Used 2023 Kia Forte for sale near Martin's Additions, MD

Always positive vibes. Service rep advises well of problem and resolution. Makes accommodations for service and support. Thank you for service. Toyota of Bowie great.

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!

This has been the best experience at purchasing a vehicle, my salesman was Lonnie and he was absolutely amazing and walked me through everything. I will definitely comeback again. Great job

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.

Jason was excellent. Kept me informed with the process every step of the way. Of the dealership that I have dealt with Eastern is the only one I would go back to.

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.

Terri Anistead was a warm, professional and wonderful salesman. I was impressed with the no mess no fuss flow of the overall process. I was able to say what I want to put down, what price range I want to stay in. Terri followed my ques and not the other way around. What a pleasure. I had a family member go through drive time and I was not sure if it was a good choice. I can see why they picked Drive Time. Thumbs up!

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

Our experience with Germantown Fitzgerald was very Friendly understanding and thoroughness … We went there with specifics of car wanted salesman Mr Ernest Marshal bless his heart assist us made it happened We were pleased with his homely warm experience , explanation, and suggestions in choosing our used car We highly recommend Mr Ernest Marshal for your needs at Gtown Fitzgerald Also Manager Julius was awesome!

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.

Carmax is by far the best company that will go the extra mile to help you reach your Hope's and dreams and they did. Thank you.

This weekend, I had the incredible opportunity to purchase a car from my long-time friend and his amazing team at District Auto Group. Working with Amir and Moe to acquire my 2021 Infiniti Q50 was truly a blessing. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted with a warmth and hospitality that made my son Joshua and me feel like part of the family. I must say it was the best experience I've ever had. Amir and his team went above and beyond to ensure that I found the perfect car. They listened to my wants and needs, answered all of my questions, and helped me find a car that I absolutely love. The entire process was seamless and stress-free, thanks to their expertise and professionalism. Walking out of District Auto Group with my new car felt like a dream come true. Not only did I drive away with a fantastic vehicle, but I also gained an extended family in Amir and his team. Their genuine care and dedication to their customers shine through in every interaction. I can't recommend them enough to anyone in the market for a new car. If I could give 100 stars I would!!! Thank you for providing me with such an exceptional experience! 🤗

Great service, good experience. Salesman knowledgeable, knows Ford trucks. Got me what I wanted quick.

I recently purchased a vehicle from Alexandria Volkswagen , and I cannot say enough great things about my experience with Ibrahim and Fasil. From the moment I walked in, they were friendly, professional, and genuinely interested in helping me find the right car—not just making a sale. What stood out the most was how patient and knowledgeable Ibrahim and Fasil were. They took the time to answer all of my questions thoroughly, explained every feature in detail, and made sure I felt completely comfortable with my decision. There was never any pressure, just honest guidance and support. The entire process—from the test drive to the financing—was smooth and stress-free, thanks to his dedication. I truly felt like I had an advocate working with me every step of the way. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond to make your car-buying experience a positive one, I highly recommend asking for Ibrahim or Fasil. I left the dealership with a car the confidence that I made the right choice, all thanks to his outstanding service.

Great place to deal with. Earnest was terrific. Would definitely recommend them! Check them out before you go anywhere else!

I commend DARCARS Customer Relations for speedy resolution of my remote start and service department issues. Once again thank you Customer Relations and a special thanks to Mr. Iman, Corporate Service Director.

The sales associate I working with was great, very accommodating as I had children with me. It was a bit difficult because they were renovating at the time I was there and they usually have a kids area. I?m sure it will be a little easier when everything is finished. The only slow part was actually signing the papers for the vehicle purchase because the business office was behind and what was originally predicted to me to take one hour took almost 2.5 hours.

Went to buy my son his first car the sales lady Julia and sales Mgr Mike, we’re awesome. Thank u for the experience and time.

Everyone here was super nice and very professional. The moment we arrived we were taken care of immediately. The process was simple and we drove off in the car the same day.

I bought a new RAV4 through Jerry Potts at Laurel, MD new Toyota lot. Great experience! Gave me straightforward honest info with zero pressure. Best buying experience I ever had, and a great price. I would do it again in a heart beat.

Lonnie is a great salesman. Helped me with the 2nd car I bought from Easterns Alexandria. 1st an Audi now a Tesla. Thank you Lonnie for Everything

Lori you very nice and kind with smiling face we are happy with your service Thank you very much 🥰🥰🥰
