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.

Stylish Quality Limited Cadenza
This limited trim is a classy design for both exterior and interior. The quality is obvious when you look inside and sit. The Black exterior always draws compliments since the day I bought it over 4 years ago. It is best for long drives or cargo (it actually is wide and big in the back. but no folding rear seats for the trunk--too bad. Also it does steer like a full size sedan and not easy to see all around. But it has all the sensors and more. Especially I like the Heads up view of the speed on the front windshield. The posted speed limits also show next to it. The sound system has a digital sound enhancement that really works well. It has everything the Audi and Mercedes have and more.
