#242 of 605 backy... by iluvmysephia1 Nov 26, 2005 (10:01 pm)
that's interesting about the Car and Driver review of the '06 Kia Rio sedan and '06 Kia Rio5. Pretty complimentary it sounds like. A muscular exterior...that sounds like a decent description of the '06 Rio's body style. The interior is tasteful and the engine pulls eagerly to redline.   Sounds like they liked the new Rio! I'm gonna have to get the December Car and Driver and read the review. Replies to this message: backy (Nov 27, 2005 1:47 pm) spectraman (Nov 28, 2005 6:36 am)

Replying to: iluvmysephia1 (Nov 26, 2005 10:01 pm) It's a really short review, a first-take really--save your money and take a quick look at the library. Maybe they'll do a full test sometime. Replies to this message: spectraman (Nov 28, 2005 6:36 am)
#244 of 605 Just got my library card by iluvmysephia1 Nov 27, 2005 (8:38 pm)
at the city library at Pocatello. Now that you've mentioned that I'll probably just check it out at the library.   This new '06 Rio looks good in both the sedan and hatchback form, with each one having it's own merits. I don't think I could go wrong with either one, though it has to be a manual tranny.   I really like the standard safety equipment built into each and every '06 Rio and '06 Rio5.
#245 of 605 Apparently the information we tossed around by iluvmysephia1 Nov 27, 2005 (9:58 pm)
on this thread for a couple days was not true. The '06 Kia Rio sedan and Rio5 hatchback will get speed-sensing hydraulic power-assist rack and pinion steering.   I did a little research because I was interested and found out the truth. Very nice, though, and I think it will prove to give the Rio/Rio5 a responsive and sporty feel around turns. Replies to this message: backy (Nov 28, 2005 5:52 am)
