Great car and even a greater deal
I bought this 2017 Cadenza in March of 2018. I think Kia made too many of them, and a lot of them ended up unsold in Florida. The car had an MSRP just under 40K and the lease payment was $325 plus tax for the Technology version. This is an astounding price for a very competent car. Warning: this was the perfect storm: too many not so popular cars and 4 months after the new model year (unchanged) was introduced. My advice is to have three or four different cars on your radar, and be flexible. Sometimes manufacturers and dealers combine to lose money just to move the older cars off the lot, and that's what happened here.

Kia Cadenza 2019
My opinion on this 2019 Kia Cadenza has not change. I love this car, the way it drives, it's comfortable and Ioaded with safety features. I have had this car for over a year now with no problems other than the regular maintenance. Like I said in my previous review I would not hesitate to purchase another Cadenza.

Unassuming luxury!
The ride is smooth and comfortable. It has all of the tech features you could want in a car. Too many to comment on here, but you will not be disappointed. The premium sound system plays quite loudly with no distortion! I've noticed a slight lag in acceleration but a nice reserve of power the moment it engages. The power of it's 6 cylinder, 290 hp is just right for this size sedan, It is disappointing to me that the Cadenza has been discontinued in this country. Of course, that is due to low sales. But then, when have you ever seen the Cadenza advertised? It has all the qualities to compete with the popular Avalon from Toyota, and I wish KIA had pushed it more. In summary, I love this car! It's ride and handling beat the Optima/K-5, is steadier and responsive. I remain a "SEDAN FAN" in this era of SUV's because they handle and ride better..
Great large car
This is a great car at a good price. Can't beat 0% financing.

The Cadenza tells people you know about cars.
The Cadenza is a joy in every possible way. There is simply not another car at anywhere near this price point that has all the benefits of this one. The one caveat I would offer is this: do you want a big car? Seems simple, but if you're used to driving something smaller it definitely provides a different experience. And I love it. If you are one of those who still likes a large sedan, with plenty of room and comfort for five, this is your car. Run, don't walk, to the nearest Cadenza, drive it, and you will more than likely end up owning it. Even technology from 2017, in this car, is astonishing. It is extremely comfortable, very quick, comfortable, and gives you a feeling of security and safety. I read a lot about cars and have wanted a Cadenza for years. I just purchased one, and I could not be happier. I have owned Audis, Cadillacs, Acuras, and BMWs, among others, and no car has been a better choice than the Cadenza. Buy one and thank me later! :)
