Now High School girls can look cool!

 

Thats pure genius on their part. Theyll probably sell like hotcakes.

 

"On the STi the scoop forces air into the intercooler to feed the turbo, but the Rio's scoop is just there to look cool."

I didnt know the scoop forced air into the intercooler....




"By comparison, the $55,130 four-wheel-drive turbo WRX STi that it mimics has 195kW and can dash from 0-100km/h in 5.5 seconds."

55K? This is a sti not a porsche c4s...

 

I think the scoop feeds air up the writers ****

 

so bitter

 

dude, i gotta get that thing for my little sister, hahah

 

That $55K figure is probably another country's currency.

Makes sense, americans dont measure power in kW. But that still doesnt justify a stupid statement like a hood scoop that forces air into the turbo.

If you're going to write about cars, you'd think the author would have a basic understanding of how cars work. Especially if you are trying to argue a point...

 

lol no don't you see how the writer is totally Dissing KIA?

"The Rio also has what is described as "a World Rally Championship-style rear wing", even though Kia does not have much of a rally heritage, or even a car in the WRC. "

So funny, the writer must hate this car more than we do!

 

I think I'm gonna be sick....





btw- The Herald Sun is "Australia's biggest-selling daily newspaper" and $14,990 AUD converts to roughly $9500 US Dollars.





I think I'm gonna be sick again...
