For whatever reason these cars seem to be few and far between. I have always owned German, but this past weekend, I borrowed my mother's 2008 Amanti for a short road trip. The car did amazingly well cruising on the highway. Very roomy and comfortable with very supple leather interior. The air conditioning works great, and the ride was very soft without being too boat-like. The best part of the trip was when I calculated the gas mileage to be 26 mpg, which for such a large sedan with such power seemed excellent. I would recommend this car to anyone looking for a comfortable and reliable car. The dealership has been great for service and the warranty is outstanding!

update.after 17000 miles,i have realized that this car i lousy around town,both in ride & quietness,but take her on the highway,away from the virginia beach roads,and she shines.highway mileage is around 30mpg,but the ride in city driving is not even on par with cadillac.all rattles have pretty much disappeared,but still concerned with the ride which tends to turn harsh over sharp bumps.i thought this was a luxury car????????? the power is great,but the tranny seems to hesitate at times,unless you use the manual gate.

Excellent car, outstanding build quality. Feels and rides with luxury approach. Styling is different and elegant. Outstanding features for the price, I don't need navigation but Kia should put it in for those that want every option. Could have spent 5 grand more for a new Malibu V6 LTZ, but it's just another tarted up car that has cheaper versions, an Amanti has it all.
Great luxury car

After driving midsized cars for a number of years, I felt it was time to venture up. With barely 200 miles on it, I am already seeing 30 mp on the highway. I am feeling a slight vibration when I apply the brakes, but I think that's just a brake rotor out of round. Other than that, not much else to say.

this is a follow-up to my 17000 mile review.after taking my car to the dealer in chesapeake,the service department found that my car came with m&s tires,which have a stiffer compound.can anyone else tell me if their car came with the same tire? khumho solus 225 kh16 m&s.kia corporate tells me they can't understand why these tires are on my car,and will be calling me this coming week to help find a solution.i will be greatful for anything they can do.my highway mileage still peeks between 29- 33.to anyone having problems with kia corporate,i find that quite hard to believe,as they have always been very helpful to me.
