  Finer than the finest - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By rich - January 24 - 11:16 pm

  Ive been in Cadillacs, Lincolns, Toyota (Lexus), and Hondas many times before, but Ive yet to come across a better car than the Kia Amanti. The interior is true luxury & the exterior styling turn heads everyday we drive our car. My Amanti out the door was less than $18,000 and we are amazed at the level of refinement in this car. Interior design and quality are at the Mercedes, VW, and Jaguar levels & are far above most domestic and foreign makes. The 3.5 liter engine is powerful, yet a little thirsty, & performs with the 5 speed auto transmission well. The trunk is huge as is passenger room and storage. Handing on the road is controlled & plush. One drive & youll buy the Amanti.

  This car sucks - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Kayla - January 4 - 3:22 am

  Ive only had this car for two months and it has broken down 3 times. Once while I was in the middle of diving and the other two times it just wouldnt start. The brakes suck and the side mirrors never stay set. I have to reset them every time I get in the car. Kia dealers are annoying. They told me I needed a new computer which would cost about $4000 so I towed it home and jumped it because they kill r my battery and it ran just fine. All it needed was a coil pack. Please dont buy this car ever.

  Great Car! - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By DRJJJJJ - December 20 - 6:30 am

  We have owned this car for about 2 weeks and have just wonderful things to say about. The car looks and feels like many upscales models of other manufacturers. Very luxurious interior, not to mention a smooth, quick ride. Great value for the money and with the long term warranty you cannot go wrong. Kia has proven themselves are worthy competitor with this car!

  Best kept secret - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Wm. Howell - November 27 - 10:20 pm

  I went from an Infiniti to a Lexus to my Amanti. Hands down this vehicle is quieter and has a smoother ride than my previous vehicles. Time will tell as to whether or not it is as reliable. Even though it is a new model, I feel secure with the 10 year warranty. I get a lot of stares and thumbs up driving it. I it just an all-round beautiful vehicle.

  2005 Kia Amanti - 2005 Kia Amanti

  We gave up a DeVille for the Amanti and it has been a great luxury car. The gas mileage could be a lot better but everything so far, seems to been built very well.

  Its a good one - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By johnj - October 16 - 6:40 am

  So far I have 18,000 miles on the vehicle; during the summer I took a 4,000 mile trip over a 2 week period. The gas mileage was between 20 and 25 MPG; around town I get an average of 17. I still enjoy getting in and driving it. I would recommend it to anyone. The vehicle I traded in on this one was a 2003 Kia Sorento which was excellent and this Amanti is too.

  what a great car for a low price - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Bill - August 9 - 3:53 am

  Ive owned my Amanti for only 5 months and have not driven a lot of miles yet, but I love it. Everything about it shouts quality. It’s so quiet, smooth and responsive. I’m 57 years old and this is truly the finest car I’ve ever owned. And the price? Truly a bargain in today’s market. I have noticed other owners complaining about gas mileage. On the cars computer it says I’m getting 11.5 mpg but I’ve tested it the old fashioned way, miles driven and actual gallons used and have consistently come up with 19.8 mpg in town driving. I think the on board figures are wrong. Would strongly advise you to check it this way for a more accurate figure. Everything else, a-one!

  Awesome return on investment - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By gstanford - July 29 - 7:46 am

  At the moment I drive 360 miles one way to work on my 2005 Amanti. Combined highway and city mpg average is 22.7 mph and I drive 70+ mph when I can. Performs better than what my 450SEL did and the amenities far exceed any car or truck I have owned. 4 way auto windows, heated lumbar leather seats, individual heat/air controls for driver/passengers including the rear just to name a few. Awesome engine performance. When you kick this engine in the butt... hold on. I love this car. Miles are now 57k time to trade so I started looking at King Ranch but changed my mind. I pick up my new Amanti tomorrow. One more thing, the KIA warranty is awesome. I actually enjoy my dealership experience.
