        Best car I've ever owned.

        by Shawn C on 11/2/2025 3:20:56 AM

        I bought my car brand new out of Tacoma and I drove it for 7 years but 85,000 plus miles on it and drove it all over the western United States trips to Texas, 4 trips to San Diego and back to Tacoma was absolutely no problem. I'm a big guy in this car had great room and even with my big size and the car loaded down they ran like a champ on the freeway. I traded it in a year ago and I've regretted it ever since I'll give up my brand new car to get into another Forte5 if I can find one without too many miles on it.

        Get's the Job Done

        by JBear on 7/9/2025 8:35:11 PM

        I purchased this car in August of 2018 with 29K miles. Now it's got 228K miles and it's been very reliable. It's just the base LX model with no options, except for the Aurora Black exterior color. It's roomy inside and the trunk is a good size. It rides decent, but don't blazing fast acceleration. It's super fuel efficient which helped a lot when gas prices spiked. Now with rust starting and getting into some big repairs, it's time to replace it. It get's you from here to there very dependably and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a basic, fuel efficient compact car to get you around.

        Good gas. CHANGE YOUR OIL. This car is has a 11.5/1 compression ratio you idiots. That's HIGH PERFORMANCE. And DIRECT INJECTION. Keep your oil topped off. Kia warranties this motor for FIFTEEN freaking years or 150,000 MILES.
