  KIA...Car Paint Job is a Joke - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By coachshopper - September 23 - 1:58 pm

  Bought this car 4 years ago; wanted a luxry car but not the price. Saw this beauty and took it home. Had the car a month and the paint on the front bumper started to bubble and the paint clear coat started chipping. Took it too the dealership and was told there was nothing they could do and it was my fault. Took it too a paint and collision shop and I was told when it bubbles it is bad paint & clear coat from Kia. Went back to talk to the manager and still refused to fix my paint. Then the electrical need to be replaced and the fuel injectors went bad and air conditioner went out. Stay away if you can! Kia doesnt care about your or there cars.

  Love my Amanti - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Mike - September 10 - 10:13 pm

  Ive owned Cadillacs, Hondas, Toyotas, and Nissans. I absolutely love this car. It rides as smooth and quiet as a Cadillac, but came with more great options than a Caddy at twice the price. Ive had to have the computer tweaked once. Comfort is an absolute plus. I can drive for 5 hours and not be remotely tired (and Im 60). The Infinity sound system is very good, but, yes, a Bose is better. The warranty program is excellent and Kia certainly stands behind their product. Handling could be a tad better, but you quickly get the feel of it. I have to admit, I took KIA off the trunk and changed the wheel covers, which has generated many questions as to what kind of car is it. I love it.

  So glad I bought it! - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Terry - August 30 - 1:20 pm

  How can you beat this car at this price! It rides great, is extremely comfortable and has all the features I wanted. I traded in a Lincoln Continental which was a great car but Im glad I did. Love the Cream Gold color with the Black interior - it looks soooo rich. I work at a professional service firm and I cant believe how many people have made positive comments about my new sweet ride! Cant wait to have a reason to go somewhere. I open the moon roof, turn on the fantastic Infinity stereo system and Im in heaven!

  not bad - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By kenya - June 10 - 5:03 pm

  Overall not too bad of a car. Have a strange clicking when turning in reverse. Interior is real nice, need to make a change to the exterior rear of auto - too plain looking, doesnt go with the nice front end.

  Awsome car - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Rick Martin - June 5 - 7:36 am

  The car rides like a dream. The sound system is incredible and the interior looks like a car costing at least twice as much. Coming almost fully loaded for under $25,000, people want to know where I got the money for such an expensive car. I just laugh an tell them I hit the lottery. Sweet car all the way around.

  2005 Amanti - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Shadow - May 9 - 3:16 pm

  Got the car a week ago, have noticed that as it gets colder the ride gets stiffer. I did not like the plastic gas filler cover on a car at this price. Car handles well even with summer tires on icy roads. the ESP and ABS systems keep the car on track when accelerating or breaking, as I passed numerous vehicles in the ditch on their sides. Quality of fuel makes a considerable difference in fuel mileage.

  My Amanti - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Karolyn - April 17 - 2:10 pm

  We went on a 6 week trip this year and had the 30,000. check up before we left. We put over 3,000 miles while we were gone and the car performed outstanding. We reached 34.1 mpg on the highway and thought it was a mistake but after calculating the miles it was correct. The Nitrol that was put in the tires may have been a factor. I have a friend that wants my car but I wont sell to her. My free oil changes and service I receive from Bill Bryan Kia will have me in my car for a little longer.

  VERY PLEASED WITH PURCHASE - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Steve - April 13 - 12:16 am

  Very happy with my purchase. This car is everything that they say. It doesnt take corners real fast. I didnt like the stock wheels that came with it. Only real dislike - they forgot to put a directional mirror in it. This car looks designed by Mercedes and Jaguar but is the best value. I would highly recommend it.

  Best vehicle I have ever owned! - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Robin Cofer - February 19 - 10:43 pm

  I have had this car for a year now. My husband and I continually tell everyone that this is by far the best vehicle we have ever owned. I didnt know what is was when I saw someone driving it. Unlike me, I walked up to a total stranger and asked him about the car. He said he traded his Mercedes for this and he was more pleased with the Amanti. My husband is six and a half feet tall and it is important that he has head-room and has enough legroom. Of course, that generally cramps anyone in the seat behind him, but not in the Amanti. We chose this over a Lincoln and a Cadillac. We have advised two other couples to buy this. They thank us when they see us. Our next car will be an Amanti.
