A beautiful car from an up and coming brand. definatly worth taking a closer look at for someone that likes a quiet, comfortable, and safe automobile. It's basically a nice riding box with the look of mercedes, Bentley, and jaguar slaped with the name KIA!
Love this car!

We loved the Amanti as soon as we test drove it. Got a great deal for all the bells and whistles. Comfort is exceptional. The AC is terrific with climate control for the driver and passenger as well as back seat. The sound system is awesome. We were looking at new Bonneville/Grand Prix but purchased an Amanti. Head room, with a sunroof great for a 6'3" person. Head hit the sunroof of the Grand Prix.

This attractive automobile was a present. It drives smoothly and can handle curves. The seats are comfortable and recline to accomodate everyones needs. This car accomodates single drivers or MOM's with kids. The The stereo system is awesome. The car is very detailed. You must spend hours driving it to experience it's full potential. The instruction manual is very long but anyone with basic knowlege can figure it out. There's lots of extra ammenities that one may never use but it's nice to have them if you desire.
price is right

I bought a cobalt blue Amanti with every available option. It is a gorgeous, classy car and I have all the toys that would have cost twice as much in any other luxury vehicle. I marvel at how Kia did this for the price I paid. I shopped a long time and drove a lot of vehicles before I picked the Amanti, and it is without doubt the best value for dollar on the market today. It drives like a dream and the payments don't cause nightmares.
Awesome Ride!!

Great car! Looks good! Interior is very nice with just about all the bells and whistles a person could want. Exterior is not flashy but very nice and impressionable. Power is not overwhelming but acceptable.
great car for the price

I traded in a 99 Caddy Catera. Wont go back to the Caddy, because this car gives me luxury without the high price. I love the look and feel of it. The dual climate control is wonderful. The outside looks like a very expensive car, and the leather seats are so comfy and roomy. This car is going to hurt the competition, because of the price and features it has. I love this car.

This car is amazing! I never thought I would be able to afford a car with such luxury and comfort unless I forked over 80,000 dollars. I can't begin to tell you how many compliments I get from total strangers wanting to know where they can get one. I do know that after driving this car, there is no way I could bring myself to buying anything else.

I have owned this vehicle for four years and cannot say enough good things about the Amanti. The way it looks, the way it drives, the comfort of the interior are all comparable to a luxury sedan at a more affordable price.

I noticed the description said "odd proportion" but I think the Amanti has the style of 3 cars in one: Jaguar, Mercedes, Lincoln. It has CLASS. I have owned the car for only 4 months and in that 4 months I have received the most compliments on my car. People stop and look, go get their spouses, ask what kind, and simply admire my car which makes me really proud. I have the Pearl color. The Amanti is a Classy car for a great price! Thanks Kia.

I reciently traded in my Lincoln Continental for a new Amanti and I love it. The style in younger and more updated than any other car in it's class and it has all the aminities that my Linclon had. The price was excellent and it came fully loaded. It drives like a dream with good pick-up, turning radius and comfort. For the price you can't beat it and the 5 year bumper to bumper coverage makes it worth trying something new and exciting.

The Kia Amanti is easily the best kept secret in the automotive industry. This is the quietest car made. The engine has plenty of power and coupled with the five speed automatic provides good fuel economy too. The ride and cumfort easily matches the top of the line automobiles such as BMW and Lexus for a price that is unbelieveable. Buy this car and you won't be sorry. The Koreans have proved that they can match the quality of anything made in Japan, Germany or the good 'ol USA.

I was looking for a unique, stylish car with a great drive and ride. The Amanti accomplomplishes all of this plus much more. Most people initially think it might be a Jaguar with a Mercedes Benz flair. Toss in a little bit of Lincoln Town car and you end up with one fashionable vehicle.

Overall the car is a winner, The style is excellent, the ride is very good, it has a big car feel, I wish the engine was a bit more powerful, however, that dosen't take away from the performance I have enjoyed thus far. I have the optional leather package - the only way to go.

I rented an Amanti from Enterprise and could not believe the quality and ride of this vehicle. I even offered to purchase the one I was renting on the spot. Tuesday October 26, I bought a used siver on with all the options but the rear heated seats and traction control. The car rides like a $50K plus automobile. I agree with the other reviewers that the styling does turn heads. The car just floats down the highway. Excellent car for the money.

my first car not of american manufacture. I am very pleasantly surprised by the quality of this auto. I also have received many compliments about the design. My last auto was a Lincoln Continental and this auto is every bit as nice and comfortable as the Lincoln. I would not hesitate to buy another Kia.

