I bought my 2006 Kia Optima used with 85,600 miles and i am now at 110,00 and it is honestly such a good, cheap, reliable, powerful, and cute car! I would buy another Kia Optima for sure.

Drives like a dream. Floats like a cloud and sips gas

I'm a Kia Fan!

We have had this car for about 9 months and it has been great. We even bought it from a car rental place! It has run great with no major mechanical issues. Occasionaly when its been a while since the last oil change it will be hesitant on the acceleration and the check engine light comes on, but once you change the oil its back to perfect. Now my wife and I are searching for an SUV and lets just say the Kia Borrego is high on our list! Kia makes quality cars and your not going to find anything more reliable than this for the price! I get 25-30 miles per gallon with a good mix driving of highway and city miles.
