2010 Kia Forte Koup

Good car and fun to drive. The exterior is very nice and the interior looks nice but the material doesn't look like it will last very long. There are some issues:1) The sun-roof is very noisy and bounces around when hitting a bump. 2) Air condition doesn't feel cold enough especially on a hot 100 degree day.3) There are leaks in the floor board or door that is causing mold to grow on the passenger floor mat. Kia cannot figure out the problem. They just bandage the problem by trying to kill the mold that eventually comes back. Make sure you check yours!4) Gears shift hard unexpectedly.5) Alignment/tires wear down in the inside of tires & change tires after 20k miles. Bluetooth/addressbook bad

I've had my Coup for just a little over 2 months. I still love walking out to the parking lot at work and seeing my baby. Even better when I get in to enjoy the drive home. I have had so many compliments on this car as well. It feels like I should have paid much more for it. The acceleration is great on this car! I need to be careful though, I have tendency to want to go faster than what the speed limit is because it's so fun to drive! Oh, and the gas mileage is awesome! The way this car drives and performs it feels like shouldn't be so efficient. And my teenagers actually don't mind being seen with me in this car racy red car. :)

Picked up my Kia 2 weeks ago. I waited untill the dealer could locate a triple black 2 door koup. I moved out of a Volvo S60 turbo so I was used to the speed and handling. I wasn't expecting too much, but after driving the car and putting on the first 1000 miles, I was pleasantly surprised. This car is a winner for what it is. Over time the brand will make improvements so I hope that it won't loose too much value. The service guys I spoke with all said that the car surprises them with what little goes wrong. Lets hope they're right. so far, so good.

Been driving my Koup for about 3 weeks now and I must say that this is a nice car. The build quality is very good with no squeaks or rattles yet. The 2.4L engine is quite peppy and the 5 speed automatic transmission is responsive. The radio sounds very good for a base system and the standard Sirius satellite radio makes it very enjoyable. The cloth sport seats are comfortable and seem to be high quality. There are a few details that show where cost cutting was implemented such as no real carpeting in the car. The floor is covered with some type of fuzzy material, although carpeted floor mats are standard. Also, the silver parts of the alloy wheels are actually plastic inserts.
