A true bargain

I love my Amanti. It is the first new car I ever purchased and have had it three years now. I wish the gas mileage was a little better and the rear view mirror is almost too large and gets in the way of driver's view but all in all I have been quite happy with all the features. For the quality and looks of this car, it could easily cost much more.

I love the comfort in driving this car. Not so good in mileage. I had a 2004 Kia Amanti, and the reliability and easy driving convinced me of buying a new one 2006. The style will change in the year 2007 and i am sorry for that.

Nice car for the money

Chose this car for its features, safety, comfort, weight (Michigan winter winds are fierce!), first year depreciation and reliability. Paid $16k for a year-old, program car with 16k miles in like new condition. (Consumer Reports bad-mouthed the Amanti, but I've learned to discount CR opinions about many things!) This car has been next to perfect for my needs. I wasn't a leather seat fan, but these are fine. Long trips are a joy, because of the comfortable, quiet ride. CR complains about its handling, but anyone with half a brain doesn't get into situations CR moans about, and the Kia ESC helps you out of those foisted upon you by idiots on the road.

Some of the features of the trip computer are useless such as the elapsed driving time. Having a fluid systems status check would be more useful and why didn't Kia think to integrate a compass into the trip computer; that would have been useful too!

Pure Luxury

I have been driving a 2004 Hyundai Sonata GLS and was so impressed with the quality,styling and performance, I decided to buy the bigger luxury Kia Amanti. The Amanti is only 6 inches narrower than a Lincoln Town Car. Hyundai owns Kia and the same quality and fabulous warranty is there!
