Green Lantern Kia Soul
Kias SEMA show stand will be full of superheroes this year. After showing off a teaser of The Flash-themed Forte, and unleashing the Batman Optima on New York, Kia is now teasing a Green Lantern-themed Soul thatll make its public debut at the SEMA show next week. Although Kia is mum on details on the Green Lantern-themed Soul, the front-quarter panel teaser gives us a glimpse of the Soul wearing the Green Lanterns signature shades of black and green. The custom Soul will also get a custom front bumper with a carbon fiber diffuser. The Green Lantern Soul also gets blacked-out headlights with green projector bulbs, and deep dish wheels sporting the Green Lanterns logo. The Green Lantern Kia Soul is the latest collaboration between DC Entertainment and the Korean automaker. In addition to the Green Lantern Soul, The Flash Forte, and the Batman Optima, Kia will also be showing off Aquaman- and Cyborg-themed concepts at next weeks SEMA show. The Green Lantern Kia Soul is shown in the gallery below along with the Flash Forte teaser, Batman Optima images, and stock 2013 Kia Souls.

Braodway Kia - (4) Star Review on Yelp
- Had a very positive experience at Broadway Kia. A salesman asked what kind of car we were interested in and then asked if we would like to test drive any. We explained that we were not too interested in crazy bells and whistles. After inquiring about price, and getting that information we chose 2 cars to test drive. One we drove on a city street loop, and the other we went on a freeway loop.As it was cold out, the salesman sat with us in the car, with the heater on, and explained how everything worked, if we had any questions, if we were ready or not to purchase at this time.We choose one of the cars we test drove. April helped us with the paperwork which took 20 minutes only, AND synced our phones to the car's system, so our calls come through the car speakers.Great experience, all in all. -Susan Z.

2013 Kia Forte Koup Inspired by The Flash Set for 2012 SEMA Show
Just the Facts:
Kia will unveil four of its new Justice League-inspired custom rides at the upcoming 2012 SEMA Show.
One of the cars is a 2013 Kia Forte Koup that honors The Flash, the superhero said to be the fastest man alive.
The three other Kias get their inspiration from Aquaman, Cyborg and Green Lantern. Kia Motors America is set to unveil four more of its new Justice League-inspired custom rides at the upcoming 2012 SEMA Show, including a 2013 Kia Forte Koup that honors The Flash. Kia already unveiled its first superhero ride, a 2013 Optima SX Limited inspired by Batman. The Flash superhero is said to be the "fastest man alive." Aquaman, The Flash, Cyborg and Green Lantern will be the inspiration for this set of four customized vehicles that are being built thanks to Kia's partnership with DC Entertainment. To hype up the unveiling, the automaker has released a teaser image of the custom 2013 Kia Forte Koup. All that is visible is the front of the car, which features a translucent Flash logo on the hood and custom paint job. Presumably the special Kia gets a lot of power in honor of its namesake. The car was put together with West Coast Customs and makes its public debut at the Kia booth on October 30. A total of eight superhero Kias will be built as part of the automaker's 10-month membership with DC Entertainment. The cars raise awareness for the "We Can Be Heroes" famine relief campaign, and will eventually be auctioned off to benefit the charity. The 2012 SEMA Show runs from October 30 to November 2 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Edmunds says: We will soon see if The Flash is better inspiration for a custom ride than Batman.

Samantha, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you soon!
Broadway Kia - (5) Star Review on Yelp
- I bought a 2011 Kia Soul from Erica Hood today, when I really only meant to be having the HV Water Pump on my 2007 Prius replaced. I've paid cash for cars and spent longer in the dealership than I did today; Erica understood that my baby was waiting at home and I didn't have time to goof around. We got the financing to where I needed it to be in spite of some serious challenges, and I drove off the lot with a car that my carseat actually fits in safely. These are all pretty great reasons to talk to Erica @ Broadway Kia, but I think the biggest one is her attitude. I'd like to think I'm a good judge of character - I've been fooled before, but given my job my BS detector is pretty solid - and she is sweet and genuine in a way that me feel comfortable in my impulsive purchase decision. Oh, and my husband is pretty happy with the car too. :) -Samantha B.

