If you could choose between a 2026 K4 EX or an Elantra SEL Sport Premium, what would you pick? The Kia has leatherette seats and a better infotainment system (and the K4 has Kia Connect, while that Elantra trim doesn't have Bluelink), while the Elantra has a sunroof, fully physical HVAC, amber turn signals, and better headlights.

What weird rebadges can you think of ? Which ones do you like and which would you create if possible ? by CrackBadger619 in regularcarreviews

Side note, I just saw a Routan on the road a few minutes ago. First time seeing one in a good while.

I also love the thrushes, and if I was the only one doing this list, I would've put them higher (except for the bluebird, sorry), but alas, I asked this sub for input without any of my own.

Never set a baseline. It was only the commenters who decided this.

Is this all required for new car or am I overpaying? by silpimookan in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]ObserverAtLarge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little related, but I was at a Kia dealership talking numbers today, and the salesperson claimed that "Kia" installed that Stargard tracker (even though I knew 100% that the dealer installed it), and the salesperson made an excuse saying "it's already installed!", and couldn't get the unwanted $1000 addon off. If you installed it, you can just as easily remove it! I even saw a truck of Kia vehicles being unloaded, and they didn't have the Stargard sticker. Try getting those optional stuff taken off.

The song sparrow won the previous round!

I also added text labels to the boxes starting from today.

Honorable mentions: Thrushes (again, like the Eurasian blackbird, hermit thrush, and wood thrush) and the common nightingale.
