Is 40 grand for a car what most consider reasonable?

I usually enjoy reading Larry Larks’ car reviews, but one thing he said got me thinking. He was reviewing the Kia Stinger and he said the price ($39,250) made it “accessible to most common folk.”He might want to rethink that.

I understand he was trying to point out that it was much more affordable than the Lexus he reviewed earlier. He was correct there, but to say that most common folk could afford a car like this is ludicrous. Most common people might be able to afford a Kia Forte or Optima, but not something that would top 40 grand out the door.
