Worst Super Bowl commercial (from these people) Yet
Tho last year's was pretty stupid, too.
Actually, I only hate the last ten seconds.
But that last line makes me FURIOUS.
Why does it make me crazy....?
Punch it? Are you serious? PUNCH IT? A Kia Optima? NO. No no NO no no.
It's no faster than any other car in its class. Slightly slower than an Accord Sport or an Altima. Wayyyyy slower than anything in its class with a V6 and let's not EVEN bring up the upcoming wolf-in-sheep's-clothing 325 horsepower, 4 wheel drive Never-Saw-Yo-Whuppin-COMING Fusion V6 Sport.
Don't get me wrong. I have its sister car with every option but the larger engine And I Abso-FREAKIN-lutely love my car. But it's a comfy cruiser with special options for nerds. It was the first with Android Auto. It's gonna be the first with a tablet/phone-based user's manual for both the interior and under the hood. When my friends were braggin' to me about their Tesla (and I wanted them to, cuz hee hee TESLA) there were a couple features where I'd say oh, MY car does that.
But the one thing this car's NOT for...? Is punching. Newp. Not the 100,000 mile powertrain warranty people. Not this car. They've got nice, powerful V6s laying about--but they save them for their luxury models. They've got a turbo engine--but don't waste your time and money. They detuned it for durability's sake, but you're still gonna replace your spark plugs every 40K miles. AND their smaller 'ECO' engine's faster from zero-to-sixty. BuuUUUuuut you can't get the weight-topping options with the 'ECO' (sunroof, dual ventilated/heated front seats). I'm getting a bit silly with the details now, huh...?
Just sayin' NO PUNCHING. Other people will punch back and then you'll cry.
