Standard wheels for the everyday driver
My Kia Optima seems to be a basic car. When I first acquired it in 2016, I was not impressed with anything about it. It is not my dream car. I merely wanted to use it to take me to/from the market and run errands. I believe that it is good for just that. I've experienced mechanical problems with it (e.g., radiator overheating and broken timing belt) and have decided to not put anymore money into it should something else go wrong with it. Overall, I have been satisfied with the vehicle's ability to get me from point A to B and do not expect more from a standard quality car.

Luxury on a budget
I was skeptical about buying a Kia prior to test driving one. I felt that they were cheap cars that do not perform up to standards. However, when I first saw the style of the Kia Optima sxL, I had to give it a shot.
The car looks like a luxury car, and comes equipped with just about every option one could imagine. It is extremely comfortable, rides well, and the electronics systems make driving pleasurable. What really caught my eye was the panoramic sunroof, which offers natural lighting throughout the car.
The turbocharged engine offers more than adequate power, yet the car manages to get decent fuel mileage. The car lacks a bit in handling and the steering isn't as tight as you might expect. However, its still a pleasurable driving experience.
The biggest downfall of this car is the learning curve on all of the options. Without the manual, it is difficult to figure out how to use some of the electronic systems such as the navigation/media console. I've also found that the cooled seats do not cool as well as expected.
