My friend has a Rio. It fell apart after a year. He still drives it, but he can't get anything else because A) It's worthless & B) He still owes on it.
I feel bad for him, I really do.

KIA RIO

If you have ever tried to do any type of maintenance work on a Kia you would keep the Accord. Cheap Korean POS.
yea, well, i'm not looking for something thats 9 K to last forever,
I am really only looking for it to be reliable for a few yrs or so.
just for work, if it last 5 yrs or so great, with the money I get for living expenses, it would be paid for in just a few years, so thats really all i'm looking for just reliabilty for a few yrs then I'd junk it, then it would serve its purpose...
if something major would arise after a few yrs, I wouldnt be fixing it,

My friend has a hyndai or what ever there called, it's an accent. The car has over 105k miles on it. It's in 04. He got it brand new and for free; on sober grad night. He drives over 200 miles a day. He has no problems with the car. It's reliable. There the same company as kia. Good car. I can take pics of it if you want. It's a cool little car.
You need to watch the top gear episode called "Korean Crap" LOL...

I love James May's comment the best "You get something like a car, but not as good". :biglaugh:

Will,
I think as long as you don't drive it in a stupid manner and maintain it properly, you'll be fine with the Rio. I have a friend with one and it has been trouble free. It gets him from point A to point B. You may not be stylin but that's what the Supra is for. I traded my truck for a Suzuki Forenza which is actually a GM Daewoo built in Korea. So far so good. Good luck with your decision, although it shouldn't be that hard.
