Used 2010 Kia Forte Sedan Consumer Reviews
Sweet SX - Automatic 2.4L
Just took it on my SX 4-dr on its inaugural tour to north Florida. I have 2,500 miles on it now and LOVE it! Exterior paint and finish is superior. Plenty of exterior chrome and the details have a quality look. A very 'tight' feel to this vehicle. Excellent drive-ability and handling. Steering is sure and responsive. Braking is smooth and reassuringly certain. I preferred the comfort and roominess of the 4-door SX over the 2-door Koup. The transmission can be jumpy with Cruise Control in the hills (combination of 5 speed auto and 2.4 L). Lots of seat maneuverability to find the right passenger seating comfort on the road. Too much plastic in the dash, however it has a finished look and feel.
Great Car!
I love this Car! I saw this car advertised in the paper and it quickly caught my eye, then i saw the price and was like wow! after a quick test drive and the usual 4 hour negotiation with a trade I drove it home and that says a lot because I loved my Nissan xterra just not the gas it was costing me for my 50 mile round trip to work.

We are getting excellent value from our sedan
We have a 2010 FORTE EX lease car for $ 239 a month with -0- down, -0- first month payment and a $ 400 disposition fee. So our monthly cost for this car is pretty low. We have 20,000 miles on it to date. We just drive 500 miles Sunday Dec 9,2012 and we got somewhere between 32 and 35 MPG. We have Blizzack Snow tires, four adults in the car, limited luggage. We adjusted the seats to get good leg room, we are all 6 foot tall. We have the Automatic 4 speed. The car's equipment all works good. We have had no dealer service. We do oils changes and tire changes. That is all. Our dealer is a dishonest crook. ( Vision Kia of Fairport NY ). He can't change so we just pray for him and hope for best
ITS A SURE THING!
Have had a Camry, Jetta, civic, and between the 4 cars, the Forte has had the worst mpg.. Granted I warm my car n winter and only avg City 18 mp.. Hopefully 22 in the Spring... Otherwise car has been a Dream! It felt and still feels like quality, from its sleek design exterior/interior, To its amazing warranty! Its rough on bumps, but seats are comfy and the bumps just makes it feel TOUGH! Love the AUX/USB Ipod hookup! Plenty of storage..Traction Control is great in winter! Downside to buying LX is no Cruise.. Aftermarket $399 installed..Only have driven 1260 miles but very SATISFIED!
So many standard options for a compact
2010 Kia Forte SX - We were lucky enough to get the SX with all the options including the leather. This car is amazing. With times a little tougher my wife sold her 2003 Bmw M3 Convertible. We both love the car and the heated leather seats made the transition to this new car great. We drove 500+ miles to pick it up and it was fun to drive home after the purchase. It is almost unbelievable how this car has so many standard options on the base model. With the sirus radio and bluetooth radio it makes it even easier and very fun to drive. The car handles very well at 80 and seems to stop very good. The ride is smooth until you hit small pot holes, then the car feels a little ridged.
