Used 2009 Kia Amanti Consumer Reviews
2008 Kia Amanti
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.
Overlooked Excellence
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!
Kia, tell the world you've got it right!
This is my second Amanti. I enjoyed the first one, but wanted more power, period. I got it now. Love the sound with the dual exhausts. This is my dream car. Ready to take a long trip. Love the compliments.
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
