  • Kia Amanti...The Korean Rolls Royce - 2006 Kia Amanti
    By -

    Looks like a Rolls Royce used to look. Drives like a dream. Has every gadget known to mankind. Free roadside service for 10 years (think it is 10). We havent needed any. People stop to look at it when it is parked.

  • Best Ride in Its Class - 2006 Kia Amanti
    By -

    My fiance and I test drove a LOT of cars before test driving an 2006 Amanti on a whim. We immediately fell in love with the classic styling, the beautiful interior, and all the options. Then when we drove it we knew this was the car we were going to buy. It had BY FAR the smoothest ride and reminds us of a jaguar/bentley. This car is perfect for cruising the interstate and for comfort. It is not a sports car for those who want to drive curvy roads at 80 mph.

  • Kia still has a lot of work to do - 2006 Kia Amanti
    By -

    This 2006 Kia Amanti was a replacement for a 2005 Amanti which had many problems starting with a transmission that was replaced. The dealer replaced the vehicle with the 2006 and from the very first day I experienced the same problems as with the 05 model with the addition of having the engine light come, intermittent lurching and lose of power. The vehicle spent most of February at the dealership at which point I was offered a Mitsubishi in a straight trade, which was declined. I am now in the process of arbitration to have the manufacturer buy back this vehicle as we do not have a lemon law in Canada.

  • What a Great Car! - 2006 Kia Amanti
    By -

    This car is unbelievable. It is the best car I have ever owned and I have owned some pretty expensive cars. It has a very smooth ride and wonderful luxuries. It is very roomy and has a big trunk.

    Best car I have ever owned. Very happy with this car. Unbelievable quality and features. It is as good or better than a Benz, BMW, Jag, etc.

  • Love our Amanti - 2006 Kia Amanti
    By -

    I have really enjoyed owning my Kia Amanti. It looks so sharp! My husband and I took it on vacation right after we bought it, and we received many compliments from other travelers when we stopped for gas, food, etc.

  • Pure Luxury - 2006 Kia Amanti
    By -

    I have been driving a 2004 Hyundai Sonata GLS and was so impressed with the quality,styling and performance, I decided to buy the bigger luxury Kia Amanti. The Amanti is only 6 inches narrower than a Lincoln Town Car. Hyundai owns Kia and the same quality and fabulous warranty is there!

  • 06 Kia Amanti - Its amazing.... - 2006 Kia Amanti
    By -

    Some of the features of the trip computer are useless such as the elapsed driving time. Having a fluid systems status check would be more useful and why didnt Kia think to integrate a compass into the trip computer; that would have been useful too!

  • I dont need a Three blade Star - 2006 Kia Amanti
    By -

    The Amanti is a very comfortable car. I traded a 1999 Lincoln Town Car with a lot of interior room for the Amanti and I find it has as much interior room as the Town Car. The controls are well placed and I especially like the adjustable REAR seats for my passengers. I have the option that allows the windows to darken in the sunlight. OK, I personally dont like the rear view mirrors tilting down when I put it in Reverse. But, my wife does, so to keep her happy, I can always move the mirrors up with the controls then hit the seat memory button when I go back to forward gears and they come back in place. What I go through to keep the wife happy. She likes the car as well as I do.

  • Amanti - Take II - 2006 Kia Amanti
    By -

    I enjoyed my 04 Amanti so much that I traded for a pre-owned 06. I still love it.
