  Great Car! - 2010 Kia Forte
  By jason33 - November 11 - 5:06 am

  We bought this sporty Kia after much research. We looked at and drove the Mazda 3, Honda Civic, Toyota Corrola,and Scion Tc, hands down the Forte was the winner. We got leather heated seats, 2.4 liter engine, moon roof, tinted windows and 17 inch wheels, for $20,130 minus rebates of,1,000 and a 500 dollar owner loyalty rebate (traded in an 2002 Kia sportage) so $18,630 out the door. The Mazda, toyota and Honda were all over $24,000 with no rebate and warranty that cant compare. This Kia is built well. And Kia has improved by leaps and bounds since my 2002 sportage was built. We love this car, it performs as well or better than the competition. I cant say enough good about our little Kia!

  Best decision I made! - 2010 Kia Forte
  By Brandon Arenibar - November 10 - 5:20 pm

  Ive owned my Forte Koup for two weeks now and it seems to get better everyday. Things I didnt notice on my test drive like the awesome sound of the muffler, very sporty, and pep. You really need to get used to ECO mode and learn how to drive with it to tell, but my car is quick. It doesnt feel like it either, next thing you know youre at 70. All the features you have in this car seem like they should be in a high end model. No car that I have looked at has the quality and amount of features standard. I also have to give a shout to KIA, the support for this purchase has been amazing. They wont stop sending me thank yous and free maintenance coupons, etc. I am so pleased with them

  Best Car Every Purchased - 2010 Kia Forte
  By LMS - November 9 - 7:48 pm

  I bought this car new in April, 2010. I have since driven it 136,000 miles. Besides the normal maintenance & wear and tear, I have not had a serious issue with this car. Not once! It has been extremely reliable. Driven from PA to NC on multiple occasions, and daily gets over 50 miles to and from work. If you are looking for a car that is reliable and cost effective, take a look at a 2010 Kia Forte. Even if high miles, Id think this would be a great purchase. Heres to getting to 200k and having the same review!

  2010 forte EX review - 2010 Kia Forte
  By stevenmark - October 27 - 10:33 pm

  Purchased this car as a birthday present to myself a few weeks ago. This car rides, looks, and feels as if I spent thousands more on it. I test drove other vehicles in its class such as Toyota corolla, Mazda 3, civic sedan, just to name a few and the forte won out over these cars. The Mazda and Honda had horrible road noise where as the forte was very quiet inside.

  Excellent Value - 2010 Kia Forte
  By Mike - September 25 - 1:56 am

  Great car for the money! Loaded with standard features and has a sleek look to it unlike its predecessor. I also own a 2007 Civic and the Forte is comparable in almost all areas. The gear ratio feels awkward at times, but you get used to it. So far I am sub 30 mpg combined. I would like to see that go up. Overall, an outstanding compact sedan!

  Love this car - 2010 Kia Forte
  By Robin - August 28 - 1:13 pm

  I bought my 2010 Kia new. I love the way it handles. It has a sleek design. It was priced right... in the seven years Ive had it, I have done nothing more than put on a new set of tires, alignment, new battery, and oil/fluid changes. I would have had it seven more years had someone not rear-ended me hard and totaled it. I will now buy another new Forte Koup EX.

  First KIA was a 2006 Spectra5 SX, love it. with 106,000 miles no problems. Purchased Forte for 14850 out the door.with gas mileage package. Great looking car ( Dark Cherry), comfortable, roomy, great gas mileage, the last two tanks were 34.9 mpg on north east winter gas. 20/80 cityhighway. Transmission does not always shift smoothly, will take to dealer.

  Price, quality, good looking car. Has more standard features then Honda,Toyota etc. Would have preferred the leather package but none were available and the cash for clunkers was ending. First tank of gas averaged 28.5 mpg city driving

  Great new compact challenger - 2010 Kia Forte
  By buck1nut - November 26 - 7:30 am

  After much research and test driving I decided to go with the Kia Forte EX. For what I paid I could not even touch anything from the competition. It certainly didnt hurt that it was the best looking and had the most standard HP of anything I compared. It has a very smooth ride for a compact car and plenty of pep to boot. This car is certainly worth a look for those considering Honda, Toyota, etc. However, after looking at this car you may not look back!
