Used Kia Forte for Sale in Lexington, KY

My appointment was 9:30 am. I arrived at 9:27 am. The young lady behind the counter got my info & key - was friendly & very efficient. Told me I could sit in waiting room and she???ll let me know if anything comes up. Literally 15 minutes later I was walking out the door and leaving. Free coffee, water, snacks & super-fast friendly, efficient and knowledgeable service- can???t ask for more!

Bought this car a day ago and behind the wheel is peeling not to happy about this at all but love the outer look and the seats and drives great

Matt Cornett was a joy to work with during what is normally a stressful experience. He is not a high pressure salesman, and that really worked for me. He patiently answered all of my questions and was so helpful getting me the car I wanted. Strong Auto has been great about fixing the few minor things I noticed on the car and making certain that I drove off the lot a happy customer!

This is a pretty good car for the price. Fuel economy is very good. It performs well. I would consider buying another Kia if it was from a different dealership.

I just purchased a 2015 Infiniti from this dealership and it is my fourth one from them and I have always had great service and friendly personnel to deal with which made all my dealings very pleasant. I would recommend this dealership to anyone The service I got from Leonard and Michael was excellent. Will always be going to them for my future autos

This car is an awesome car with great features. I enjoy all the diffrent things it does it good on gas and has great power for speed. Very comfortable.

They put to rest all the rumors of ???used car salesmen???. I spoke with Candace on the phone who was very knowledgeable about their product, and she actually persuaded me toward the Kia. I thought I only wanted a Honda or Toyota, and I wanted to buy something around $10k so we didn???t have to finance. She was so informative that we actually decided to go with a 2017, she was passionate about what she was selling. Candace wasn???t working when we went over to look at the van. Adam was our salesman, and there was absolutely zero pressure from him on what vehicle to purchase. He was patient and down to earth, and answered ALL of my questions. After looking over the van, There was a tail light lens cover that had moisture in it, so he gave us an IOU, and stayed true to his word and called me 2 days later to have it replaced. I will be in the market for another vehicle (maybe 2) in the near future for my children, I will definitely consider returning to Kia. Also, Kenny Cross did our financing portion and he was honest and upfront about everything, and explained everything in a way so simple that a child could understand, he actually drew most of it out. He was very professional and humble, and we were blessed by meeting him and hearing his personal experience as to how the GAP insurance was helpful. This entire process was a great one, even if we do have a payment now, we feel confident we did the right thing.

Traded in a 2012 I had similar to this car for the 2015 version because I wanted a sunroof. I also liked the color and the fact that it was sporty. Got lots of compliments driving it, was comfortable an really hate to get rid of it because I liked it a lot but trying to purchase either a classic car or a motorbike for the summer plus I really could use the cash!

My first Infinity after three Lexuses. While satisfied with Lexus, I love my QX 50. Ride and handling is superior and for less money. Also, did not have to spend the whole day at the dealership to get the deal done. Would highly recommend Infinity of Lexington.

This car is amazing, it looks like a luxury car on the inside, drives really smooth, looks very sleek on the outside. It’s great on gas.. i love my car.

I normally don't leave reviews, good or bad, but this is an exception. I have bought quite a few cars in my day and this is by far the best experience I've ever had. Tony DeJesus was an absolute pleasure to deal with and I would and will recommend anyone I know to go through him to get a deal done. I know I will always give him a call when it's time to start looking again. Great job Tony and great job Don Franklin Mitsubishi for the outstanding buying experience! Chris

I love this car. Rides beautifully even at 75 on interstate. So economical. Comfortable. Great for the average family. Better than the Camry I owned.

We were beyond impressed with the customer service at this dealership. We had an issue with our financing, and instead of turning us away, they sent us home with the car so it could not be "bought out from under us" while they figured out the issue. The following day, the finance manager and the salesman (Warren) both followed up with me to inform me of what they were doing to solve the issue. Once the issue was solved and we came back in to start negotiating, the salesman was NOT pushy or demanding which was a refreshing change from other dealerships we have dealt with. They were also very kind and patient in dealing with us while my 4 year-old competed for their attention. Warren listened to our concerns, took notes, and got to work immediately trying to address and overcome our concerns. When it had reached the point where he couldn't do any more, he got the sales director, Bryan, involved instead of just expecting us to accept a deal we weren't happy with. Bryan went ABOVE and BEYOND anything I would have expected. My husband was ready to not make the deal, but Bryan brought him back from a "no" to a "yes" without any pressure and without asking him to come away from the terms he was asking for. Once the deal was made, the paperwork was processed very quickly, and they even filled our tank up before we left the lot. I will surely be going back to them if I ever have the need for another car. And, I recommend anyone who is tired of dealing with pushy salesmen who seem to just be in it to make a buck to definitely check out this dealership. They seemed legitimately concerned with making us happy and not just selling us any old car! I am a very demanding consumer, and I always cross my t's and dot my i's before I ever even step foot onto a car lot. They not only welcomed my questions and concerns, but helped me grow my confidence in the decision we were making by explaining all of the "behind the scenes" reasons for the negotiations they were able to flex on as well as those that they weren't. Their transparency, honesty, and patience make them an A+ dealership in my book!

