Thread: Too much RED in the Burner?

Hello...I'm a new Soul wanna-be. Will post an intro in the proper area shortly. But I have a pressing question. The Kia Soul really caught my attention at the dealer today. They have a Black 4u on the floor. In asking about the Luxury model, the sales fellow said they could get the Burner edition with a Titanium exterior if I wanted that model. Of course he wants a deposit to proceed. My question is this....if you've seen the Burner Edition....how does the Red strike you? Too much Red? Unique enough that one could live with it contently? Or should I go with a Titanium exterior and a black leather interior? I'm glad to be here and looking forward to being a Soul owner.

This shouldn't really be a public question. Get what YOU like. I don't have to drive/look at it everyday. I personally don't like red, but that's me. If you think it looks sharp get it. If you like the titanium a tad bit better go for that one. Good luck either way.

If you want red, ask them to find a red one. If you want titanium, that's fine too. But don't let the dealer convince you that you want whatever they have.

I hear you. Just wanted an opinion from someone who has the Burner or at least has seen one. I can't get a look at one till I'm almost commited to it.

I have a red Burner, I've had it for 3 and a half years. Red exterior, red and black/grey interior with red LED's everywhere and red dash lighting. I wish it was more red though! RED IS BEST!

there is no Burner edition for 2013 - it was discontinued for 2013 along with the Retro model
Kia Soul: 5 Door Hatchback | Kia Canada

If they can get you a Burner it will be a 2012 model.

My opinion only, but heavily colored interiors get dated and passe very quickly. There's a reason that black, gray, tan are the standard colors for interiors, because they age well and appeal to most people. Yes, not as spectacular, but good for the long haul.

So if you only plan on having the vehicle 2 or 3 years, the red should be fine. Longer than that, I predict you have a hard time selling it.

Those red interior 80's & 90's cars were horrible to begin with but now, all sun faded. Wow. Who ever thought that was a good idea? My opinion tho. Lol.

Exactly

The red interior looks wacky and special.... A pretty good feeling to get everytime you get in a car. I got the grey cloth interior.... Yes it is nice, but its dull dull dull..... If i could have got the burner, i would.
