A nice Sunday drive towards Carnation, WA in the Kia Optima SX. Filmed with one GoPro Hero and edited together to look like one take from multiple angles. This is a video test for an upcoming project.

I experienced a lot of fogging on the lens which I couldn't remove from the video in post without a lot of compression artifacting sneaking in. Need to invest in some anti-fogging inserts for the GoPro.

  • @v3battleangel - hey man congratulations on your ride! I'm expecting to buy one this week, and I have a question, is that turbo engine really lags that much?? because I was told there is turbo lag in performance and kinda you can feel it constantly, and the next complain was about cabin noise like makes unusual noise inside the car, Thanks.

  • @HyeUntiliDie I haven't experienced any lag really. The way Kia engineered this turbo was very innovative, designed especially to reduce/eliminate lag. The car isn't as quite as I would like, but I don't mind too much.

  • Beautiful car, what kind of gas mileage are you getting?

  • @constantthrottle I am only getting about 20mpg, but I almost exclusively drive city miles.

  • Wherever you live is fucking beautiful.

  • @amkua2520 Yes, but only north of Los Angeles, and slightly east of Santa Monica.

  • T~T

    En mi pais no viene le turbo

  • @v3battleangel

    Would you recommend these for Southern California driving?

  • @mgee63 Thanks. I've had some unnecessarily rough rides. But, I have no specific tire warranty. It is for Kumhos, Nexens and another brand.

    I live in Cali so don't need to worry about heavy weather or snow. Could anyone provide a good model #/name of Kumhos or better for my car. It deserves more that Kia gave it.

    Going there right now. I was on a focus group recently for new owners of Optimas who had previously driven cars other than Kia. I replaced my Acura with one, one guy replaced his BMW with one, one woman replaced her Jag with one, and on and on. One of the participants made the most salient statement at the end when asked what Kia could do better. "Why ask us, we all drank the Koolaid."
