Used Kia Forte for sale near Atlantic Highlands, NJ under $899,990

Héctor was the best sales rep I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with and got the best deal possible. Definitely recommend. Ask for hector!

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.

Sales person was ultra friendly and personable. We were able to relate to each other on many aspects. The purchasing process was pleasant with no pressure. The sale went smooth and dealer was accommodating. I was given a great deal of time and was shown many in-stock vehicles.

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 leased a car from Kia with Jorhan Sanks and the experience was totally excellent! The service at the dealership was great 👍🏽. The car runs beautifully and the price came out exceptionally decent. I’ll be recommending this dealership and car dealer to as many people as I can that serious about buying or leasing! Mr. Sanks is by far the best hands 🙌 down!!!!!!

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

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!

I recently purchased a car from C-Rich, and the service was exceptional. When I booked my appointment, they told me to be prepared to drive off with my dream vehicle, and they made it happen. The dealer was professional, knowledgeable, and made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. Educators, go get your dream car from C-Rich – you won’t be disappointed!

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.

I highly recommend this location to anyone. Another great experience at Difeo Kia!!! Our service advisor Jen is AWESOME!!! Excellent customer service, friendly, and she keeps us informed about our vehicle needs. THANK YOU to Jen and the service department! I’ll be returning for my next service.

Everything was done perfectly and accurately no problems job well done would use you’ll again

Great cars great salesmen Adam is the man Very professional , I got the car I wanted and for a very good price ,Adam makes sure you get what you ask for!

My experience was sincerely great, I dont usually write reviews but I had to for this one. This was my first time purchasing a vehicle, Damien and Serge made it super comfortable and worth it for me. There was a slight issue in the beginning of the process however. Damien did all he could to accommodate me and actually ended up giving me a better deal for that I am thankful. Don't go anywhere else get your vehicle from them, everyone treat you so kindly and consistent with everything.

carlos was great thank you for all your help i will be back for any needed srvice

One of the best dealerships I have ever dealt with. Dan Girolamo was the most personable, non pushy, professional Sales Consultant I have ever dealt with. Barry and the staff were all amazing. We were there for quite awhile but Dan constantly asked if we needed drinks, snacks and even offered to order a pizza. Wonderful experience. So happy with my new Kia Forte. Absolutely LOVE it.

Wow! What a great dealership this is. Shawna is fabulous always helpful courteous & goes the distance!!! My car was in for systems update & flat tire service dept wonderful & on time. I asked Shawna if someone could pick me up from work and bring me to DeFeo. She got somebody there and drove me to a dealership so my husband didn’t have to come out from Jackson wonderful and my driver was extra special too! Thanks for the whole team. They’re wonderful.

Service was great! They answered all my questions and gave me a warm and tasty coffee.

They have a great service, I love it, very good in the service. I recommend them

Top tier staff. Stellar service dept knowledgeable technicians even the valleys are amazing. Would recommend 10/10

I had a great experience working with Simon. Normal negotiations but he went out of his way to be helpful. Had everything ready for next day pick up and did a good job showing me key features.

I have dealt with Matt in the service department a few times over the past five years. He is very competent and patient he is sooo nice a pleasure to deal with. I would highly recommend DiFeo Kia to all my friends and family.
