Reliable car

I like my Kia Spectra. I purchased it with 113,600 miles and put on 18,000 miles and besides ordinary maintenance, I only had to change out a $29 head light bulb. The car runs nice and shifts well. When I purchased it; it just had new front brakes and new tires installed. It is very good on gas. It is a reliable and inexpensive and the air conditioning works pretty good and heating still works very well.

Decent but could be better

I've had the car now for a year now and I haven't had any major problems with it, mainly the tires/all wheel bearings were shot (all happened over the year) The seats are comfortable, decent stereo, rated the best in safety especially the airbags.. I had to get a new battery for it, New whiper blades, muffler, brakes(rotors&pads), front axel, and the rust is terrible especially after the winter in Buffalo but overall for it being used and from 2009 it could have been a lot worst. It would make a good 1st car, it is reliable, the motor keeps going! ( Keep up with your oil changes)

Dependable, Durable, and low cost parts

Very dependable car, interior and exterior wear well over time. Not fashionable or super comfortable but repairs and parts are affordable, makes you want to keep it long after paying it off. Easy to maneuver in city. Excellent visibility from drivers seat 360°.

Wish I could give it more stars

This car has never has had anything but oil changes, tires and batteries replaced. It gets near and occasionally over 30mpg highway miles. My 10-year-old car needed its first freon boost today. That is an excellent car if you ask me!

A Good Dependable vehicle

Its served me well with very few repairs needed.Good mileage. Good maneuverability. With regular oil and filter changes and an annual inspection, maintenance costs have been minimal. I can haul 2 kayaks on it and with a 4X8 plywood sheet on the kayak racks, this little car can haul materials that barely fit in a van. Its driven by a resourceful SOB. I hope my comments are helpful to you.
