Just bought the car on 12/05. So far the only "problem" is how to program the homelink to open my garage door. Very good build quality
Great car BUT.........

I bought an 04' Kia Optima EX 4 cyl. from a used car dealer in August of last year. This a GREAT car! I've been told it looks like from far away a Jag so I call it my Kia-Jag. Interior is great, power everything,leather, fog lights, wood grain, 6 speaker Infinity Sound system with a sunroof but I dont like the gas mileage. For a Kia I was thinking it was gonna be better but I should have done more research. 17/ city 23/highway was not what I was looking for, but hey you get what you pay for. Hope this was helpful
beware of 04 optima

I bought this optima in 2006 with about 22,000 miles. A friend, a kia service tech, said I would love this car. When used, the warranty only goes to 60,000 miles. After about 61,000 the air bag light came on, the cruise control and speedometer sometimes don't work and the transmission has gotten really rough especially in cold weather and on these cold spring mornings. It will have to be replaced. What started out to be a pleasure has started to become a nightmare.
Good Value

We have about 7500 miles on the 2003 which was purchased in October. There were a few things needing attention after delivery but the Dealer has been good about servicing. Its a six, fully loaded with the exception of ABS. We bought because of the warranty and low pricing.
Get it a try!

I have been toying with the idea of buying Korean. I like the tweeks made in the exterior design for the '04 Optima. The 6 cylinder moves out plenty fast enough for me to collect some pricey tickets. I am 6'1" and my only complaint is that my head is very close to the headliner in the car. The steering wheel needs to be telescoping for long legged people.
