I remember creating this car when I was "Classics Dreamin". 10 years later and it still does not have quite enough stats recorded. Also, 15.6 seconds at 90 mph? That's "174" hp territory, not 274. But now Kia is underrating their cars, as opposed to overrating.

This was the Kia Stinger/Stinger GT of its day

Yep, this "improvement" didn't even last a full day. What a surprise.

Well done Classics Dreamin!

Now everything is fine.

I believe this is Kia's Ferrari--due to it's 274 horsepower engine and a curb weight of 3,385 pounds.

...Okay. We'll see how long this "improvement" lasts.

@ Classics Dreamin: I've made some rude, but amusing comments about some of the other vehicles you've added, but you're alright, this shows improvement. ;)
BTW, I can give you another specification on this Kia Optima SX T GDI: Top speed: 160 MPH, or at least that's the top speed of its cousin the Hyundai Sonata Turbo, same weight, same engine, but the Sonata I have the specs on has a manual transmission.

I made a new car on this website, but this time, no 600+ HP TT AMC Javelin!
