Kia Soul [MERGED THREADS]

[nurse_corrupted]

The price of having a soul.

[AG4]

If you want real madness then buy a Toyota Prius at 2.250M,Mitsubishi Lancer EX GT-A at 1.375M or a L300 Versa Van at 915K!! Or worse the Dodge Caliber!!

Yes, those are overpriced, specially the Prius, but why follow the bad examples?
Is it really that expensive to import cars from Korea nowadays?
They used to be more affordable than CBU from Japan cars, that was their big advantage.

This is the interesting thing, at P1.358M, the CBU from Japan AWD Subaru Forester 2.0X is only P38K more expensive...

...than the P1.32M FWD tall-hatchback Kia Soul 2.0 EX A/T.


A larger AWD CBU from Japan compact SUV for only P38K more sounds interesting.

1.320M for the EX?! What the!!! Di naman yan SUV no!

CAC are pretty much overpricing their vehicles. Di na ako magtataka kung yung Picanto nila in a few months time ay between 800k-900k na at yung Rio ay 900k-1M na yung price.

Di naman interesting yang Forester 2 liter AWD na sobrang hina at lame(Subaru's that make sense are only the Impreza WRX,WRX STI and Forester 2.5 XT).. Di porket Subaru ok na and this one isn't great at all kahit CBU pa yan.. Eh di mag Nissan X-Trail or Mitsubishi Outlander nalang ako!!

Most likely they'll bring here the 1.6 liter variants(LX and EX) of the Kia Soul..Ok yung LX M/T lang na mas mura kahit papaano..

[Stoner]

Chill.

Still, I just hope that this is the beginning and the auto companies will start bringing their box-shaped cars into the Phils.

Sorry but have to disagree you because I think the Subaru Forester 2 liter is actually one of the best SUV's for its price point. While Mitsubishi Outlander price may seem attractive due to its big capacity, I find it more like a utility car instead which is more suitable for out of town use.

Kia Soul has potential to be an excellent city car (like the Carens before). But at 1.2 to 1.3M, I guess there are better choices elsewhere as its novelty will probably wear off sooner than later.

i agree.

shelling out 1.2 to 1.3M from my hard-earned-money will make me look elsewhere. i do not buy a vehicle for novelty reasons...

Outrageous price for an SUV pretender.. meron pa rin bibili nyan pero ilan ilan lang for sure..

I still disagree... Its not worth it,its slow and looks dull(its all wheel drive doesn't really make it sporty,novelty nalang yan ika nga),unless gusto mo nito para lang masabing may Subaru ka(mayroon ka na nito diba?)..Mas mura parin ang X-Trail 250X at 1.2M Pesos.


May bibili parin ng Kia Soul for sure at that price range and most likely the 2 liter LX M/T will be the best selling variant..Its a novelty car for sure..
