Shoot they're wonderful cars... I mean today I went to the Infiniti dealership near my house to get parts and I just had to get into one of the I30s and I35s. The one thing I dislike is the fact that I'm 21 and I dont dress all classy just dressed with black jeans (a bit baggy) and a Roc - A - Wear polo shirt with a black NY cap and they didn't trust me.. ack that pisses me off. They only see the "wealthy/rich" people as consumers... bastards!
anyways my .02 cents and rant.

I bought a 2001 I30 last week with 35k miles on it. I LOVE every moment of my drive now. Very smooth and very powerful. Gotta love the V6!! I did a lot of research before buying the car and I think it's money well spent!

Yeah I cant wait to get my hands on the new M45.

The A33 is a great car though. Your mom would be very happy with it. Quick, comfortable, relyable, and they are a very good value.

The label of a clothing line doesn't give the right to judge the person wearing it... that's just ignorant. Specially since it's Europeans and Asians that are the designers, how do I know this? Cuz my uncle is the Production Manager. Anyways still find people that are prejudice over the clothes being worn are just pathetic.

Don't we all love fine asssezzz. Especially since I'm a *****, I'd love to test out the 2004 I35's assss any day. I mean after all, she's gonna be your second...

I still don't understand why you would need to go to a Kia "store" LMAO. I thought you might have spelled it wrong so he was crackin on you, but apparently not. If it is a case of being judgemental, then why don't you recommend the CEO, Dame Dash to go shop for a Kia too instead of Range Rovers and Benzes. So, when exactly did they start sellin cars in stores?

I don't know the prices around where you live, but I paid 15k for a 2001 I30 with 35k miles. 15K for 50000 miles seems a little bit high. I still have 15 days left out of my unlimited carfax, so if you want a report, PM the VIN and I'll get it out to you!