We have not had theForte a little over a week. To this point the only issu is getting used to the layout of the controls. Being a creature of habit sometimes it takes w while to get used to something new but so far everything is great.

Staff and service was excellent!! Great snacks, drinks, comfortable waiting area. Everyone is SO nice, and understanding !! I would and have recommended Kia to several people, and I???ve always been a Toyota person. Kia has my business now! 😁

This car has everything I need. I love the integrate and hands-free features. It's very roomy. It has "get-up-and-go" when I want it, etc. I love it.

Tuesday my car was stolen I was lost honestly, but my son in law and daughter took me to kia and I am driving home in a brand new 2019 kia soul. I'm am so happy. Lincoln stoltz was my sales person and he was just amazing. He was very nice very helpful made us feel at home. He is definitely the sales person you want to see!

This car meet all my needs. Excellent customer services in the dealer Phil Smith Kia that give us a lot of previous information that made us feel a proud owner. It's just the right size, has very comfortable seats and is loaded with technology. Very quiet, and smooth

Excellent customer service, very happy with used car that you can't tell the difference between a new one. Enjoyable experience

I bought the lowest trim LX with 6 speed manual. The standard features are impressive. I use the heated seats and heated steering wheel almost every chilly morning. AC, PW,PL,Cruise, 8" touch screen,steering wheel controls, 4 wheel disk brakes,heated steering wheel and seats.....The tech in this ""base" model is unreal. I would have had to pay $7K more for a Corolla with the same features. Excellent value, design and well built. The interior is very nice with soft touch surfaces. The exterior is sporty. You won't be embarrassed to own this compact car. Kia Forte is a pleasant surprise and not a secret any longer for those who recognize value. Less moving parts under the hood because it's a non turbo. It'll run forever without issues and Atkinson cycle will save you gas . Good city run about and do not regret purchase.

Had an awesome salesman, not pushy or arrogant. Actually very nice and helpful! I would recommend anyone looking for a vehicle to check out Don Franklin I had a great buying experience

Love the lane assist, apple play ,three driving modes, easy steering and shifting, ride quality, low highway noise, best car I have ever owned for the money

I contacted Scott Boggess by phone as we live in St. Louis. MO 5 Hours from Gates Hyundai. Scott worked with me to immediately put a hold on the Hyundai Elantra GT on the showroom floor. My wife and I drove out the next day (Saturday) and bought the car after test driving it. Scott Dennis & Frank were all very helpful. We noticed how busy the sales team was. Not just folks with casual inquiries, but people doing paperwork and buying vehicles! The showroom was "no frills" (as in, we're saving you money) Obviously Scott and his team have the right formula at Gates Hyundai. No "Hard Sell" tactic's like American dealers. The long warranty was part of our decision to buy Hyundai as well. Our previous car was an 05' Aveo with 150,000 miles on it. We didn't even test drive Chevy's even though our car was reliable. We happened to rent a Hyundai Elantra in 2015 at Enterprise & made the decision then, when it was time to replace the Aveo we'd buy a Hyundai. I wish we lived closer so we could use Gates Hyundai for any required service.

I think I will have this vehicle for years. I love the way it drives and the feel of it. Thank you for the assistance

We were looking to purchase one vehicle only and instead left with two! Everyone was so patient with me and my family, I had my kids with me and Chris Walls was so patient and understanding. Customer service is beyond expectations and everyone went an extra mile to keep my us satisfied. Right from the beginning, Chris worked with our price range and was very patient bringing us cars to try so our kids (yong kids) wouldn't have to walk. He was able to get us two cars with a trade in that we owed money to within our price range. We were shocked when he said it was a done deal! There's a room in the back with drinks , food and games for kids and after purchasing two brand new vehicles and trading one in it was a much thanked feature of the dealer. Chris walls was able to make a great business for us and we are so happy!!! Thank you Chris !! We will surely do business with you when our leases are up and I will recommend you to anybody who is search of a new vehicle. Thank you again ¿

17 inch wheels give fairly rough ride the stock tires are not very good in the snow 2 inches deep Elaine control automatic turns off at just the wrong moment but works fine most the time mine seems to want to hug the right Side of the lane

