Ordinarily this is car should not be here, this is not the sort of car that you would expect to find in the pages that support import builders. However, here it is and it is looking good too.

The Kia Rondo must have been initially built with the family in mind, it has all of the features that you expect to find in a family car like four doors and the statuary hatchback, but here we are looking at Kia Rondo that is the handy work of KSportline and a good job they have done too.

The first that you notice about this car is the colour, it is the House of Kolors Kandy Cobalt Blue probably one of the best colours for this car; it really suits the shape and style. However, this car is all about accessories and that is what KSportline is all about too, there probably is not a single inch where their influence cannot be seen.

Kia is not normally a brand that you would be associated with tuning or the building of a massive import car that turns the heads of people walking down the street.

Korean cars have come a long way in the recent years Hyundai and Kia are the one that spring to mind, yet these are cars that still appear to lacking something when it comes to a powerful driving experience they have never really been at the top of the list.

Until now that is as these cars become more sophisticated and very good looking to the eye, yet out of all the models available the Rondo by Kia would not be the top choice initially but that is because we don’t have the foresight of KSportline.

They have managed to change the perception of the vehicle by completely accessorizing it with their own line of products that could mean a whole new product line for the firm who would need to accommodate all of those Rondo owners who also want a car like this.

This car was originally built for SEMA 2008, by Showopt and Kia Motors America. This is a one of a kind machine for now, but Korean cars are being customized more and more these days, why? Nobody can, but cars like this one will not be doing the cause any harm at all.

To many people the Kia and other Korean made cars are cheap general runabouts, but recently the likes of Kia and Hyundai have been bringing some decent cars although there are those models that need the touch of the specialist tuner, the rise of the compact car scene is upon us.

No other car demonstrates this more than the Kia Rondo, this car as it stands is nothing special, but you would not know that from looking at this model. Kia handed this over to ShowOpt who decided to brand this model as the KSportline model.

The thing about the Korean motor industry is that their cars appear to be designed with customising in mind, their size and construction makes then a tuners dream, in some cases no modifications to the bodywork apart from paint are changed either giving us a whole new world of customisation to look forward to.
