IMO it's not specifically about Kia. They definitely make some fine cars now. It's just a matter of principle. Kia is still a mainstream automaker. But that's just me, I don't believe in paying an ADM for any car. I could only see the justification for some special edition 911 GT3 variant as those cars may actually appreciate in value over time.

Paying ADM for a Kia? Just making the depreciation hit even worse.
