Overview & Reviews
The Kia Optima receives only minor revisions for the 2004 model year. The grille has been revised, 16-inch wheels are now standard on V6 models and the alloy wheels on the EX (last year's SE) have been redesigned. Finally, an in-glass antenna replaces the old power mast style unit from last year, but only on the EX and the LX with the optional cassette/CD audio system.
- Excellent warranty, pleasant highway ride, lots of features for the price.

Im a believer - 2004 Kia Optima
By Frank - March 7 - 10:13 amThe steering power assist is over compensated and the steering feels almost artificial, but I will never complain about it again. I had a near miss on the freeway yesterday and my Optima maneuvered excellently. If it wasnt for its excellent maneuverability and the power of the V6, I may not have been here to write this. Most people do not believe I paid $20k for the car (with $3K cash back); most say I must have must have paid at least $25K (its loaded, leather, abs, and power everything). Its longevity remains to be seen, but for now, Im a believer.

2002 Optima EX-V6 - 2004 Kia Optima
By RobF - February 4 - 10:00 amFor a 2002 it has had less problems than previous American cars Ive owned but more problems than my last Honda. Overlal I am happy with the fit and finish of the interior and the amount of car for the money.

My Kiallac - 2004 Kia Optima
By L Leal - January 20 - 4:56 pmI love this car it still gets good mileage and as far as road trips even my over 6ft tall basketball players dont complain about the ride or the squeeze. They laugh cause I call it my KIA-LLAC. Ride is smooth as any caddy just not as expensive. I found if you keep up your service the car will be good to you......

Good Value - 2004 Kia Optima
By Ant - January 11 - 3:56 pmI didnt think that Kia would have a good car, but the Optima proved me wrong on the test drive. My 04 V6 has a good amount of power and the style of it makes it look like it might have cost a lot.
