The Hero We Need: 1997 Kia Sportage

We all love a good surprise because surprise is a fantastic emotion...that's why surprise parties are more popular than anxiety parties.  Imagine my surprise when I'd discovered that somebody made a Kia Sportage into something cool...awesome...and just a bit exciting.  ANXIETY...I mean SURPRISE!!  Find this 1997 Kia Sportage 4X4 offered for $4000 in Petaluma, CA via craigslist.

All Souls' Day: 2012 Kia Soul Kinetic Edition 6-speed

Yesterday was November 1st, known in the Latin Catholic Church as All Saints' Day and is a yearly celebration of Saints, and I missed the opportunity to post nothing but Volvo 1800s as driven by Mr Roger Moore in The Saint.  However, today I will not miss the opportunity to take advantage of the lesser known (but equally important) All Souls' Day and post nothing but spiffy examples of the Kia Soul.  Starting with this 2012 Kia Soul Kinetic Edition located here on eBay offered for $6,525 buy-it-now located in Fort Myers, FL.

15k: Almost A Lotus: 1997 Kia Elan M100

 The Lotus Elan M100 was a wedge shaped convertible penned by Peter Stevens (Jaguar XJR-15, McLaren F1, Lotus Esprit, MG ZR, ZS, ZT & TF) and built in the UK from 1989 through 1995...and later produced by Kia in South Korea under the name Kia Elan (and Kia Vigato).  The Elan used a lightweight chassis and a name borrowed from the historical Lotus archives...but it was powered by an Isuzu (and later Kia) 4-banger mated to the front wheels.  Find this 1997 Lotus Kia Elan M100 offered for $17,900 CAD ($14,061 USD at time of printing) in Walkerton, ON, Canada via kijiji.ca.  Tip from Gianni.

DTO: Charity Auction: 2014 Kia Sorento EX; Justice League Graphics

Daily Turismo Omologato is a series where we feature unique cars that are well above the normal DT priceline, but are unique, interesting, zany enough that we can pass them up...think of it like DT Private Reserve Mountain Dew Code Red.  The Kia Sorento is a car based SUV/crossover family hauler built in West Point Georgia with seating for 7.  This 2014 Kia Sorento EX is decorated in a Justice League (Batman, Superman, Wonderwoman and some other tights wearing dudes) graphics sceme by DC Entertainment and is being auction on ebay with all proceeds going to charities, current bidding for $38,000 with a few hours to go.
