Tbh - look for a 2012 Hyundai Genesis if you want to find a cheap kia v8. Otherwise you'll need to look for the k900 (obviously)and the Genesis g80 and 90. After hearing how this sounds. I want that Genesis
People late at night be like "there goes that loud ass truck again" naw fam it's the k900.. Nobody would expect that sound coming outta a whip like that and for that reason I like it man.. sounds hella beast mode
I would definitely recommend with at least adding some resonators to cancel some of the drone and so its not ridiculously loud. My wifes 2015 K900 i replaced the 1st 2 mufflers witg magnaflow magnapacks, and then deleted the 2 rear mufflers. It sounds absolutely great and no annoying drone on the highway, and you dont need ear plugs
@@Xlnjv i would definitely recommend having a Kia extended warranty, because the parts for these cars are ridiculously expensive. We just had the front seat replaced and the truck latch and relay, and it was $7k! We had the ultimate extended warranty so only paid $100 deductible
See I like seeing this. This is what I be talking about. a lot of people be sleeping on Hyundai not knowing that Hyundai makes Kia. What you are looking at is a Equus and a Genesis in Kia form. An unsuspecting V8
@@4door5.05 how many miles does it have and how much you got it for? if u don’t mind me asking … I’m looking at one 2015 with 70k miles they want 23k I think it’s a little high
Man I was just thinking about older but modern v8 cars like the crown vics etc and was wondering what if you put a muffler or straight pipe on a new car wit a v8 but there aren't many until i remembered my coworker has a k900 with the v8 and so i went down the k900 v8 exhaust rabbit hole and here I am 😂😂 A big luxury style car sounding like a truck is unexpected but i like it.. It defies the luxury aspect of the car but fuck it.. I gotta show my boy at work this video.
I just picked up a 15 with the vip package the only thing I think this car lacks is the touch screen from the 16 which gives you android auto and Apple car play
Must not have been paying attention? Lots of people pass Kia by, just like they did nearly any early Asian car manufacturer. The thing is they get much better real quick. I bought a a Lexus LS400 when they first came out in 1990 and loved it. Kept it for four years as I was putting on a lot of miles back then. Then I sold it at a solid price and bought two more that were VERY lightly used at one year old. Loved them too and kept them longer as I wasn't putting on as many miles then. When the K900 came out in 2015 I just had to have one. I live in upstate NY and flew to Orlando FL to buy it as I wanted the pearl white with the white interior wt black accents. Bought it when I retired and have had it seven years now. Looks and drives like brand new and I love it like the day I bought it. And let me tell ya, that 5.0 naturally aspirated V-8 mated to the eight speed ZF transmission pulls like a freight train and yet gets 29-30 mpg on an interstate! I'll keep it as long as I can because they only imported the V-8 model for two years then switched over to the twin turbo V.6 used in the Stinger. You should be able to pick up a good 15 or 16 K900 at a very reasonable price and You'll love it too.
Who would've known a Kia could sound this good. Wow
Shit sounds so good 🎵
Right? I saw one TODAY did not know they existed it sounded just like this one
And look this good too
It’s a V8
You weren’t even alive for the bad Korean car times, stop that bullshit. Kia and Hyundai been stepped up
cant believe they took the v8 out and now they discontinued them... Seriously one of the coolest sleeper cars ever!
And they look good too
*"I love you daddy"*

3:07 definition of a sleeper. Insane congrats on the car
I'm here because I witnessed a straight piped k9 today. I'm impressed
Right on ! Definitely a is That a Kia moment
I can't lie though. Against that fence?!?! Sounded like a 392 scat pack 😆😆
Just bought a 2015 with 30k miles .Very excited
Your children were great.
what a BEAST, enjoy man !
Thanks 🤝
Damn your little girl saying "i love you daddy" was like a last ditch effort for you to get milk AND come back.😂😂

Thinking about getting one myself. Sounds good too

Kia K900 is a lot of car for the price. Very nice car
Just heard abt this car, I'm definitely considering it
I Love my 2016. Would never rev a Lux car like a race car, but to each it own. BUT, I never thought it could happen tho LOL!!
Calling a Kia a luxury car is insane 😂
@@soliddd1765this one is a luxury car… Just because it’s a Kia doesn’t mean they’re not capable of making a luxury car🤣

