  MY Amanti - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Anthony - December 24 - 7:16 pm

  In the real estate business, this car performs well. It looks great, is quiet so we can speak without the thumping and banging my past luxury cars had. Almost no wind noise and the engine is quiet. The heat and A/C work well, great traction in wet and snow. I drive 40k a year and this car does what it should. Nothing has broken, and all systems are above par. I have had many other cars; Jag X and S, Chrysler 300M, and Park Aveneu, but none have it all like the Amanti. I listen and feel for vibrations; this is a heavy car and has none. Quality everywhere -- just open the hood, trunk, and doors. If Kia came to U.S with its current cars and prices everyone would respect their product more.

  What a bargain - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By JJKRN - December 22 - 10:16 pm

  I found this car by accident, drove it reluctantly, and fell in love. I make a good living and NEVER play keep up with the Jones type games.The exterior is kind of weird looking to my taste, but the interior is beyond first class I find it very responsive, good mileage, and a pleasure to commute in. If youre looking for a first class car, and want to save a lot of money, try the Amanti.

  OH MY GOSH!! - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By KC Comfort Seeker - November 8 - 6:06 am

  Great car--great buying experience. It took me about 18 months to pull the trigger on a new car. I usually buy used and drive them forever. But I fell in love with this car and it has lived up to my every expectation. Feature function value to the max. Friends and family cant believe the extras included for the price. I didnt think the dual heat/AC would be that noticeable but my wife and I can ride in total temperature comfort with no problem. Interior looks like a much higher priced luxury car. Controls are easy to adjust and intuitive to figure out. Decent gas mileage but you dont buy a car like this for the gas mileage. Very roomy, very comfortable. Bargain hunters delight.

  Happy, But Not PERFECTLY Happy - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By OhManti - October 17 - 2:20 am

  Contrary to some, I dont find the suspension loose or "floaty." The brakes are a bit too grippy for me. The rides wonderfully pleasant, would be dead quiet if the air intake wasnt so loud. Posh enough, but cheap very scratchable finish on the interior glossy bits. Wish it had a compass; Love the computer and gobs of great gadgetry otherwise. Happy with accelleration, at the stoplight and for passing, dont mind the lessor V6. Love the front end, back end cloys, though I think the trunks my favorite feature -- HUGE. CD changer slow loading. horn pathetic. blind spot in front. Saftey top notch. Eight way seats, but havent got comfortable on long trips.

  KIA HAS WHAT YOU WANT FOR LESS $$ - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Fac9502 - September 25 - 8:26 am

  If you are looking for a great car at a great price the KIA Amanti might fit your criteria. For about what you can spend on a base bottom of the line Jaguar X-Type you can get a fully loaded Kia Amanti with sunroof,vehicle stability program ,traction control, leather, heated seats, an Infinity sound system, dual climate control, rear A/C, heated seats, eight standard airbags, five years of roadside assistance, and a lot more that I cant fit on this review. If you are looking for a luxury sedan that is not going to break the bank and you are looking to keep it for a long or a little while this is the car for you or should I say it is definitely worth more than just a look - you need to drive it.

  KIA Amanti "GOOD CAR" - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By BOB M - September 13 - 5:40 am

  The KIA Amanti is a well built car. The ride is very smooth and quite. Handling and visibility is excellent. Interior is roomy and comfortable. Sound system is superior (Infinity} with cassette and 6 cd changer. It is equipped with many options found in cars costing much more. Started out to buy a Chrysler 300 and test drove the KIA Amanti and was very impressed with it.

  The Amanti turn heads - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By djoyceh - September 7 - 10:33 pm

  The Amanti is a fun car to drive. It has all the quality and features of sedans costing thousands more. We have had people approach us in parking lots with compliments. It will turn heads as we drive by. Its great! You cant beat the 10 years or 100,000 mile warranty either.

  I never thought I would buy a Kia - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Robert - August 3 - 8:06 am

  i recently found myself in the position of needing a new car. I shopped Chevy, Ford, Toyota, Nissan and ended up at a Kia dealership on a lark. Once I rode in it... It was over. The ride, the amenities and the look had me at hello. I had been driving in a friends Lexus and the experience was virtually the same for less than half the price. I want home, did my "due diligence" and found an overwhelming abundance of positive reviews and experiences regarding the Amanti. In the "bang for the buck" category, the Amanti is the winner, Hands down.

  Greatest Find of this and last century - 2005 Kia Amanti
  By Morko Berbeteoux - July 23 - 3:25 pm

  This is a great and special car. Glad to meet a quintessential sales associate with discerning abilities that conducted himself in a professional manner and wore fine Italian shiny suits.
