I notice that some of the photos show fender vents or faux-vents (which I happen to like). Does any one know whether these will be included on the production models? In any event, an awesome car that I will indeed own as soon as they are available! Way to go, Kia!

If that's the case, it appears that the show cars do not have the fender side vents. In any event, what a gorgeous car. As far as a sporty car, it's hard to beat the Optima for the price. But as far as class, elegance, and features go the Cadenza beats all the competition.

Those vents seem to have disappeared, I guess they were trying to be a little sporty with the cadenza and just pulled back. It makes sense for the vents to have an actual purpose and not just for looks. Maybe they didnt want to get flamed for that reason and just focused on the cadenza towards elegance styling.

^^^Good Point CaStanza.

Kia Motors Signs Multi-Year Extension as “Official Automotive Partner of the LPGA”

Announced yesterday, April 3rd. It's good to see the Cadenza getting public attention before showing up on dealer lots in the U.S. It will be high-profile in the media and then on the streets!
