Used 2023 Kia Forte for sale near Gresham Park, GA

I went into the dealership with very high hopes but very low expectations because I have some severe credit issues. Joseph Franklin greeted me at the door. He was very friendly and gave off a great vibe. During my appointment, people were pulling at him left and right from constant phone calls to in house interruptions. He handled every distraction with extreme patience and professionalism. Even though I couldn't get into the car that I had chosen online, Joseph showed me several options and made the process so pleasant. I walked out of there with a car that I really like and that suits my needs. Joseph is an awesome sales person and a definite asset to DriveTime.

Bought the vehicle new in October of 2023. Now it’s March of 2025. Have yet to have an issue🤞though have heard of common problems many have had. I’ve put roughly 20 k miles on the car in a year and a half (mostly interstate driving). Technology package is lovely and the vehicle has an overall stylish feel. It’s important to keep in mind, though, that you’re buying a 20k dollar vehicle from 2023. It’s plastics galore in there, so, though stylish, the material quality isn’t the best. If you’re someone who takes care of your things, you shouldn’t have an issue! Use the maintenance schedule found in the Owner’s manual and this vehicle should get you where you’re going for a reasonable amount of years. That being said, if you’re trying to decide between and LX[S] and GT (not including GT-Line), choose the GT. Though you’re paying a little extra, you get a standard transmission with real gears (the car has more power than you’d think too) rather than the CVT found in the LX[S] (and GT-line). CVT tech has greatly improved within recent years, but they’re still known to be problematic at times. All in all, this generation of Kia seems to be more reliable than most previous gens. Definitely a real deal competitor with the carolla/civic and worth the consideration!

Fast, efficient, and reliable service. Jay at DriveTime Morrow GA is a leader in the business! Thanks for all of your help I will refer more customers your way!

Bought a 2023 forte gt-line for my daughter. We have had the car for 13months and have driven about 12,000 miles. I honestly cannot believe the 1star reviews, nor should you. I was a loyal Honda fanboy for over 30 years before I bought this Kia. I bought a totally loaded Forte non turbo for a hair under 25k with a crazy good warranty. Why not? I figured. 13 months and 12k miles later it rides better, has more power and is quieter than the day we bought it! Zero issues with anything. No squeaks, rattles or interior flaws. Sadly no tire wear. I cannot wait to replace the Kuhmos it came with. It handles great and is fun to drive. My wife calls it “a peppy little thing”. And she drives a CX-5 turbo or my 5.7 liter ram. Over 40 mpg on highway and mid 30s driving around town. This is a fine car. Not a cheap version Hyundai. Much nicer IMHO than the Hyundai. For those knocking the resale… run the numbers and try to buy one as cheap as you say you sold yours for. The Harmon Kardon stereo sounds awesome! This is one of my favorite purchases because its value continues to surprise me. And they give a $500.00 military discount. Don’t buy based on my opinions go test drive one! Test drives are free. Go to carvanna or get on car gurus and see how cheap you can buy one a year or two old used one for.

Great first car buying experience not pushy listened to what I wanted and allowed me to choose what I wanted. They had very friendly Vibes and helped me out a lot I definitely recommend buying from here for all my first time buyers

I purchased my GT turbo - automatic in 2021 as 2022 model and my only regret was that didn’t wait for the cooling seats package. Great looking vehicle with above average performance and great fuel efficiency. It’s one of the best affordable sports sedans in the market and one of the few where you can actually fit a 6’ adult in the backseat. I’m looking to add another with my desired package soon.

Mr. Klause was my sales guy and HE WAS AWESOME!! No haggling. I told him what I wanted. I told him my budget and he made it happen!! I'm driving my dream car! Ms. Anita was AWESOME too at signing! I'm truly grateful and God blessed me real big!! Thank you Carmax Stockbridge! Thank you Mr. Klause and Ms. Anita!!

