Used 2004 Kia Spectra Sedan Consumer Reviews
Best value compact sedan
This new Spectra rocks. I needed a small econmic car for commute rather than driving my Suburban everyday. I got the most for my money compared to Mazda 3, Civic, Corola, and Elantra. It cost thousands dollors less with lots of standard features like side curtain air bags. This is a very important safety feature for me because I have two kids. It handles good on the freeway and the engine is powerful enough for the size. The body design looks good and the interior offers a large passenger space.
Decent car
I bought this car thinking good gas milage and so far I was wrong. Kia says 25 in city 34 on highway. I'm lucky to get 24 on the highway. Interior design is great and has way more power than the Rio.
Not A Bad Car For The Price
I dont care what anyone saids about Kia I think the spectra is a good car for the price.
Safety Warning!
I have a safety warning for petite people or anyone who loves a petite person. The 2004 Kia Spectra has an airbag sensor for the front passenger seat that has a lower weight sensitivity limit of 125 pounds, which means the airbag may not engage during an accident if anyone who weighs under 125 pounds is sitting in that seat. Unfortunately, the local Kia dealership didnt forewarn me of this situation before I bought the car, and a Kia company consumer affairs representative stated that there is nothing we can do to fix the condition. So, buyer beware!
Great car, Great price
Great car, runs smooth. Very quiet ride with lots of room and safety features for my family. For the price, I could not have asked for a better car.
