Yeah the Accent/Rio twins were some of the last cars you could buy without AC. When we bought my wife's Rio, I wanted stick and was told that stick did not come with AC (also a 2011, bought new). For a time they also were available sans power steering. Anyhow, the no AC was a no-go. Ours was as base-model as it got, practically speaking. The auto trans/AC bundle came with no other options at all. Still had manual locks and windows. My nieces were shocked, they (sadly) had never even seen a car without power windows before. Good grief.

But I digress. That Kia really never lived up to the potential I thought it had. It was hard just to break mid-30s!

I should update my siggy...we traded that car a month ago, lol
