2010 Kia Forte Koup SX 2dr Coupe (2.4L 4cyl 6M)
Review
Picked this car up just over two weeks ago and I love it. I almost got a VW and decided for the money and other factors the KIA was the best value. So far so good. It's handling is awesome, accelaration is pretty good, a turbo would do this car wonders.
Favorite Features
HANDLING!!!! Styling, acceleration, comfort, features up the ying-yang
Review
I chose to buy SX sedan 6spd. It took me a while to get used to the soft clutch and sensitive gas pedal, but it's a well worth effort. Car handles well for a non-sports car and it really accelerates! The ride is a bit bouncy. I get about 30 - 32 mpg on 75% highway/25% city driving. If you push it a little, the mpg suffers a lot. The instrument panel is not fancy, but very simple/easy to view. I love the voice recognition-enabled bluetooth. The rear trunk sits very high compared to other compacts, but the space is huge. Maybe due to visibility, but this car feels larger than other compacts. The front buffer is a magnet for bug splashes and multiple rock dents into the plastic bumper.
Favorite Features
Decent power/handling. Bluetooth. Acceptable space in the rear. Audio control on the steering wheel. Center console's height is just right to rest my right elbow to take brief rests. SAT radio (free 3 month trial). Trip computer w/ instant mpg indicator (helps control my lead foot)
Review
With 4000k miles in 2 months since driving it off the lot, I have only great things to say about this car! Everything. Absolutely everything is awesome! It looks sharp, like a Lexus and drives like a sporty Cadillac with room to spare! The bluetooth and Sirius rocks especially now that msnbc is on channel 90. I spend more time in my car than my house and feel like I'm not missing out on anything! The fully reclining front seats let me catch some needed z's in sweet comfort, and when I need some zip, it's there big-time without hesitation! For the price, it doesn't get any better than this! The fun is free!
Favorite Features
Bluetooth, Sirius radio, 6-way adjustable drivers seat, gas mileage, 4 doors! 10yr/100k mile warranty, manual shift option that comes with automatics.
