My Sassy Optima
The best thing about this car is what it looks like. Flashy, elegant and affordable. The gas consumption is a 7 out of 10. Poor quality interior fabric. Threads coming undone. Stains very easily. This car is so great to look at. I have not needed any service except oil changes and regular maintenance. That’s impressive for a car that now has over 100,00 miles The cloth seats are the worst as stated above. I’d buy another but with leather seats It’s front wheel drive and I was stuck 5 times in the winter. It couldn’t roll forward on an icy flat surface. Just spun it’s wheel. I want to keep the car because it has an impressive appearance. But I’ll be trading it before winter. So very bummed

Beautiful car but poor mileage.
I love the looks of the car but feel the mileage is poor for a mid sized car,

Not a bumpy ride, but should be quieter.
Three problems come to mind with this vehicle, though I do enjoy it. Passengers in the front seat complain that the seat is too low and cannot be adjusted. Riding on a highway is not a quiet drive. Had the Cadenza prior this this vehicle, and it had better insulation. The front end of this model is very low in the front. It is great looking, but have hit the front passenger-side bumper on curbs several times. These are the only three drawbacks. Less important to me: it gives me approximately 19 miles to the gallon in every day driving. If this is vital issue, I would get something that guzzles less fuel.

2015 Kia Optima
Over all decent car. The passenger seat does sit low. Decent gas mileage. Do like the heated and cooled seats especially in the summer time for the cool vented seats. Overall I do like the way it drives and handles and it does seem like a very well built vehicle.
