It runs well and has a roomy trunk. It is a good family sedan.
I like that it's paid for. Even though it's older, it still runs well and has under 77,000 miles. It's also excellent on gas mileage. It has a tape player and a CD player. The only thing I dislike about it is the previous owners left it out in the desert sun and some of the paint has flaked off the handles. But that's just cosmetic and besides that, I have no complaints. I love this car.

It is 18 years old and still going strong.
Reliable, color (pearl white), low maintenance cost.... Older model; no Bluetooth, etc., no navigation system or back up cams.

That Kia's are just as good as all the other brands out there.
I like my car, even though it is 17 yrs old, the look of it is still current. It does not have all the new features, but I don't really need them. It drives smooth, gas mileage is OK, but now that it is old, I fear the expense of repairs.

Kia is a real reliable car, even 18 years old.
2001, 127k miles, comfortable, reliable, minimal maintenance, would by again. . Sure that the newer models have improved in gas mileage, comfort, leg room. Bought mome second hand an individual with low milage, the only thing I noticed is that it has rusted out fast around rear wheels on both sides. Also the underbody driver side has rusted, carpet is always damp.

Good quality. Seasoned vehicle
My car is stable. It runs good but is older. It does have more maintenance because it is an older car. It still drives well and gets me where I need to go.

Great used white Kia. Sunroof and mileage are a plus.
Love the sunroof and mileage. Did have to do entire timing system and just did exhaust to catalytic. Only thing I hate is 1 ring bad and burning oil slowly. It only smokes because of this while idling for too long or when I hit any highway. But only smokes on highway for say a 1/4 mile.

This is the most reliable vehicle I have ever had.
My car is old and on its last legs. Brakes are old. Need new tires. Broken air conditioning so it is always hot.

The were not built to last.

2001 and Still Going Strong

Great warranty given by Kia. My car has served me well.
Bought as my retirement car. Love it and it has served me well. Because of age, several repairs, yet has not broke my bank. Plus Kia has the best warranty. I recommend this car maker. I would buy another one when I win the lottery. I am the church lady these days. Do not drive as much as in the past. Again, I highly recommend Kia.

Smooth driving. Comfortable seats. Family friendly.
My car is very smooth driving. It has a sunroof. It's very cheap on gas. It has a Huge trunk space. I fit my family in comfortably. The radio is great and can be adjusted to different speakers in the car easily. The air conditioner is amazing it is the coldest air I have felt in a car!

Smooth sailing Kia Optima.
I really love how smooth driving is with this car, it makes running errands and getting to school and work on time easy! It is always an easy start up and with the simple yet sleek interior, it is easy finding all the functions you need. I can start my car up early in the morning on a freezing day, and it will be warm and defrosted within 10 minutes or less! Even though this car may appear small, which is perfect for a short lady such as myself, I can still fit 3-4 friends comfortable in the seats! This is great for outgoings and family/friends. I believe this car will last me years to come.
