My Kia K5 GT is awesome!

This car is stunning in person. I went with the sapphire blue.. Looks badass and the interior is sweet with comfortable leather seats and an IPad-sized display screen. Let me tell you something.. the GT has a serious set of b***s under the hood. Great smooth ride. A++

I commute everyday and needed a car thats good on gas, but switches lanes fast. The K5 LXS was perfect for me! Even when its not on sport mode, it accelerates fast, sounds pretty bad ass and its not even the GT. I've had a few cars tail gate me to see what the heck it is lol. Looks amazing and drives fantastic! Good job Kia.

VERY IMPRESSED

Before purchasing any vehicle make sure it's the one you want. I've searched for months trying to find the right one. Something keep leading me back to a KIA K5, when it came down to it. I finally realized that "this is my vehicle, I have to get it before someone else buys it". I'm in love with all the features, I still have to get used of it! But it's definitely worth it. Very affordable and very sporty looking.

Phenomenal Safety Features!

I went for the K5 because of the amazing safety, especially the autonomous braking. I have a 2 year old and safety was the most important feature to me when buying a new car. I wasn't completely sold on it until I was backing out of my parking spot and another car began to pass. The K5 braked for me and held the brakes until the car was out of the view! The over all ride is smooth, and I do a lot of driving. I chose the Gt-Line for the power seats and lumbar support. Even though I have black on black, the remote start does help cool the car down before I get in, and I live in sunny Florida! I have never owned a black car, and I can't say I regret it. Overall, this was the best choice for me. It checked all the major boxes, and it does not disappoint.
