The Soul is pandering to the tastes of a too young crowd. A great many people buying Souls are middle aged and older of which I am one. As an older buyer I want more color choices both interior and exterior, the option of leather seats in brown and saddle tan, all exterior paints metallic, option of a disc player. I don't like "packages", I want to choose every option. Because I live in snow country, I want all wheel drive. The all black interiors are a turn off for me....they show every speck of lint and dirt. What I love about the Soul is the name, the exterior looks, visibility, safety features, available options in the Plus model. I'm at the age where I want a bit of luxury. One more thing, I don't like my cars to sit too low to the ground. I didn't buy the Soul because the dealership was trying to sell me a car that had been sitting on the lot for over a year at the brand new price and that was never going to happen. The insurance was also higher than I wanted to pay but I realize it was because it was a new vehicle with all those electronic features that I would never use. Power seats are a must as well as heated. There are many things and options for a Soul plus that I really love but ultimately it was the cost that was the undoing of the deal for me. I ended up buying a Buick Encore Premium '13 year. I love the luxury features and the brown and tan leather interior combined with the metallic black exterior paint. The cabin is quieter.

I recently bought a 2017 KIA Soul and am so happy with it. I was surprised how much room is in it especially in the back when the seats are down. I am always moving things and this will fit lots of things in the back. I really enjoy zipping around town in my KIA. It rides smoothly and I feel like I am driving a race car. The radio sounds great and the seats are comfortable. My son likes the look of it too. I will definitely be recommending this car to my friends and family!
