Hands down the BEST car i have ever owned! I never had any major problems and it has been good to me. I put many many miles on it and still have only had to do regular maintenance.

UPDATE 5/19/2017 I still have the car but my wife drives it now the vehicle has about 85K on it (my wife drives for a living). We've had no issues w/the car except a regular maintenance. It does have one small and obscure rattle in the cabin that I can't pin point but I am confident is something of my wife's since she has a mobile office in there. All the electronics still work and we're both thankful for the cooled driver seat. I recently did a KBB on the value of the car and I was floor at how poorly is held its value. 3 year old car with high mileage will only snag me 11K!? My 2 year old ram 1500 held better value than that so that is really the only major complaint I have. I still think if you can pick up a used one coming off a lease for 20K or so it'd be a good deal for what you get. The V6 is still smooth as ever and the car is still fun to drive. I took on a new job that required a lot of travel. I had to get rid of my beloved pickup and downgraded to a Prius. I absolutely hated the prius. Granted it gets great gas mileage but the ride and everything about the car was not comfortable for me. I started researching luxury cars and decided between the Kia Cadenza and the Buick Lacrosse. I really felt the buick was a more comfortable ride, the seats were softer but that is pretty much where the pro's for that car stopped. I settled into the Kia Cadenza Premium w/the luxury package for $27K. I am glad I did as I took a 500 mile trip and really fell in love with that car.

The car is unsatisfactory 1) as it does not give the estimated mileage that was advertised on the window sticker and 2) the engine does not have sufficient pickup. 3) The navigation on the car has been giving erroneous directions over the last several months.I took the car to Braman Kia for service. The service advisor is not knowledgeable nor competent. I had taken the car to resolve this problem and for a maintenance (oil change). I asked him if he could take care of both while I went to lunch and come back a few hours later. After I did, neither had been done on the car. The Kia service person did not know how to solve the navigation problem even after I explained how to. 4) update 6/24/16. Overall reliable car. Has lot of options. It is good value. Three main disappoints were 1. Lack of pickup. Needed a more powerful engine 2. Navigation took me to wrong places several times. 3. Fuel economy was not what was stated on window sticker.

I purchased the 2014 Cadenza in late June and immediately took a 2,500 road trip to California. The Cadenza is a very well behaved sedan that will turn heads and compete with the so-called big boys. I averaged over 30MPG for the trip and power was more than sufficient for my liking. The seats were extremely comfortable and I loved the seat coolers on both front seats, especially as we ventured into the 100+ degree Central Valley. I previously drove a 2002 Audi A6 and was tempted to go that route again, but for $20,000 less, I get fantastic mileage, same creature comfort, a beautifully designed exterior and easy to use electronics. I'll be interested to see how it holds up in the coming years

It's a great value however before my car even had 55,000 miles on the odometer I had the fuel sending unit and oxygen sensor replaced. The rack and pinion also failed all repaired under warranty. I wasn't expecting all these things with such low mileage. The car has never stopped running at all despite the problems. I had one issue where the entire car just died and needed a jump. The car turns head everywhere I go. I love the look and functions of the car. I think you'll love the car as if repairs do arise they are a lot cheaper than the other luxury brands. The car is excellent on the highway and very comfortable on long trips. I've enjoyed this car despite the few issues and I think you would too.
