In love with my Kia
My car is solid there are no rattles or shakes. It drives like a sports car. The model I own has every bell and whistle like a double moon roof, top of the line stereo system, heated and air conditioned seats, its a turbo so it has so much get up and go.

I purchased a 2013 Kia Optima after a lifetime of older used cars. After previously dealing with mechanical issues like engine, transmission, and heating I wanted to make sure that my first new car purchase would be from a company that stands behind the product of their work.
The exterior of the car is a medium/light crimson red and it was the first thing that caught my eye. The lines were sleek and clean, and while the car was compact I could see that there would be ample room to transport my family and groceries.
The interior of the car features creamy tan cloth seats. I am 6'6" and even before adjusting the seat to its maximum distance from the wheel I can find a comfortable position to sit. The dashboard is busy at first glance, but the gauges follow a logical order. The center console has a large display for music or satellite radio and the cd player was a nice feature. This was my first car with an aux input and that has become the main way I listen to music. Controls for audio located on the steering wheel is my favorite feature when it comes to the entertainment package.
Mechanically, the car runs well. I have kept up with all of the manufacturers recommended maintenance and outside of normal wear and tear (brake pads, etc) I have had zero issues with the automobile mechanically. I opted for an extended warranty for peace of mind, and while I am glad to have it I have found that it was not necessary.

Adventurous journey
Overall, it is an amazing car. The car mileage is amazing. This car has thousands of miles on it, and it still performs as it was new and straight out of the factory. What I like is the comfort it offers. The seats are exceptional, and I've never had a day where sitting on it all day hurts me. The seats are of cloth, but that doesn't mean it is not any good. The engine in the car is enough for me as well. It has enough horsepower for me as I only need it to get from Point A to point B. The head space inside the car is great and has not given me any issues of needing more headroom. Even though it is used and about six years old, the engine runs well and there is no throttling. The interior is very good and more than enough for the average consumer. The exterior compliments the inside of the car, which is a good plus. It has powerful engine options. It has good fuel economy along with great warranty. A very good thing about this car is the availability of putting the racks on top of the car. I bike a lot so it is very necessary to have a car that can mount bikes. Surely enough this car can mount my bike and keep it safe. There are some negative aspects of this car such as limited headroom for tall people. The quality of this car can be a lot better for the price point. Additionally, this car could have gone a lot further with its features and provide more, but a car can not have everything. Overall, it is a great car with some features that are very good.
