ALRIGHT, IM 18 YEARS OLD AND THIS IS MY FIRST RIDE. I LIVE ON A DIRT ROAD AND MY OPTIMA RIDES, OR FLYS, SMOOTH AS THE SAND BENEATH IT.  i WENT OVER MY OIL CHANGE DATE A FEW TIME BY 3,000 AND STILL NO SIGN OF AN ANGRY CAR. ALTHOUGH, A WHILE AGO I WANTED A "NEW" CAR AND TRIED TO WHIP THE CAR AROUND TO THE POINT OF NO RETURN, BUT ALL IT DID WAS OBEY IT'S COMMAND AND HELD ON! SO HERE I AM, WITH THIS CAR THAT WONT DIE.  UNFORTUNATLY, ON A FEW INSTANCES, ITEM SUCH AS WEATHER-STRIPPING AND THE PAINTED SURFACES BY & ON THE SIDE MIRRORS FADE AND FALL OFF. SO DONT BE SURPRISED IF U NEED TO TIE SOMETHING DOWN ON YOUR WAY HOME. IT ALWAYS SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN YOUR HAVING A BAD DAY TOO. AT LEAST THE MAIN PART OF THE CAR IS ALWAYS UP TO PAR.

INTERIOR IS GREAT TOO. WOODGRAIN IS AVAILABLE AND WORTH GETTING, BECAUSE IT HELPS KEEP "KIA" MISTAKEN FOR A LEXUS. AND WHO DOESN'T LIKE THERE CAR BEING CONSIDERED A LEXUS OR BMX? I ALSO REMOVED THE OLD CD PLAYER, BUT THE STOCK SANSONE SPEAKERS WERE BUMPIN.  THAT CAR HAS SO MUCH TO OFFER.  IF YOU DESIDE TO BUY ONE... ITS WORTH FORKIN OUT FOR LITTLE THINGS THAT SHINE A NEW LIGHT ON KIA AUTOMOBLES. WHATS THE POINT OF BUYING A NEW FERRARI WITHOUT AN AWESOME PAINT JOB AND ENGINE?  POINTLESS...
