The car is worth the price. Shop around for best pricing. Don't settle, get the options you want.

Almost perfect

My 2016 LX+ in four years gave me only one lost day on a ECU recall. So it would only say the things that I do not like about this car: 1. The noice from the road is very loud. 2. The 2.4l engine is not the fastest in it's class even tho, it "drinks" gas as one.. 3. Suspensin is more on the sport side. Everything else: the design, material quality, features, it is almost perfect.

Love the Optima it’s a spacious car plenty of legroom front and back. Drives fast and smooth. You can’t beat the warranty on the Kia.
