Used Kia Optima for Sale in Decatur, AL

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

This car has EVERYTHING! I purchased the EX with the Premium package and there's not really much more I could even think of putting into a car... maybe massaging front seats? That's really it. I bought this car primarily for commuting in and out of the city and I don't even mind sitting in traffic anymore. I just slide open the sunroof, turn up the music, pop on the ventilated front seats, and take my foot off the gas while the stop and go cruise control deals with the congestion. The only gripe I really have with the car is that it's slow to accelerate from a stop. The engine doesn't lack for power, but when you really need to make that turn before the next wave of vehicles blocks your path, there is about a 1 second delay after you slam on the gas before the vehicle will launch. Could definitely lead to an accident if you're not expecting that delay. Otherwise the drive is smooth and it accelerates quickly afterwards. 100% recommend this car to any budget conscious techy.

Had a great experience today with Tyler Ratliff, sales consultant for Huntsville KIA. Although, Tyler knew that I was not ready to buy a vehicle at this time, he was very helpful in showing me a couple of vehicles and even test drove one. Thank you for your time and allowing me to look without feeling pressured to buy!

Very clean and fast, I can’t wait to do a long family trip in it. My oldest fell asleep after school after about 5 minutes

I searched specifically for a Ram 1500 with heated mirrors. What I received was a package 2nd to none, with a monthly payment that fit the package offered me. From the initial contact with Champion Auto group in Athens, Tn, to the final good bye, I was most impressed with the "personal commitment" from my Sales Agent, Michael Wooldridge. I was not pressured on the initial contact with Champion Auto group, but a guarantee to me to locate that particular Truck. While enroute to Champion in Athens, Al, it was comforting to receive a phone call from Michael, updating me to the progress of the selection I had made, and to see that I was ok, and directions to the dealership if I needed them. Upon arrival at Champion Auto group in Athens, Al, I was greeted by The Champion Team who knew my name, the hospitality was awesome, offering a warm cup of coffee, and the area to go to freshen up from the Tennessee drive. Michael took a personal interest, giving me confidence that this purchase was an investment that I would really treasure. The smoothness of the paperwork process was like none like I have experienced. Personal commitment from every phase of the paperwork process. As the deal was closed, my paperwork handed to me, the final hand shake, I was impressed on my visit to Champion Auto Group in Athens, Al, I knew when I shook Michael Wooldridge's hand for the final time, he was sincere when He told me, "Cary, feel free to contact me for any concerns you may have on our deal today". Talk about memories made for a lifetime, and a return in the future.

The OPTIMA 2015 was a good car to own for me. The look and color was right, driving the car felt sexy with speed, I saved a lot of money on gas. BUT, the passenger seat was too low. NEEDED the SEAT Lumbar support and Seat Cushion Height. OVERALL NICE CAR TO HAVE. PS The maintenance plan was Affordable

Being that it had been 11 years since I last purchased a vehicle, I was very nervous about purchasing a new/used one. From the moment I walked into the store, Gabriel made me feel very comfortable. He was professional, knowledgeable, and personable. He asked questions to find out exactly what I was looking for in a car and then provided options that fit my interests and budget. I expected to maybe drive off in a used but low mileage car or suv; instead, I drove off in a brand new 2018. I am highly satisfied with my purchase and will be back when I'm ready to go through the buying process again (in a few years). Thanks Gabriel!!!

Lexus options at a Kia price and 36MPG!! 73,000 Miles since new and not one repair. Incredible value for the money! I have owned Three Kia's and loved them all.