This was the best car-buying experience that I've had so far. My previous vehicle had been totaled and I was dealing with the stress of that situation while also (thanks, Kentucky weather!) having a pretty terrible sinus infection. Brandon, Frank, and Buddy were all incredibly helpful and patient, answering all of our questions and providing an incredibly low-pressure buying experience. I never felt like there were any pricing "games" or like I couldn't have time to think through my decision if I had wanted it - and being sick, my patience was running low and any of those things probably would have driven me away. Having previously owned 2 Kias, I was a bit skeptical about switching brands, but my overall dealership experience was so much better than when buying my previous vehicles, that Gates has a new Hyundai convert. Not only is the vehicle fantastic, but I can't say enough good things about the staff at Gates. Thank you!

great mpg it is a good ride for such a small car I drive 100 miles a day and average 40 miles to the gallon driving in country at 55-60 mph

My old car was my third minivan in 15 years. Now that my kids are older and leaving for college, I wanted something that could carry 6 or 7 passengers but was ... well... NOT a minivan. I did some research on late model used three-row SUVs, and found the 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. (My favorite of my three vans was a 2005 Nissan Quest, so choosing Nissan was easy for me.) Before I started browsing for cars, I applied for credit through Carvana, and was approved. Next, I entered in all of the information about the van I was trading for the Pathfinder. (Beware -- the trade-in amount is only good for 7 days, and it can change wildly in that time!) I was pleased with the trade amount, and it was great that I could shop for my new car and see my down payment and monthly payment for every car I viewed! My specifications were pretty clear -- AWD, less than 10,000 miles, and never a rental car. I found my dream car a few days later, and started the purchase process. It was quite smooth and the directions were very clear about what documents need to be uploaded. When I went to click on "finalize purchase" (or something like that), a red flag popped up...my trade-in value expired WHILE I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF CHECKING OUT! I got on chat with Carvana staff right away, and they were able to return the trade in value to NEARLY what it was before the expiration. This is something that needs to be addressed by Carvana -- once a customer is to a certain point in the process, those numbers need to be frozen. So we set a delivery time, and the Carvana rep was pretty much on time considering he was traveling 70 miles or so from the Chicago office. Everything was smooth -- signed a couple more papers, took my Pathfinder for a spin, Eric inspected my trade, and I left within 30 minutes with my new car. I would also like to add that I drove directly to my mechanic, so he could inspect the car and make sure I wasn't buying something with hidden damage. Mechanic said to me, "This car is perfect, like new." Just what I wanted to hear. Thanks Carvana! I am telling everyone I know about you guys. Good to work with you! Janet - 2017 Nissan Pathfinder

I love my new car. My last car was a sorento and I was looking to save money and my new changed was perfect for that.

This is a review of my SELLING experience to Carvana. I listed my car on Craigslist and was approached by an outsider buyer named Jan. She introduced me to Carvana, which I never heard of before, and it's process. She was very helpful and walked me through the process. The first deciding factor for selling to them was that they offered me the best price (vs. CarMax, Auto Nation, Trur Car). Then I realized the process was super streamlined. All I had to do was upload my documents and, after approval, schedule an appointment for the pickup of my car. Carvana sent a truck to COME TO ME to pick up the car. The driver (Lauren?) was very courteous and pleasant to work with, too. The pickup process, which included a one-mile test drive, took no longer than 20-30 minutes. Immediately after loading my car to their truck, I was handed the check, which I immediately deposited without any issues. My selling experience from being contacted by buyer to getting the check took just 10 days! (Would've been even faster if I was more timely with uploading my docs.) I'd highly recommend Carvana for selling your cars!

Love the fuel economy of this KIA Forte the ride is nice comfortable and quiet it has all the standard features needed for a EX except cruise control and a spare tire would be nice instead of a inflation kit other than that it is a well liked vehicle I hope it gos 200K miles time will tell of the longevity of this Kia it will be well maintained and cared for

Buying through Carvana was one of the best transactional experiences ever! I shopped for several months, test drove several cars to understand the models and features I was looking for. Then, boom, the car that matched come up in my search and I pulled the trigger. Within minutes, I had a value on my trade-in, purchased the car, (to include a very well priced extended warranty), and arranged for financing it through the Carvana website. And, while that was a very easy, non pressure experience, what made it really special was the delivery. Rachel, the Caravan rep, called me the day before the delivery to confirm, then called while in route to be sure not to leave me hanging. She was right on time, professional, and extremely upbeat. I had a genuine feeling that her priority was not only to deliver the car and pick up my trade in, but it was to make the final part of my experience a pleasure as well. Rachel was extremely knowledgeable of the process and did an excellent job of assuring I was informed of the "7 day, no questions asked, test drive" as well as the final paperwork to be processed. A few signatures and the trade-in was her's and the keys to 2014 BMW 535 were in my hands.

this car you cant beat fuel mileage it gets it gets 38 to 45 mpg on a long trip we bought it one day and lift for virginia the next and we both love it
