Also has a full digital speedometer/drive display, also ambient lighting in the cabin on the doors and above the glove box. Woah even we got ventilated and heated seats and rear AC vents. Only think missing for me is the lane keeping stuff, I only got normal cruise control.

    Just bought mine today. Same year, color and model. A beast. The lights at night time is so sexy and the Kia Access app is a beast. My brother works at the factory and I was able to knock an extra 1,200 off with the discount.

    So, I had to chuckle a bit at your consternation about K5's not having a sunroof. As I'm sure you have since found out - they do. A Panoramic Sunroof package in fact - which I ordered on my White GT-Line last week. Great video by the way.