Bought my Forte Gt line at Mathews of Blakley Kia, great salesman ship, i had Dylan, he was very knowledgeable. My Forte is beautiful paid under 23000. and got a car with alot of options other dealers would have charged you for looks great and performs well, i have read other reveiws that slam the kia brand but they have come a long way

Great experience at CarMax Southlake! Thank you Scott for all that you did to make our buying experience easy! We were in and out in 2 hours with our CX-9! I would definitely recommend this dealership to anyone looking for an honest, easy experience.

I bought this vehicle in February of 2023. I have approximately 9,000 miles on it and it has performed flawlessly. It is very easy to drive and gets great gas mileage. Mine is Red (currant red) with black interior.

Good, everyone is not aware of the different types of vehicles that you sale and service but everything went well and I got my car back on time

Kaley was very helpful. I was scheduled for a test drive but, I was hospitalized for an ongoing health issue. I will do business with the dealership in the future.

All Calavan personnel were very professional! Very impressed with teamwork approach and follow through given to the transaction process.

I recently purchased a 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid from Ed Voyles Kia in Smyrna, GA, and I cannot say enough about the fantastic experience I had working with Isaac DaSilva. From start to finish, Isaac went above and beyond to ensure I was completely satisfied. Isaac’s extensive knowledge about the vehicle was impressive. He answered all of my questions with confidence and clarity, making the decision process so much easier. During the test drive, he was attentive and thorough, helping me fully understand the features and benefits of the Carnival Hybrid. The negotiation process, which is often stressful, was anything but. Isaac was patient, courteous, and truly focused on finding the best deal for our family. He treated us with respect and professionalism throughout, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable. As a former Honda customer, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Isaac’s exceptional service has made me a Kia fan. Thanks to his efforts, not only did I leave with the perfect vehicle for my family, but I also left with a sense of loyalty to this dealership. I will certainly be recommending Isaac and Ed Voyles to friends and family, and I look forward to considering Kia for future purchases. Thank you, Isaac, for setting a new standard for excellent customer service! Henry Ventura

Mr. Foster and his team made my car buying experience as seamless as possible. They were patient and took the time to listen and answer all questions. For anyone looking to purchase a car (new or used) I recommend stopping by Stone Mountain Nissan.

About two weeks ago, I found a Lexus RC 350 at CarGurus and I stopped by for some window shopping and ran into Lou, who was helping another customer at the time. Even though the showroom was busy, He took the time to greet me and reassured me that someone would be with me shortly. That simple gesture really stood out and made me feel valued, even before I made a decision. After doing my research, I decided to return to ALM Marietta, and I'm so glad I did! I had the pleasure of working with Lou again, and I also had the chance to meet some fantastic folks in both the management and finance team.

Easy to comprehend when on the website . Not too much words and letters to get stressed. Not hard to select your choice of car/truck/van...

I am very grateful that I found this place when looking for the car few month back. Khan was very nice and patient with my numerous requests and helped me found the car I was dreaming about for a good price! Excellent service! Thank you!

We love Lenny and Tom- every buying experience we've had with them has been a smooth one. I've been purchasing g vehicles from Lenny for over 20 years.

Great customer service very helpful staff very impressed recommend to others excellent service and good advice

Kevin Shaw was an awesome salesperson, no rush no pressure. Great dealership. No up selling of any kind, listen to what I wanted and made it happen.

Excellent price and service. I have sent several friends and family to Rick Case too.

After the horrifying wreck I thought I could never love another car like the last one. Then the fabulous sales staff at Carmax Kennesaw helped me find My beautiful Chrysler 200. She purrs like a kitten and handles like a dream. I couldn't be happier.

We have had multiple great experiences with this location. Steve, a sales manager was great and so helpful! We had mechanical issues with one of our cars and they took it back within the 30-day warranty with no issue!! I highly recommend this CarMax location for your car buying purchases!!

I would purchase from them again in a minute. Very good vibe. They all obviously have a great culture there. It rubs off on the customers. Good value for the money.
