We pride ourselves on providing the ultimate experience for customers from start to finish when they look to Joe Rizza Kia in Orland Park to make their new or pre-owned vehicle purchase. Compliments to our hard work and efforts are appreciated as we make strides to improve our service with each and every customer. A recent customer from Iowa was kind enough to share his experience and testimonial to our service.
Dear Joe,
This letter is written to address the exceptional personal and professional demeanor of Ramy Betouni on the sale of my newly purchased Chrysler 300 Limited. I am from Pella, Iowa home of Corporate Office of Pella Corporation. For quite some time I have been looking for a pre-owned Chrysler 300 Limited Signature Series with all of the bells and whistles. I found one through Joe Rizza and spoke to Ramy.
I have had very poor experiences with “used car” salespersons until I met Ramy. We discussed my interest over the phone, agreed upon a day and time that I would drive to Orland Park and test drive the car. The entire experience changed my attitude about purchasing a pre-owned vehicle.
As a member of your team, I want to personally thank Ramy for his personal and professional abilities. His honesty, authenticity, knowledge of the car, and handling the transaction was valuable and instrumental in helping me to purchase the car.
Thank you once again,
Matthew J. Burch, R.C.C.

Click above for a high-res gallery of the 2010 Kia Soul
A little birdie sent us a memo addressed to Kia dealers outlining the prices and specifications for the 2010 Kia Soul, due to hit dealers this April. The base model, equipped with the 122 hp, 1.6-liter inline-four and mated to a five-speed manual gearbox will be sold at an introductory price of $13,995 (including destination charge), and includes six airbags, ABS, ESC, air conditioning, power windows and door locks, an AM/FM/CD/MP3 player with three months of free Sirius satellite radio, along with USB and auxiliary inputs. For the money, the plain-old Soul is a stonkin' good deal and could cause first-gen Scion xB owners to avoid a repeat trip to the ToMoCo dealer.
The Soul + gets a bump in displacement and output, with a 142 hp 2.0-liter four, 16-inch wheels, rear disc brakes, tinted glass, body matched door handles, power mirrors, Bluetooth integration, keyless entry and cruise control. The Soul + will start at $14,950 with a five-speed manual and rise to $15,900 when equipped with the four-speed automatic.
Both the Soul! and Soul sport get the same 2.0-liter mill, but benefit from 18-inch rollers, fog lamps, an upgraded stereo, leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, and metal interior trim. The Soul! can be equipped with a sunroof and sand/black seats, while the sport model gets unique front and rear fascias, side sills, rear spoiler, a "sport-tuned" suspension, red/black interior scheme and metal pedals. Both models start at $16,950 with a manual or $17,900 with the four-speed auto 'box.
Kia claims that the Soul will have "the most comprehensive list of accessories ever developed for Kia vehicle" ranging from body kits, to wheels, to interior lighting packages and performance upgrades. We're looking forward to getting behind the wheel to see if the Soul can pick up where the second-gen. xB went astray. Hit the jump to read the memo.

Click above for more official images of the U.S. Kia Soul
Official images of the new Kia Soul have just begun making their first rounds on the interwebs. The boxy little crossover will see its first U.S. unveiling at the LA Auto Show later this month and we'll be on hand to capture the event in all its glory. Until then, take a look at these early shots of the U.S.-spec version to whet your appetite. The U.S. market Soul will get a 142-horsepower, 2.0-liter gasoline-fed four-cylinder engine that can be mated to either a four-speed automatic or a five-speed manual gearbox.
Kia is set to take on the Scion brand with the new Soul and is hoping to compete on level footing by offering a slew of factory customization options right from the dealer. Our second gallery shows some of those options that are being made available in Canada and should be a decent preview of what U.S. buyers are likely to choose from. Expect the new mini 'ute to go on sale in the Spring of next year.