I watched this so long ago and it’s still more baddass than a hellcat IMHO
New subscriber, love the car it sounds really good i have a 2012 equus with same engine. Them kids is lit and having fun ❤
I’ve been wanting one of these for a long time, wildly underrated car. How’s the maintenance been?
I’ve got a extended warranty so any problems just pay my deductible oil change tires etc regular prices nothing to crazy yet lol

I gotta show my boy at work this video.
I knew about the Genesis 5.0 but didn't know about the kia, I guess they share the same engine
Hyundai and Kia are the same company man. Hyundai (Genesis) is somewhat the luxury side of Kia I guess you can say.
Sheeesh. Damn that sounds good.
I lieterally just found out that Kia made a v8 sedan lol came straight to search for an exhaust clip on here
Preciate you droppin in
Can you explain how the Kia sound came out? This is the same as my car, but it is not the same sound. Can you explain the method?
No mufflers no resonators
Do you explain the method in a video
She sound beautiful
Великолепно. Perfect. Nice. Best.
Dam! I wonder if I can get my 2014 Cadenza to sound like this.
Cadenza isn’t a V8 right?
@@dontenewton541it’s not, only a v6
@@andreg9777 it’s a k900 and they have a v8 I own one they also have a v6 option
@@dontenewton541 I was talking about the cadenza only being a v6.
I've heard a couple of Kia videos with them saying they're straight pipes. Yours sound better. What else you've done?
How??? I'm getting my k900 in a few days. Need ideas to customize it
i have wheels on mine, tint, a beefy exaust and i blacked out my chrome
one sad part is that it heavy af.. but want one myself. aero susp, v8.... sound. dont care that its slower than anything.
I just got one of these!!! Yours sound tuff!!! What all you did to it ? I need this set up lol
Everything chopped off but the cats
Incredible
Yo man just got one last week what all did you do to the exhaust?
Straight pipe
I’m here because my friend LS400 got gapped by one of these, and he couldn’t understand so why I sent him the specs, and he was like oooohhhh loll😮😮😂😂
Who makes the engine? is that the Lexus 5.0 or Ford 5.0 or they actually make their own .
It’s actually a Kia /Hyundai 5.0
Would you say its been reliable?
Damn Maserati killer.
Looking at one of these right now might get this over an rt charger
I was gonna get a scat but I got approved for this I def can keep up behind with scats n rts are a lil slower
It’s something different to I wanna scat to but ima probably play wit this for a minute it got everything I’m looking for in a car
@@hoodbabyda man I got double sun roof hear cool seats the whole shebang and 420 hp can’t bet that
@@4door5.05 it’s pretty fast you would say for it to be a smooth luxury car?
@@AlmightyKes a supercharger would def turn it up lol but 420 hp not to bad for daily driver
Sounds good but i know that drone has to be crazy.
@@DeionDeion-ox1zf no drone
Have you done any performance modifications?
Nope not very many to go with
Any codes pop up after straight piping?
No
I just picked up a 15 with the vip package the only thing I think this car lacks is the touch screen from the 16 which gives you android auto and Apple car play
You can order a new SD card from Hyundai and update the infotainment to have Apple car play
@@baileymartin7641 since when? Lol
Theirs no sd card slot for the k900 it's in 2016 but not 2015
Stupid question is it reliable? And would you recommended this car to a first-time kia buyer?
This my first Kia just make sure you get an extended warranty cuz parts are extremely expensive
@@4door5.05 im taking notes 📝📋
I drive a k900 and I'm disappointed your not driving it on sport mode. Not only it's quicker. The dash looks cooler
My 2.0 went out looking at a 5.0😈forte
Is this a fast car?
Does this car have an air suspension? Just curious.
No
Why am I just finding out today that the k900 has a v8 😓

15
I just got a 17 same color with the VIP package, I'm still considering straight piping it
@@iTzStevee9 I wouldn’t do a straight pipe again I do think it needs some mufflers but it does attract the “is that a Kia “ question alot lol
C’est vraiment 🔝
🔥
What’s the point in having a loud car ??
So for me I’ve alwsy wanted a v8 and I love the way it sounds plus it allows ppl to see that Kia made a v8 😎
Cant beat a 5.0 v8 sedan for a good price
Maybe some dynomax or thrush turbos. That sounds tinny.
👍🏾💪🏾
Bro I got questions because I’m looking at one now
Let me know I’ll make some videos
Damn I didn't know I just didn't know lol

I dont if wanna straight pipe mine or do flow.masters
You should do a 0-60
He won’t lol it’s slow just sounds pretty damn good
