris Auto Show then they're probably not going to be out in the U.S.much before year's end, either. Seems to me they were going to be out a little earlier. Looking forward to the event whenever it eventually occurs. Thanks for the update!
