Value for the Buck

Mercedes and Lexus need to look min their rear view mirror KIA is close behind in value, options and far ahead in warranty.

The best car I've owned.

My car and kia has really impressed me. Kia is the best of the best. I never thought of kia of being a top of line but it has definitely been better than my BMW and Chrysler. I'm so happy with my choice and would recommend everyone to give kia a try and let them impress you as much as they have me.

Best trade in by far!

Awesome car which I've been wanting for so long. Has everything I need and more for myself and my daughter! And the one on the way! Safety features galore which put me at ease. I will no doubt enjoy this car not just because it's got anything you can think of but because it's a good deal you can't beat!

Great Value

Meets my needs; adjust well to a person like me that has a small statue. I can actually see over the stirring wheel, because the seat rise up.
