Don’t know why nyspeed acts like it’s some sort of elite community compared to 716racing or 716misfits or any other group that is created out of the enjoyment of cars.

Based on nothing more than the type and quality of cars it is however that is directly related to average age and income level at this point.

I will also add if you look back at NYSpeed/UBRF there was always bashing of the ricer groups…UBRF/NYSpeed historically had a large group of imports however the active ones were always tastefully modded and into performance vs being a traditional “ricer” which is you see a large amount of on misfits.

Everyone appreciates “car people” but the bashing of ricers has been around here since day 1

I don’t even think anyone is bashing their cars. I think most of us can’t get past their writing skills.

There are several people here who have less desirable vehicles, however they’re passionate about them and can at least communicate their ideas to the community in a way that elicits respected.

Now I’m not a fan of the rims on that kia… but not sure why people would be against Kia’s. I know someone pushing about 400hp out of a Optima turbo. The quality of the car has definitely come a long way compared to 2005 or so. And the styling on the car for what you pay is imo better than most Chevy’s. (Chevy has turned up its game this past set of redesigned cars)

I believe stock, the 2.0l turbo optima produces around 274hp and 269lb-ft torque. May not handle as good as some, but still putting down decent numbers from the factory now.

I’d have to agree. While most manufacturers seem to be getting worse, Kia keeps getting better.

Where are they now, 26 million or so recalls this year. Is that a record?

GM is a shady company since it took them over 10 years to put recalls out on cars and only after being forced to and being watched over by agencies. Sad it took that long for a company to back their product. Funny how many other recalls came out years later once someone has a look over all their data.

Yams each company has good and bad years. Info is available if you ever want to make fact based statements. Yes GM will likely have the highest recall % for 2014 by a longshot and yes 2014 is a new record for GM for amount recalled.

GM had a lower recall % for 5 years running compared to Toyota. 09-13

I think your mindset dictates your statement more than facts ever will. It is so annoying.
