I love my new car would trade for anything. I feel in love with all the features and the color. I'm so glad I had a cool sells man Mark to show the right car I was looking for. Kudos!!!

I love my new car!

This car is beautiful. It handles like a coupe instead of a sedan. I was hesitant to go back to a sedan, after having SUVs for the past 14 years. But the 2018 Kia Optima has such a sleek and beautiful look, a lot of horsepower, great features, side mirror alert, back up camera, anti- lock brakes, USB ports to play my digital music, not to mention I have my Android phone synced up too. No cd player, but, I have all my music saved on flashdrives. Wonderful car for a great value and my 120 pound yellow Labrador Retriever loves riding shotgun. ???

Great car!

I love this car. I was able to get premium features within my budget. Traded my Camry in for this. No regrets! Love the cooled seats.

Best car I?ve owned

This car is everything I?ve ever dreamed of. It has plenty of legroom in the front and back, the seats are comfortable to sit in, the ride is extremely smooth, and it looks pretty. The backup camera comes in handy when you are trying to parallel park or back into a parking space. It has a huge trunk and plenty of USB plugins throughout the entire car. I am very pleased with this car choice and definitely recommend it to anyone that is looking to get a new car.
