    Then why the negativity in your posts? Panget, a referral that makes sense (nonsense actually, since it is outright wrong and misleading), not many other people making the same purchase...

    Then quit visiting this one, if this annoys you. I'm sharing about my newly found golden nugget in this here pond and you're banging away with an off-tune drum...

    Go be happy somewhere else and spread you own gospel. This here's a pond full of defective Nemo's, if that's what you want.

    Does the soul have paddle shifters like the carens?

    I'm not being negative here, nor am I annoyed at all that you're a big fan of the Soul, just voicing my own opinion.

    Kanya-kanyang trip di ba? If you can post that you like the Soul's looks, I can also post that I don't. This is a public forum.

    Also, it's not being negative when I say that the Soul won't sell. It's just the truth. The Soul isn't a mainstream car so it's expected. I don't think Kia sells more than a dozen of these in a month.

    Good specs, yes, but it just doesn't have any soul for me.

    The Last Word Syndrome disease, huh... i have that, too

    Public forum considered, I'd rather listen to these guys than you:

    2014 Kia Soul Review, Ratings, Specs, Prices, and Photos - The Car Connection

    2014 Kia Soul Reviews, Pictures and Prices | U.S. News Best Cars

    Kelley Blue Book

    New Kia Soul 2014 review | Auto Express

    Kia Soul 1.6 CRDi (2014) CAR review | Road Testing Reviews | Car Magazine Online

    KIA Soul 2014 - Car Review | Honest John

    Kia Soul Hatchback Review - Summary | Parkers

    2014 Kia Soul 1.6 CRDi Connect Plus UK first drive Review | Autocar

    What really took my attention is the near-perfect rating for safety. Until I came to realize that it's the tall fascia that ensures you won't end up squished under the front wheel of a bigger SUV, in case of a front end collision.

    Probably the most important reason why we must buy the safest car our budget allows.

    So my soul remains where it should, 'no?

    Wow they rated it higher than the mini cooper countryman. Nice modern tech filled interior. Looks really snazzy.

    The crdi is a plus. Can chip it easily

    I like it too now..before I can't dig the looks of it..my friend once said "parang karo" hehe.. but now I really like it specially this gen2 model..I just wished the exterior paints and mags (kinda small?) were the same on what is being sold in UK (anti mini looks hehe) ..oh well those can be settled with aftermarket service i guess.. it's really expensive considering the other available and practical vehicles on its price range but i doubt practicality will be the major factor of buyers who wants a soul.. for me i just like that it's diesel, 6 spd AT, a bit higher ground clearance, high safety rating and of course yung uniqueness niya talaga which will always be subjective

    Cardinals Tagle & Vidal can be seen heading towards another car. A Merc / Beemer maybe?

    Nakabili kana sir Newcomer123? Gaano ba kataas ground clearance nito? I'm looking for something frugal albeit powerful, and manageable to drive. Plus na siguro yung medyo mataas ng konti na ground clearance sa sedan. Any members na owner na ng CRDi?

    I tried it during PIMS, ok siya, good handling and comfortable ride. Only downsides are a lack of safety features and bare-looking interior for the base model. Kung di lang dahil doon yun na rin ang pipiliin ko. Pag yung EX variant dagdagaan mo lang konte meron ka nang montero, not worth it na.

    2 variants na actually, di lang indicated sa site nila pero meron.
    Differences:
    Different mags, not sure kung mas malaki
    Foglights
    Dual airbags (not sure)
    Side mirror signal repeater (sa LX variant nasa body panel mismo, sa EX magiging SOUL na badge siya instead)
    Steering wheel controls (left side only)

    Pricing I think is at 1102000, 100k more expensive than the LX or base trim. Tapos nagintroduce sila ng dual-tone colors during PIMS, although that will be an additional 20k from the top of the line model.

    Ground clearance is the same as sedans, about 155 mm.
