Classy Chassis - 2005 Kia Amanti
By Linda Overman - February 16 - 4:36 amIts a shame that American car manufacturers just dont get the idea of quality and comfort. Hats off to Kia for the Amanti--what a beautiful car. Plenty of power, lap of luxury and a pretty cool style! I have driven many American luxury cars- Caddy,Regis,Buick Ford-- but this one is the nicest. Smooth--silent---stable. Everything that a true luxury car should be---without the price gouging.

Solid, great warranty - 2005 Kia Amanti
By Sidney Prefer - January 31 - 4:13 pmThe car rides very good, comfortable and quiet. It has enough power for me. The only drawback is mileage, about 21 overall.

My Amanti - 2005 Kia Amanti
By Kristi - January 20 - 1:26 pmI was one of those who would only drive American vehicles. I bought a 2004 Grand Prix GT new and traded it for a new 05 Impala. Both were nothing but trouble. Because of the warranty I decided to try KIA. This has been the greatest car. Its dependable and built very well. Unlike my previous cars it is extremely safe. I have driven it over 15000 miles in 4 months and not a problem once.

CHUCKS REVIEW - 2005 Kia Amanti
By CHARLES P. TRACY - December 19 - 2:20 pmI have been surprised with the reaction that I get from my friends about the Kia Amanti. They all are impressed with the styling and comfort of the car, not to mention how quite it runs. They just cant believe that it is a Kia ! We also have a hatchback Spectra that I bought for my daughter. She loves it.

fall in love again - 2005 Kia Amanti
By T - December 15 - 2:33 pmI drive a lot. I am thrilled with the side curtain airbags and the front passenger seat monitor of the airbag. I love the ability to manually shift. The heaviness of the vehicle lends to that old feeling of safety. I adore the look of the car itself and am thrilled to say that for the past month I am getting 26 miles to the gallon (3000 miles). I truly might be able to love again ... this car makes you remember those feelings!

Who needs GM? - 2005 Kia Amanti
By Tronzani - December 10 - 1:56 amI have driven GM products my entire life and never would be caught dead in a Kia. I was always raised that you got what you paid for, and from what I have now learned I paid for a Jag at a fraction of the cost! The fit and finish is amazing, the seats are comfortable (And heated with 5 settings!) and the ride is like a cloud! The Infinity sound system can blow your ears off, and the wood trim is fantastic. For a full sized sedan the gas mileage is great, and the 200 hp will really rock out o the gate. Not only that, but the trunk is spacious with more then I know what to do with, and the back seat is easy to navigate. The doors open wider then most vehicles and this is an overall dream!

My third Kia - 2005 Kia Amanti
By Garry - October 19 - 11:23 amWe owned two Sedonas and were pleased with the safety styling and value when the Amanti was introduced. We purchased one with the optional electronic stability control. The performance has improved as it was driven. When new it didnt accelerate very well. It is now "hard to hold down!" We have owned a couple of Lincolns and this auto compares very favorably.

Teds Opinion - 2005 Kia Amanti
By Edward J. Loughney - October 17 - 7:16 amMy experience with this car has been 4.0. It could have a little additional power. And I cant understand why they didnt install the automatic rear view mirror. It would also be nice to have something similar to the GM program that gives driving instructions on trips.

Feeling sad - 2005 Kia Amanti
By Hopeful - September 28 - 12:33 pmI purchased my car with 913 miles on it. It was primarily driven by the Kia manager where I purchased my vehicle. I have roughly 28,000 miles on my car and I am on my 2nd transmission. The new transmission is unfortunately not any better than the initial one. My 1st tranny was replaced at 22,000. Ive brought it back to the dealership and told them about the new 2nd transmission slipping when starting up. Now with cold weather its even worse and Im actually afraid to drive it any long distances until I get this transmission remedied or get another new transmission. Im very envious of the folks who have had good luck. I really love my Amanti, but its sick at the moment.
