i think this car is a good little car, there is a place for the cd's. what most dealers will call a tape holder is also a cd holder. some of the kias come with out a radio so u can get ur own and as far as speakers u can always change those out. overall i think its a decent car for the money ur paying and its got a nice look to it. its affordable for most and can be fun to drive (espcially with a manual!). i've driven almost 7000 mi in less than 4 months of having the car and i havent seenanything yet. and i dont have any special features.
eh... it's good for the price

It gets me where I need to go. No major problems. The only bad part is the standard interior is not fun. No automatic door locks, windows etc. Other than that, it's not too bad for the low price.

I have owned my Kia Spectra for one year now and for the price, you can't beat it. Sure there were a couple of minor issues, however, I'm not sure why everyone has expected so much from a car with such a low price sticker. Basically, you get what you pay for. I'm very satisfied with the quality of my Kia and when it comes with a 10 yr, 100,000 mile warranty and 30 mpg on the highway, I can't complain! You won't go 0 to 60 in 1.2 so if you want that type of performance, write the check! I certainly would recommend a Kia to anyone who wants a sporty looking vehicle to get them from point A to point B.
Spectra's are POS

I purchased my Spectra in July of 2003. I have had so many things wrong with it since I got it. Right now my clear coat is coming off my car. They are not a good car in the winter because they are so lite. The total amount of time I have taken my car in to get fix in the short time that I have had this car is seven. They might have a good warrenty on it but they wouldn't need to if they made a good car. I know many other people who own a 2002 Spectra and one had to but a new motor in it at 44,000 miles and another one has to get a transmission in the car. No wonder why these cars are cheap.
Big Value

Koreans are trying hard to nitch their way into the Japanese market. The 2002 Spectra is a vast improvement to their initial attempts and seems to be on par with Hyundai. For the money, I couldn't find a better deal. I think Kia is doing what Honda did in the early 80's. I hope they succeed.
