Cool Munky's 2011 Kia K5 (Optima SX)

For those of you that don't know, I traded in the Hyundai last weekend for a new Kia Optima SX.

2.0L, 274HP Turbo, Automatic 6 with "a flappy paddle gearbox" - 0-60 in 6.3

Panoramic Sunroof, Leather (heated/cooled), LED Tails, 18" Alloys, HIDs, Fogs, C/F trim pieces inside, Homelink Mirror, Satellite radio, power memory seats, intelligent key system with a push button start...I'm sure there's more.

These really are very nice. I get to drive them so often, but would love to have one.

Look into springs. These will look awesome dropped a bit with some wider wheels.
