My Kia meets and exceeds all my expectations. For the last 14 years I have been a Toyota Camry Customer and I didn't think I would EVER like anything else until I drove my Kia, this car has all the bells, whistles and performance I need at a great price.
Too good to be true

I chose the Optima over about 20 other models I looked at. The value is incredible. I paid 20 percent less than a comparable Japanese car and 10% less than American. I liked the car when we bought it. I like it more after 10,000 miles - I can't say that about many cars I've bought. I am extremely impressed with this car. Other than it's sibling the Sonata, nothing else comes close.

The only problem we had with our Optima was a passenger side window that would get stuck if you closed the door with the window open. After the second trip to the dealership this problem was solved. We also had concerns with the was the transmission shifts. We were told that since the car was a demo, that the electronic transmission never had a chance to "learn" the drivers' preferences. I would like a little more pick-up but other than that the car has been a great buy. I wish we had waited one more year to buy though. The 2003 has the Infinity stereo, a garage door opener, and auto dim rear view mirror, all standard.
Great Car

yeah, the car is inexpensive. obviously much cheaper than a comparable camry or accord. but you get what you pay for. the engine is louder than the accord and camry. tranny is slow to respond in sportronic mode but okay in full automatic. seats are good enough for the price. the styling is good though. if you trust the koreans, why not?
