2005 Kia Optima LX Review
ProsGas mileage, ease of repairs, handling in many weather conditions. ConsAir bag light constantly on, nit the most comfortable seats, automatic transmission has no power.

Good Car, Wish I Could Have Owned It New — I dislike the automatic transmission, it takes away from the power of the motor. The car gets around thirty miles to the gallon, and generally runs on any type of gas. I is a fun driver and I drive it everyday to and from work. Primary Use: Commuting to work

Great 2005 Optmia — This is a very nice mid size care with many nice features only found on very high end cars. Long trips are very comfortable and highway gas milage is good. low maintenance cost with very little issues, the only issue we have had is the security module has gone out causing the remotes not to work. Primary Use: Family transportation | ||

Not The Best, But Certainly Not The Worst — Aside from the broken window the day we drove it off the lot and the 7 times to the shop for repairs, including a complete door replacement. Also the 6 trips to the store for repeated headlight replacements due to faulty wiring. The car has held up well. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||
