It really had the power to surprise me! by Roberto, at Houston, Texas on 11/16/2007. Trim: 2004 Kia Spectra (2004.5) EX, Owned 2 years.

Pros: Fun to drive. Fast response for acelaration and braking. Wide, confortable interior and cargo area considering a compact car, lots of safety features, fuel economy, low cost maintanance. The look is really good. Prety good sound of the radio and 6 speakers. The most extensive warranty out there.

Cons: Front seats a bit small for big bodies, some engine noise at high rpm. Kia dealer service not available on Saturdays. Only doors handlers needed to be repainted and battery needed a jump start once.

Overall review: A very competitive price (2005, EX Equiped, $14,800) for a very good and practical car. Happy to own it after 2 and a half years!
