You may not be acquainted to extremely light handling at low speed; you will soon recognize that the faster the Amanti runs, the heavier it gets. The body integrity of Amanti is amazing at its low price compared to other expensive European cars. Why don't you get Amanti instead of a twice as expensive Acura or Lexus?

The Best Surprise

My wife and started looking for cars at the end of 2004. We looked at the Avalon, LeSabre, Marquis and Chrysler 300. The KIA Amanti was in the same showroom as the 300 and we fell in love with the car and the price was the best surprise. We got EVERY extra the car comes with and they added a $3,000 rebate to boot. This is the most incredibly luxurious car for $23,500 that we ever saw. I can't say enough good things about it. Would but another in a heartbeat.

I am very pleased with this vehicle, it rides well and is extremely quiet when driving on the highway. The sound system is excellent and the interior room is perfect. I've owned Mercedes for 20 years and don't see any reason to go back.

Still rides like a charm

Well, I posted a review in July 11,2007. Well this car has exceeded all of my expectations thus far. I was a little apprehensive at first, about buying a car without much of a reported "track" record, however; I have not been disappointed. Since my purchase in 2006, I have had no problems whatsoever. I have performed all of my scheduled maintenance when due. I had 46,000+ miles on the standard Hankook Optimo 417 tires before replacing them. I bought the same tires because of the handling and ride that I got from them. This car sill rides like new and still gets plenty of comments from passers-by. The fuel mileage is quite good on the highway and not so good in the city. Great Car ;-}

Buy the Amanti

I love this car. Never in my life would I have bought a Kia until I rented the Amanti. I returned the rented car on a Monday and Tuesday I drove off the lot with the Amanti. For those of you who can not afford a Full Size Luxury Vehicle, run, don't walk to your nearest Kia Dealer because now you can afford one and you wont be disappointed
