I just love the statement that Peter Schreyer at worked BMW ......................nope Audi , there goes his theory of ripping off BMW ........................maybe he ripped off the rings and then made them look like a dog bone ......................thats nice !!
If Schreyer (from Audi) helped design, and Biermann (from BMW) helped with the performance specs, and they both work for Kia, then they didn't rip off anyone. It's THEIR stuff. It's like saying John DeLorean ripped off Pontiac when he designed his car.
^ The reviewer is an ignoramus (in addition to getting things totally wrong).
BMW started their famed M performance division by luring away Jochen Neerpasch from Ford (head of Ford’s Motorsport division) and key members of his team during the early 1970s.
As for Kia's Tiger nose grille - comes in many different shapes, sizes and variations.
