Kia unveils Sexual Chocolate Concept (RWD Sedan)
Ok it's not called sexual chocolate, but they mind and well have called it that. look at this sexy ass mf.
Peter has out done himself with this. I love seeing his tiger nose styling evolving. There's so much I like about this concept. The details are beautiful. We can assume this is on the same platform as the Genesis/ Equus. Kia reveals RWD sport sedan concept for Frankfurt Kia RWD Sedan Concept ![]() ![]()

Thread title confused me a little until I opened it. Thought this was going to be about some kind of Kia/Fiat collaboration and was getting ready for massive disappointment, but luckily it didn't turn out too badly.

Front end is sort of a mashup of Jaguar and Hyundai Veloster. It doesn't seem to really match the clean lines of the rest of the car. However, everything behind the front bumper is gorgeous.

by tiger nose styling, do you mean the style of the front end (since you say nose) of newer modern body cars. like 350z/370z, bmw, gtr, etc. (the hood of this kia reminds me of honda s2000).

Peter Schreyer is a legitimate designer (New Beetle, Audi TT, A3, A6, etc etc) and doesn't have to copy designs. That's why Kia hired him. A lot of car shapes are the same now-a-days. kia is no more guilty of it then any other manufacturer right now.
A type-o. ![]() No, that is what he calls the design language.

I was trying to think of what it looked like in comparison for a while. Def Aston Martin.

Sure I love RWD, but that doesn't mean I love every RWD-based vehicle.
edit: If this car was FWD, it wouldn't even be a thread...

I'm not saying i dont like the thing, i'm just saying its far from an "original" design. Like what's already been said, its a panamera with an aston martin front end. In other words, I've seen this shit before. Why do i need to be hyped about it? Good pricing (of course since its a fucking kia) but i wouldn't buy one anyway so i dont care. Carry on.

You know, the ones that thinks every single car is that same car and get excited at the chance to name the car in attempt to impress but fail miserably? Dumb chick: "Oh wow! Look at that cool Probe! ![]() S13 Owner: "Uh, no. It's a 180sx. Thanks for playing though. ![]() Yea, some cars will look the same but they're all designed differently. Ignore the badge that's on the car and look at it for what it is.

You fail miserably at analogies. We're all car guys here and we know the difference between makes, models, model years, etc. That chick you speak of doesn't know any better. You could slap a fiat badge on a shit pile fiero and she'd believe you..... ![]() Now that we're done comparing apples and fucking walnuts.... Look at Kia's latest releases and show me one car where the design wasn't completely ripped off. Yes, it's commonplace for cars to share similarities and what not, but Kia habitually goes above and beyond just similarities in their car "designs". "Hey guys the car isn't a porsche or aston martin"....no shit sherlock. That's not the point. The point is, or should i say, MY point is the design isn't original at all, BUT its not surprising since Kia does this all the fucking time. IMO it's just not something to get all that hyped over. Is it a cool looking car for cheap though? Of course. Is its design original? Ummm no not really. Some are hyped on it, others including myself are not. Who cares. |
