One fine company
This car now has almost 170k miles.other than normal wear and tear and some recalls the car has been excellent. The real subject here is KIA . They have been a real stand up company. In my opinion KIA has had my back. KIA will be my next purchase

After having GM products for over thirty years, we
After having GM products for over thirty years, we decided; for various reasons that it was time for a change. Bobby Springer was a pleasure to do business with. He was knowledgeable, patient, and at no point were we pressured into “making a deal”. The rest of the staff that we we dealt with were also very professional and courteous.
Even if it’s used, buy one!
I’ve owned a 2012 Kia Optima EX GDi 2.4L engine. Hands down, best car I have ever driven! After 8 years of daily driving and 135,000 miles later, she still handles like the day I drove her off the dealership lot. Very comfortable leather interior, that even though is years old, has not one crack or tear! Shifts smoothly, brakes smoothly and still has some get up and go when I put my foot down. Very safe car- Prior to this I owned an ‘11 Optima EX that I got into an accident in. The side and front airbags left me unscathed! All in all, I’m glad I went with Kia. You can never go wrong with that Kia reliability!

Sales and Internet staff were super in arranging a test
Sales and Internet staff were super in arranging a test ride. No pressure. Easy going. Bought in the spot. Documentation staff made the buying experience simple and fast. Probably the best dealership in the world.👍🏼😊
Best Car I have ever owned
Drives great, lots of leg room in the back seat. The ECO option is nice for improved fuel economy. Reliable, never had any issues with the car except the plastic molding along rear window. That came out by a loose screw. That is the only change I would change is hope they improve those chrome strips and logos on cars to hold that chrome look better. My logo chipped and is almost al black now.

The real deal(ership)!
Who likes their used car purchasing experience? Me! I did. I am so happy to have gone through Kareem auto sales for my used car. From the sales person (thanks, Mike!) the financial advisor (you're the best, Moe!), to the owner (appreciate it, Sal!), everyone at Kareem Auto Sales made the process quick, easy, affordable, and positive. Highly recommend anyone looking for a car to purchase from Kareem Auto Sales!
Gas saver and great car
This car is honestly one of the best cars I’ve test drove yet everything was 100% with it I just can’t afford it at the moment if I had the money no hesitation I would have grabbed it!

I recently purchased a F350 and Russell was my sales
I recently purchased a F350 and Russell was my sales person. He went above and beyond, even came in on his day off, and helped me get into a vehicle that suited my needs. I didn't feel rushed while trying to decide if it was the right vehicle and he helped make the process very easy. He was very professional and polite and I would recommend him to my friends and family!
