Kia's slogan is "The Power to Surprise," and I have to say the company completely surprised me in New York. While I was pretty underwhelmed by the redesigned Optima?not my style?I have to admit I was impressed by the KOUP Concept. Officially, Kia hasn't decided whether to build it, but did say the KOUP is production ready. With the exception of the door handles?which look sexy but are a little too small?up close, it doesn't have many not-ready-for-prime-time features, so it does feel like this car could drop without much modification. And with 290 horsepower on tap, it would immediately become a player on the tuner scene. My gut says Kia is waiting to see how the Genesis sells to give it the green light. What do you think, should Kia build the KOUP? More pics after the jump.