This is my second Kia. Previously owned a Sedona that I traded in on the Amanti. No regrets at all. The build quality is excellent. Ride and noise levels are superb, the Infiniti sound sytem is wonderful and the leather interior is top notch. With around 6000 miles driven so far the car seems to be performing better and the mileage is improving to an average of 20 mpg in town and 25 on highway. I would highly recomend this vehicle to anyone looking for an affordable luxury car.
Awsome Ride!

I love this car... I get compliments on it every day, and people ask if they can look at the inside. The only thing I do not like about this car is the rear view mirror. It is sooo large, and placed right in the middle of the windshield. It is impossible to see traffic.... A design flaw that needs atention!
The Amanti is the Premium

The Amanti is a well put together sedan with a lot of extras. It handles well and the fuel economy is acceptable, 25+ on the hwy @ 65-70 MPH. The warranty certainly supersedes any other vehicle in its class. Everyone thinks it is a Mercedes or Jaguar, it is a great car to drive. I also think it is priced very reasonably.
Just Plain Smart!

With this car its a "win Win Situation" Great price for LUXURY! You get all the bells whistles and luxury for SEVERAL Thousand less than LEXUS, BMW and Jaguar plus you get a 10 year Warranty! The leather is SUPERB and the Styling Elegant! Can you hear me now! Buy one its worth every penny!

one of the quietest, smoothest rides I have experienced, bar none. I do not know how Kia can sell an auto of this quality for the asking price, but I am glad to be one of the first year model owners. People ask what kind it is and comments are always favorable. Big car style, Mercedes-look headlights,LOTS of chrome including front grill. Interior has wood trim & optional leather pkg. Very lg trunk w/full sized matching tire & wheel. Sideview mirror even angles down when backing up to avoid anthing on ground behind car. Beautiful full mats standard. Adjustable front & rear headrests. 20-23 MPG. I LOVE THIS CAR!

I wasn't immidiately considering the Amanti as my next car at first. But then I looked inside the car, and decided right there. The Amanti's interior would look right at home in any luxury sedan, and here it was in a $25,000 KIA! Even though the rest of the car wasn't quite as impressive the ride was comfortable, but acceleration and handling were somewhat disappointing) but the interior made me go for it. I have owned the car for about a month now, and have about 1,000 miles on it, and nothing has gone wrong yet. And if it does, KIA will pay for it, so I'm not worried.

I own a Carbon Gray Amanti, (leather, sunroof, etc.), and as most others, I love it! People don't seem to know what to make of it. At first I thought styling looked a little odd, -now I absolutley love it. I have yet to see another one on the road, which makes it exclusive (for now at least).

Kia has produced an impressive large car that rivals anything in its class, and other classes as well. I drove nearly 45 different makes and models over a 3 month period before settling on the Amanti. I have not been disappointed at all. I think this car over time will be viewed as a breakthrough vehicle, and if Kia manages to improve on it, the world will soon see a new standard for a luxury automobile.
Very Satisfied

I traded in my 2001 Lexus GS300 for this car. This car is similar in many ways except two. It's less expensive than my Lexus and the warranty is better. 1500 miles on the Amanti already and I love it. Coworkers actually thought it was a new Lexus when I first drove it to work. Say hello to the new look of Kia. I'm proud!
Would still buy it again

Purchased March 1, 04. Since then I have had to return to the dealer to have the right front strut tightened, new carrier bearing, new transmission, new radio, to have the computer reset, and to pick up a new trunk light bulb. I currently have strut coller's and bushing's on order. But, with all this, the car handles as good as any I've had, and this is #79. This car will get you looks, nice smiles and not once has anyone said anything bad after seeing everything it offers. Got $25,000? Offer the dealer $23,000 and drive it home. Power everything, great radio, leather, dual heat/air-power outside mirror's that tilt down in reverse. What else could you want?

I bought my Amanti in May 2004. I am very satisfied with everything except the noise generated underneath the car on city streets. It could be sound insulated better to aleveate this noise distraction. It is very distracting. However, on the highway, it is very quite. In fact it is one of the quietest cars I've ever driven on good roads. The wind noise is almost non-existance. The fit & finish is excellent. The gas mileage is a decent 25.5 MPG on the highway. The seats, both front & rear are very comfortable. It could use a little more horsepower but I highly recommend this vehicle. It is an excellent value for your dollar.

I looked at the first one to arrive in Omaha. Looks like very limited numbers will be getting to the dealers this year, expect to pay window or above. Major mistake in my opinion, as I would have purchased if they were pricing like their sister car, the XL350. As it is, more expensive than a similiar Buick or the Hundia XL 350, close to an Avalon in actual exit the door price. A nice car, very roomy, but price and quanity are going to make this a hard one to buy.
