Honda of Santa Maria review

Antonio from the Santa Maria Dealership was an immense

Antonio from the Santa Maria Dealership was an immense help with purchasing my new vehicle. He was very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions and more. He was very helpful in finding the car that I most liked and helped me pick out the deal that was best suited! 10/10 would work with him again.

2022 Kia Forte LXS review

I drive the 2023 Kia Forte GT Manual, and I couldn’t

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!