I went to Landers McLarty DCJ to get my 2015 Grand Jeep Cherokee serviced. It was an early morning, so (while I waited) I took a low-threat walk around the lot....I'm not a fan of vulture-like salesmanship. I had been considering trading in my truck for a second Grand Cherokee, and had found one online that was supposedly on the lot. I couldn't physically locate it though, so I poked my head into the salesroom floor to ask about it. Even though it was 45 minutes before they opened, Joe Ashbury readily introduced me to Josh Craig. I gave Josh the VIN of the vehicle I was curious about, and he located it and postured himself to transport me to the location. I declined, and simply gave him the trade-in amount and terms I was looking for. I provided a contact number. I was pessimistic. I anticipated a call later on to the tune of "Boy do I have a deal for you" only to overshoot my terms by a ridiculous amount. Much to my surprise, I received a call from him that same day with terms that were better than I had requested. He and Joe had worked closely with the local banks and saved me thousands. I came in the next morning and we sealed the deal in less than an hour. Mr. Pickett in the Business/Finance office was a true professional, and gave me a great deal on GAP insurance that I would have thought was unaffordable. At Landers McLarty, synergy exists, and the employees work as one unit...it isn't a "this is the salesman's job" and "this is the finance personnel's job"...they communicate with each other along the way. It saved me from explaining my wants time and time again. I wish I would have purchased my 2015 Grand Cherokee from them....the experience I had when I procured it from one of the other "leading" Jeep dealerships in Norther Alabama was a far cry from how I was treated at LMDCJ. My only "complaint" is that I wished they could have coughed up the $286 to throw in one of those cargo security covers for the (I asked the guy back in parts how much one would cost....I didn't get his name, but he was really helpful too). It would be the difference between me giving the transaction a "10" versus a "9". That may be worth it to them though. Again...and excellent experience.

Very reliable car, good on gas, plenty room, drives good. Very comfortable, easy to handle, takes the road good, have to watch speedometer. Just an enjoyable car.

Ben met us in the parking area and from there I test drove several cars until we got in the Soul. From then on I knew this was it. Then I met Ben's brother Corey who prepared the paperwork. I have to say I was apprehensive about the $amount. Corey immediately sensed my uneasy feelings and walked out of the room then was back in about two minutes. My uneasy feelings vanished at what he had to tell me. I left there a very grateful and blessed buyer. This was the best car buying experience I've had in my many years of car buying. I am one happy and satisfied customer. Thank you Ben and Corey. And while there I got to meet Arthur but not his son. Their commercials are what made me want to check out University KIA. They are true to their word. Awesome!

This car is awesome. It has pretty much everything I wanted. The only thing is there is not a charger port in the back seat of the vehicle.

Warranty service, in and out in about an hour to change out the computer. Customer seating is in the showroom. Don't try the pressure sales tactics of other dealers I've used, trust their word above the others.

Car met everything I was looking for, great price, very solid feel to vehicle, very sporty looking . Interior is very nice combination of new style and basic functionality.

We are repeat customers. They do not pressure you into buying something and allow you extended test drives. They want you to be happy when you leave

Pick up is good, looks good, radio is okay. This vehicle doesn't show its years! Air is still ice cold! I feel good in this car and it has excellent safety ratings.

It was my first time to go to a dealership and test drive a vehicle. (I had purchased exclusively from individuals, so I was a little apprehensive, expecting "high pressure used car dealer" cliche tactics.) I made an appointment with Julie Gallow to test drive 2 pre-owned Chrysler T&C vans. Julie was engaging, friendly, professional and made the experience far less intimidating than I would have imagined it could be. She was well prepared, had all the information I needed for both vehicles. As a result, I bought the vehicle for which I'd been searching: a 2015 Chrysler T&C Platinum van! Don Alexandria explained the warranty possibilities and I wound up purchasing one for my pre-owned van. Gave me peace of mind and, essentially, a new car (at far less than new price!) Enjoyed visiting with Don and left feeling I'd met a friend The van is amazing and the follow up from Julie since my purchase has been amazing, too. Well worth the drive from Mentone to Huntsville!

I am a big and tall guy 6'5 and I had plenty of leg room in the 2019 Kia optima. I am a tech guy so I love all the tech features in the New kia optima and the panoramic roof is nice! The engine has get up and go and it's a 4 cylinder! Roomy trunk, just a great car
