Its cool that they have thier own site and KIA's are decent cars. We shouldn't act "g o d-like" just because we drive Hondas. However....
One guy, ironhive, claims to have killed the following:
Late model Honda Accord -- no visible mods
Late model Honda Civic -- muffler/air filter
2000 Grand Am GT (auto) -- no visible mods
'96 Mustang (auto) -- no visible mods
2000 Mustang (auto) -- no visible mods
2001 Celica GT -- no mods, uphill!!
Here's the specs on his 2000 Sephia LS.
Acceleration (0-60 mph): 9.8 sec.

Base Engine Size: 1.8 liters

Now this is of course an "un-modded" KIA. Lets ignore the Hondas for the sake of an unbiased opinion.
