Used Kia Forte LXS for sale near Pasadena, TX

Great experience buying from EchoPark! Will was very helpful and patient helping us to compare several vehicles and make sure we got what worked best for us. This is the 3rd time we have bought a car from EchoPark and it was the best experience yet.

I bought my Forte LXS in Feb of 2024 and i've driven 9,000 miles on it so far. it's been great and i prefer this over a Corolla or a Camry. on the highway i sometimes get fuel economy in the low 50's mpg and on average i get around 37 mpg combined. not bad at all. i bought this for $21K after taxes and registration. the value can't be beat imo.

First time love it and the service was fast and reliable customer service was great one thing they need is breakfast in the morning like donuts

I own a very nice car, I like it very much, the handling is great I would recommend it to everyone good price performance good

My service advisor was very professional and knowledgeable. The waiting area was clean and useable, bathrooms clean. My overall feeling was they care about customers

I love my kia forte. I got the top tier kia Forte with leather seats which heat and cool and also a sunroof. This car is very comfortable! It is a little on the pricey side for my top tier one, but in the long run it is worth it.

Friendly service, good deals on used cars. Great customer service and good cars. The only dealership I've been too where I felt like the dealership wasn't running a scam on me.

It's too soon to tell how reliable this car will be in the future. However, at just one-month-old, it fits all my wants and desires. I love the interior, its comfort, and the extras that are in this car. The controls on the steering wheel make it safer while driving. The navigation system replaces all maps that I have on my phone and it helps to have the speed limit posted on the navigation read-out. This is my fourth Kia and I have never been disappointed.

The dealer was knowledgeable and patient. He showed us multiple cars and went over the differences between them which helped us make the best choice.

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!

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.

This is our 3rd purchase with Dominique from Ron Craft. We won?t be going anywhere else. He is patient, knowledgeable, helps when we bring him a mess to clean up from purchasing elsewhere. Everyone is there is great to work with from sales to finance and service.

I am writing to share my highly satisfactory experience with Pinnacle Credit Specialist. Like many, I was struggling with a low credit score and unsure of how to effectively address the complex issues on my report. My search for solutions led me to an online discussion forum where I encountered numerous positive reviews about Pinnacle Credit Specialist and their ability to resolve credit related challenges. Initially, I was skeptical. However, after reviewing the testimonials, I decided to contact them via email. My credit situation was quite poor, with scores of 469 (TransUnion), 481 (Equifax), and 513 (Experian). Furthermore, my profile was negatively impacted by credit card debt, a student loan, and tax liens. I specifically inquired if they could address my profile across all three credit bureaus. Their team responded immediately and confirmed their capability to assist. They provided a clear explanation of the process and requested certain personal information necessary to review my credit profile and develop a strategy. I provided the required details, and they proceeded with the work. The results were remarkable. Pinnacle Credit Specialist successfully increased my FICO score to an excellent score of 802 [Experian], 809 [Equifax] and 812 [TransUnion]. Furthermore, they were able to have the eviction, credit card debt, student loan, and tax liens removed from my credit report. This comprehensive improvement has had a significant positive impact on my financial standing. I am extremely grateful for their professional and effective service. Pinnacle Credit Specialist has proven to be a reliable source, and I do not hesitate to recommend their services to others facing similar credit issues. They can be contacted via email at: pinnaclecreditspecialist@gmail.com/ Don't fail to let them know I referred you.

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.

I love my car! Can’t believe I was able to get my dream car. Thanks for Josue

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 service, Mariana and Austin were really helpful in the process of getting a new car and trading in another

I was very pleased with the purchase, everyone was very agreeable and understanding of me situation. Even shipping the truck out of state was a breeze! I would shop there if you are in the Houston area, and travel there if you're not. I was able to complete my transaction entirely online and still got great service. Out Standing!!

I’ve had my Kia now for 3yrs and only had little major thing go wrong which the dealership handled the issue as a decent time I guess. The first few months of having my Kia during the winter here the car would t push botton to start and boy was I pissed off. I kept having to jump start it then it dawned on me on me that they gave me a dead battery! Which was taking care of with warranty thank God! Other then that issue my model Kia forte got-line wasn’t equipped with a decent sound system I guess the package I thought it would’ve had But! Not! and to replace a aftermarket radio will cost a pretty penny to get done. My tires 17” OEM they feel on the wobbly side while driving 50-70mph on the Hyway! while hearing the sounds from outside in the inside of the car which sucks. But it’s power it gets up to speed especially in Sport Mode! The exterior looks good and interior is good also but I’m a pit in some work on it soon. I wish I would’ve known about the Kia Gt though (manual) speed before test driving my Kia gt line lol. My overall about this Kia it’s worth the price as well the experience to drive and to owne one!

Loved it nice clean cars very happy with my purchase and car it’s beautiful

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.

The service here is constantly great and recommend this dealership to everyone I can. Just has that friendly family environment. Give them a try you will be glad you did

I love this car. It looks great. All the tech and safety features are through the roof cool. So far it has been super reliable. This is my first car that is not American made and I love it.

Roman was fantastic! He made a stressful process so seamlessly. Thank you for being your wonderful self and for helping me and my cooky momma!

I’ve had my Kia for 20 months, am leasing the car. I like that it’s got a sporty look, rides smooth and has lots of great features! Hope to keep or get another one somewhere down the line.

Roman was fantastic. Beyond kind and extremely pleasant. Thank you, Roman, for helping my daughter!

Freaking sweet ride! Dude! Kia has succeeded in yanking the domestic market from our U.S. produced or rather , assembled vehicles! Love the Kia forte GT 6 speed! Awesome!

Recently just traded my Kia Forte in for something newer. I work with Abby and Jose and they were very easy to work with. They understood what I was looking for and made sure I walked out with what I wanted. I highly recommend buying from Community Kia in Baytown. Ask for Jose or Abby when you arrive and they willl take care of you‼️

Great experience! Very responsive and professional. Great customer service, nice dealership and really good deals.

Ever Rodriguez made it an amazing experience and I'm so grateful. Will recommend this place to anybody that needs a car!

I drive the 2023 Kia Forte GT Manual, and I couldn’t recommend this car more!! The only complaint I have is now that I’m trying to find a new car with a more fancy name to impress clients, I can’t find anything I enjoy nearly as much. The car is built on a BMW M3 chassis, has the luxury features and interior to match with an average combined fuel mileage of 34mpg and the reliability of a newly redesigned Kia. It handles phenomenally well and is unmatched within its price point. It loses value quickly (until the general population realizes their tech and reliability recently surpassed Toyota and Honda) so buy a used 2023 or 2022, and you’re smooth sailing. I drove this car from Philadelphia to Los Angeles and was complimented by strangers in almost every city I stopped in along the way!
