But yes... there is just something awesome about driving a turbo, haha.
No one knows what kind of the fuel the car will use yet. Kia has 2.0 DI injected turbocharges inline four that makes 270HP while running on 87. HP rumors are around 180 for the 1.6 which is possible on regular gas.

This guy will seriously have to impress me for me to even consider buying a ford.
You're 33, tells the sales person to piss off and will you call them over when you want to go for a test drive. They give a rats ass which car is actually better for you they just want a sale. Do not relay on them on for any information, heck you're better off searching google for an answer than asking a salesmen.
