I've owned this car since 2010. It now has 75,000 miles on it. It's been a smooth, quick, reliable, luxury ride People have mistake it for a Mercedes and Jaguar. My only maintenance has been,oil, brakes, and tires. I had to replace the disc player, the driver's side sun visor holder, and a fuse. I can afford a new car but can't get myself to justify trading it in since it's been paid off for years. I noticed that you can pick one of these up for $5000 give or take. Great value I believe for this luxury sedan.

We just traded in my wife's 06' Amanti for an 08'. We were very happy with her 06', but I was a bit uneasy that hers was no longer under warranty since it had just over 50K on it. Her father has the same exact car and was beginning to have some issues (catalytic converter) and had already had the lower end of the engine replaced - all under warranty. We found the 08' with 16K so it still has the remainder of the 5yr/60K warranty left. The car is a completely different animal from it's predecessor! Love the new ride, power and interior style! I also would have liked to see real metal inside rather than the plastic on the interior finish. Just ordered the Opirus numbers and oval badge!

I have owned a Lincoln LS and Jaguar S- Type. Both have had their issues. The Amanti is hands down a better riding and quieter machine than both; with more features. Recently returned from a 500 mile trip and got 26-27 mpg overall with outstanding ride. Superb power, extremely comfortable and user friendly interior. Unique styling that does NOT look like everything else on the road. And, best of all-- this car only had 2k miles but paid less than 60% of original price. Undoubtedly the best riding car yet. KIA has done a superb job in building this machine; I was a little reluctant to purchase the brand, but glad I did.
We love ours!

My wife and I were looking at cars to replace our Lincoln LS we gave our son for graduation. When my wife saw this new 2008 left over Amanti she said "let's drive this one". The sticker was $32,000 with every available option so I told salesman we didn't want to spend so much. He said "BIG discounts" so I said ok let's drive. My wife and I both loved what we saw and drove so we went home with it. We now have about 6,500 miles and am very happy with our purchase. We are getting 27.5 mpg on highway and are averaging 23.5 overall driving. We have had no problems with the car and plan to drive it till the wheels fall off.
My 2nd One - still have first

I have a 2007 with 42,000 miles and my wife loves my car. Bought her a 2008 in black with ALL the options. The cars are identical except color - defrosting outside mirrors and a back seat pass thru. Hers has zero wind noise with the sun roof interior slider pulled back and mine has just a little. My car has not rattled -squeeked or anything else since I bought it. I drove this car from S.C. to Mobile and it was perfect. I like the exterior of the Hyundai model better but the interior of this car is much nicer. Buy it - you will like it
