Better Than Cars Several Thousand More

Got my new Forte EX and I love it. I just keep finding more and more that I like about it. I think this is the type of car that can turn around Kia's bad reputation. THe fact that its inexpensive and is flat out fun is awesome. I love the plethera of options. I have found the places where Kia cut costs and used cheaper things, and overall, I think the car was made well, and designed well. I think that once word spreads about Kia being reputable, this will be Kia's top seller, and maybe top seller in its class. Better than the Civic, and cheaper? It just has to prove reliability to me and I will call it a home run.

Best Car I have bought

Between me and my wife we have bought about 6 new cars in the last 25 years. We have owned Ford, Mitsubishi's, Toyotas, Nissans and finally Kias. I have owned the Kia Forte for the past 6 months. It is the best car I have bought. My enthusiasm for the car hasn't diminished in the past 6 months. I like the firm suspension that the Forte was intentionally designed with unlike the VERY soft ride of Toyota and GM. Quality, pickup and gas mileage is great. I do not know how they got the highest horsepower with the greatest mileage in its class for a gas driven car. The engineering of the car is solid and the interior is nice and the car lines are good. I would highly reccemend this car.

I looking for gas saving vehicle. I live in Puerto Rico, so gas is very expressive. This Kia Forte has everything that I looking in a vehicle, standard options like sat radio, leather,ipod interface,style and sporty lines and off course the 2.4 powerplant to feel the power. This is a very, very hit in it compact segment, a great competitor to corolla,civic,elantra,lancer and others.

I now have about 300 miles on my dark cherry metallic EX. I went with the standard EX package with auto plus the wheels and sunroof. I am very pleased with this purchase. I have done a mix of highway and city driving that netted about 30.1 MPG on the first tank. Not bad! This car is essentially fully loaded and drives like a much more expensive car. I would highly recommend this car to anyone. From interior noise (great), to ride (smooth), to exterior looks (great and gets compliments), this car is a gem. I hate to use qualifiers, but at this price, it is REALLY a gem.
