The same reason they buy stuff you don't like: they're not you. Are there car appreciation websites that have Progressive Rock threads?

It's a box on wheels. Seems visually rather neutral to me.

Good advertising, of course. Kia Soul ads all seem to be targeted towards vibrant, young people with a flair for hip, urban, trendy stuff (i.e. hipsters). And sure enough, every time I've seen someone driving one, they've looked like this:

^The only advertising targeted at my demographic is Cialis. Which I guess is a pretty good drive as well.

I drive a KIA (not this one, though) - good value for the buck, much better than any I've owned before

| You're only half right. They're not me and they lack taste. Now you're statement is complete. As to your question regarding car websites, if they have a general discussions forum, then any topic is game. Same as here.

It's better looking than the AMC Pacer from the late 1970s.

Saab 900 turbo. It was a company car so I drove it without complaint. The same could not be said for wife, however!

It looks a little like a Soviet Niva. So this means the entire world is falling for the communist-bolshevik-jewish conspiracy
