The Amanti is an all-new full-size sedan from Kia geared to compete head-on with the likes of Toyota's Avalon and the Buick LeSabre.

Pros:
  • Class-leading amenities, spacious interior, unique exterior styling.
Cons:
  • Some may find the exterior styling odd, 195 horsepower is not much in this class.

  • Great Car - 2004 Kia Amanti
    By -

    We really enjoy this vehicle. The drive is soft which is just what we want this time around. We travel several times a year for long distances and its the most comfortable ride we have ever had. The gas mileage could be better but we do get 25.6 mpg on trips and 21.5 city driving. All around, we couldnt be happier with the performance, comfort and style of our Amanti.

    I have owned the Amanti for two years and traveled 54,000 kms without any problems at all. Comfortable, stylish, fun to drive, and most of all reliable. Great car with good acceleration and nice ride.

  • Love my Amanti - 2004 Kia Amanti
    By -

    I traded a Cadillac in for my Amanti in 2004, and I have never regretted it. This Kia is the best car I have ever had; the mileage is great. It is very comfortable and handles like a dream. Also, I have gotten so many compliments on the looks of this car - It looks much more expensive than it is. Many people have asked me what kind of car I drive. It is such a pleasure to own this car.

  • So comfortable! - 2004 Kia Amanti

    My Amanti is so roomy!!! Even the trunk space. A pleasure to drive, quiet and smooth.

  • Utopian driving - 2004 Kia Amanti
    By -

    The Amanti is such a joy to ride! The heated seats are the sooo comfortable, and the Infinity sound system creates the perfect driving experience. I used to get back spasms in my 2000 Camry XLE, and I dont anymore in the Amanti. The smooth quiet ride is also a huge plus in pothole filled Ohio. I get numerous compliments on the styling & interior fit & finish. I also like the fact that there isnt "one on every corner" (yet).

  • Oh No! Its a Kia - 2004 Kia Amanti
    By -

    Test drove Avalon, Altima, Diamante, Camry, Accord, because I wanted a foreign made vehicle. Good luck finding one of these made in a foreign country (with exception of Diamante). Was test driving an Altima and this dealer had Kia. Asked what kind of car was the Amanti and was told Kia. Oh no! A Kia! I cant have a Kia. I didnt have anything to lose to test drive. Needless to say, I now own it. I have tried to find faults with this car and have found none so far. Seems to be a very solid car, drives effortlessly, rides like a dream, love all features and options (standard). Family and friends love it.

  • Retro Euro-Styling meets American Ride - 2004 Kia Amanti
    By -

    This is a cool looking car -- kindo f reminding me of a mongrel mix between a Mercedees a Bently and something coming out of (former) Communist East Germany. Sitting in the interior is like time travel to 1961 (at least as far as the dash is concerned). The drive is soft, like a mushy American ca. Trunk space and roomy interior make this a comfortable ride for passengers. Performance is what youd expect for a GM-type of mid-range car from the early 1980s -- you dont want to do any extreme maneuvers.

  • Best for your money - 2004 Kia Amanti
    By -

    I am 51. Bought with all options. Great car for the money! The competion does not come close (after looking seriously for 3 months.) Rank with entry level Jag or mercedes at half the cost. Bought after owning a BMW, Jag and 3 Cadillacs. Well kept secret!
