Are you looking for a used Optima, maybe a brand new Sedona for the family, or just to check if the Stinger is in. Well too bad for you if you want to see if it is at this Lawrence, KS Kia dealership .
While most dealers don’t mind if you aimlessly browse their inventory, this one apparently doesn’t want to leave any customer unmined. Sure it claims that they have this wall is to keep competitors away from their web design and incentives (even though most dealers use similar web developers/templates), but it is obviously just a front to get your name, email, and phone number so that they can destroy your phone. I especially like the anti-spam stickers, and that once you fill out the info, you can only view their inventory for 30 days.
This better not be the future of dealer’s sites. Cars.com, Autotrader, etc. are good work-arounds, but sometimes it is nice to verify availability and pricing on a dealer’s site.

Pure shit. Although I don’t mind trading my email for the Carfax. I think that’s a fair deal.
If I’m looking at a Carfax, one would assume I am considering purchasing the car anyway

I filled one of those out once but just put stuff like suckmydick@gofuckyourself.com for the email and name and then I put their phone number for the phone number.

Oh yeah, and of all the car dealer networks on the planet, Kia might be the one I’d LEAST like to give my email address. Nothing against the cars themselves, but the dealers (at least around here) are notorious stealerships.

oh no, not just any KIA, it even includes this $8k Kia . Their used car inventory is behind the wall too.

This is actually a great use for s(p/c)ammers emails. Write their address down before you delete them.

I find it interesting that their stop page is 95% the same as this one, just a different color palette.

Good thing they’re not in the business of selling cars.

Either it’s the same dealer group, the same website template, or both.
I recognized it immediately.

As if they’re doing you a favor by offering you a car.

That is almost frighteningly detailed...
I could tell it was fake because the lady it generated lived in Chicago and drove a 2012 SEAT, that’s impossible.