Don’t you want to keep your car running smoothly as long as possible? Well here is a Monday maintenance tip to help extend the life of your car.
- Lug nuts, if not lubricated occasionally, can seize or “freeze” to the studs due to corrosion. Repairing them can be expensive. Having to call a tow truck for a flat you can’t remove is even more expensive. The next time you change or rotate your tires, pick up some anti-seize lubricant at your local auto supply store. Clean the stud threads with a wire brush and wipe them with the lubricant. It’s formulated to prevent the lug nuts (spark plugs, too) from seizing and won’t allow them to loosen as you drive, the way other lubricants might. If a lug nut does freeze to a stud, try spraying the nut and stud with WD-40 or Liquid Wrench. Allow it to penetrate for 10 or 20 minutes. Use a heat gun to apply heat. Then use a ratchet wrench to remove the lug.
A huge thank you to the author of this tremendous review! Great job Will!
- Will Watchman was a wonderful salesman. He was very helpful and sensitive to my disabled sister's needs. He explained the features of each car thoroughly. He stayed late after the dealership closed to finish the deal, and came back on his day off to finish orienting me to the features of my car. I highly recommend him. -jdforeman
Many thanks to Kyle for this amazing review! Keep up the great work team!
Broadway Kia - (5) Star Review on Yelp
- I bought my 2012 Kia Optima from them last January. I had to be persistent, but they were willing to track down the exact vehicle I wanted and do a same day dealer trade. They got me into the car I wanted and took care of the financing in a jiffy too. I told them I didn't want to do any of the finance haggling, such as the GAP insurance, extended service contract, etc. They said it was fine and we skipped all of that. I was getting bored with going through the owner's manual and am quite familiar with cars, so my salesperson let me skip the 'required' manual review too. What's important is that's what I wanted and I'm glad I was heard. They sent me a discount in the mail on accessories, which I purchased and have thoroughly enjoyed. I had an overall great experience there and I would definitely go back. -Kyle J.

Unique New Cars That Stand Out From the Crowd
Several years ago, car shoppers primarily concentrated their purchases on typical sedans, minivans and SUVs, as well as the occasional sports car. But in the last few years, a growing number of buyers are choosing niche cars not easily defined in any one traditional automotive segment. We've listed some of the top unique new cars that fill a special niche on the market for buyers looking to stand out from the crowd.
Kia Soul
Why buy a traditional compact sedan when you can have a Kia Soul? While its tall roof and hatchback bodystyle aren't for all buyers, those who choose a Soul over a more conventional compact will get a practical new car with standout styling. They can also take advantage of terrific fuel economy figures, which run as high as 27 mpg in the city and 35 mpg in highway driving. Given its individual appearance--and a base price of less than $15,000, including destination--it's no surprise that more buyers consistently choose the Soul over its ordinary Forte sedan stablemate.What it means to you: With our list, shoppers looking for unique new cars can break free of the traditional molds of automotive segments.

Many thanks to Catherine for this tremendous review! Way to go April!
- April was great to work with! She was very thorough in going over everything about the Kia Soul with us. She didn't just tell us about it, but also walked through and showed us everything. She even showed us the service department and introduced us to the service manager. I felt much more informed about the vehicle and connected with the dealership than I have with previous purchases elsewhere. I would definitely recommend going to her to any of my friends. She was also very friendly and very understanding with our overactive 2 year old! We had some complications on our own end with the purchase which put us at the dealership for almost three hours and past nap time; April handled it all so well and I was glad that time was spent with her--she really was great!! -Catherine B.

Happy Monday fans! Here is a Monday maintenance tip to help keep your car running as long as possible!
- Most states require tires to be replaced when they have worn down to 1/16-inch (1.5 mm) of remaining tire depth. Tires sold in North America are required to have “wear bars” molded into them to make it easy to see when tire replacement is legally required. However, if you’ll be driving in the rain, you should change your tires when there is 1/8-inch (3 mm) of tread left. Otherwise, water may not escape from under your tires fast enough and you risk hydroplaning — a dangerous situation in which your car loses traction and literally floats on the water. Stick an American quarter between the treads in several places. If part of Washington’s head is always covered, you have enough tread to drive in the rain. If you drive in snow, you’ll need at least 3/16-inch (5 mm) of tread to get adequate traction. Stick an American penny between the treads. If the top of the Lincoln Memorial is always covered, you’re ready for winter driving.
