2008 Kia Amanti User Reviews

Pros

Nice styling, comfort, good first luxury car, sound system kicks pretty well

Cons

needs GPS for an option, fold down back or split seat would be better that a small pass thru

Purchased As Used

My first car new was a KIA Spectra 2005, i was at my 60, 000 mi so i thought about maybe trading it in. I loved that car. trade in happened, and got an Amanti 08 used with one owner which was a leasing agent. 15,000 mi on it. It has all the bells and whistles, leather, etc. Car is in mint condition. I feel spoiled and once you go leather and heat, you will never go back. It is a good car on the hwy, mileage is to be determined at this point. But rides nicely. My husband loves it. A GPS would be nice as there is a good space for it. I think the car is a little longer than i prefer, back lights should be smaller and turned side way to make it more sleek. but, will get used to that. I went in wanting an Opitima w/ all the bells and whistles, but here I am driving the flagship of Kia just like the rest. It has traces of a c class benz. my husband and i call it party in the front and business in the back by the way it is designed. sleek front appearance, business car in the back. My only complaint is that when we purchased the car, after all said and done, it did not come with any floor mats. The dealership was not honest in the begining and told us in the end said they could not find them. With no offer of a replacement. My husband and I are pretty miffed since I have been giving my business to them since 2004, oil changes and all. We are trying to recover a set from them, it would cost them nothing. You would think that a dealership would want to keep its customers.....
