Do they come with a free steering wheel club as well? I wish this would move other manufacturers to do the same, but after the Kia Boyz debacle they're going to have to pull moves like this just to return to reputational parity with the other major manufacturers
Yes let me pull up my peer reviewed analysis of NO I don't have any data, i have a brain. The city I live in has been blighted by easily stolen cars and everyone here knows it. How many other urban centers are similarly affected? Kia and Hyundai have severely damaged their reputation with the current generation of buyers. Those who would be repeat buyers. This will be a trend. But no, i don't have proof that this will happen, or has happened, just anecdotal evidence
