Best car ever!
by clvh on 3/15/2026 5:00:59 PM
Our 2017 Kia Optima EX has been our best car ever! It is stylish, well-equipped, and runs like a dream. We bought it new in August 2017 and it now has 45,000 miles on it. We have had zero service problems with it. Other than our scheduled maintenance, all we've had to do is install a new battery (we were in Europe for 6 months) and change our tires at 35,000 miles. This summer it will be nine years old. We have had many different new cars over the years, including a 1993 MB 190 2.3 and a 1999 MB S320, and this is the most trouble-free vehicle of all. Plus, it drives very well, is comfortable inside, and gets super mileage (28+/38+) Also, it does not have a digital speedometer which manufacturers insist on putting in new cars these days. All and all, a great car! - 5.0
Great Vehicle

I have had my used 2019 Kia Optima since 2020 bought it from Enterprise car rental in Shreveport Louisiana and other just basic maintenance such as oil changes the only mechanical thing I have had to do and that was just over a year ago and that was get another battery. No mechanical problems what so ever. The best car I have ever had and I'm 61yoa. Have had a number of vehicles in my lifetime But this is the Best. Thank you
