It took them over half a year to make it available here?
I recall the Soul 1.6 was launched here March this year.
During that time if a buyer made a fixed deposit of P200K he/she could get the Soul 1.6 at a pre-selling price of P875K.

kia columbian is paranoid kase alam nila pag di sila kumilos, the Ford Fiesta will take away all those X'mas bonuses and car buying market share sa December

wala naman ilalaban ang picanto or rio nila sa Fiesta. so kaya siguro inoffer nila ang Kia soul 1.6 bare at 875k (price range of Fiesta top of the line hatch. yun nga lang bare pa din, 1 driver side airbag hohum

Like my Forte, akalain mong aabot sa 1.3M sa atin? sun and the beach!!!!

Yes walang ABS yan at isa lang ang airbag.

**jimnyeatworld** · November 10th, 2010 01:45 AM

oo nga walang ABS saka isang airbag, walang roof rails, fog lights. tapos pag-down-in ka ng 200K sa presyong 875k, pag hinde eh 1075K.

dapat ang ibenta nila ay ang Kia Soul CRdi

Di nga ABS and its too bare. pero pag pina dress up mo sa kanila, aabot ng 1005k lahat lahat...mags, spoiler, yung dragon drawing sa body etc.

Cargo space is limited but can be expanded by folding down the rear seats, just like the Jazz and similar hatchback cars.

The SOUL's main appeal is the peppy exterior look which for me, looks like a big Mini Cooper.

Just note that the SOUL is NOT a SUV (because many people tend to compare it to the CRV, RAV4, etc). Think of it as a full sized hatchback car. With that thought, there are other cars with better value of rmoney.

So if you are not as sold with the Kia SOUL, I would suggest checking out other options available to you for a similar budget. (Example: Lancer EX GLX M/T).

Sir,

I beg to dis agree with you about the SOUL is not an SUV? With due respect po... I've been driving and owned a SOUL 2.0 it is classified in the LTO and Insurance as SUV. pati sa CAR WASH eh SUV ang bayaran.

It is compact SUV though, but it is an SUV in legal transactions.

Sir, ask ko lang if may alam kayu saan makaka bili nang ANTI THEFT TIRE VALVE CAP AND MAG NUTS LUCK?

Thanks po.
