Hi All, I'm new to the Kia family having just picked up (on my birthday no less) a brand new 2018 Kia Optima SXL in White Pearl. In Canada, the SXL is limited to a black napa leather interior so that's what I got. I'm coming to the Kia family from BMW. I'm in my late 30s and went through a...

I recently purchased a 2013 Optima SX in corsa blue -- absolutely gorgeous color -- with 46k on the odometer. It was between this car and a black-on-black SXL with the same mileage for the same price (had been on the lot for almost a year and was out wholesale price). At the end of the day, I...

I've owned 3 Optima's since 2012, an EX Luxury, a Hybrid and an SX & I loved all 3 of them (SX the most of course) Now it was time for a new car, we narrowed it down to a 2016 Kia Optima SXL (I liked the new design & all the updated technology/bells & whistles) we also loved the BMW, it looks...

Hello friends. I need some solid advice please. I am seriously wanting to install a set of BMW [59586] Style#162 18x8 Silver Aluminum Alloy 7-spoke rims onto my 2012 Kia Optima EX. I have located a complete set of the BMW rims with tires (70% tread remaining) for only $650.00. I cannot...

Got rid of my aging BMW for a brand new 2013 KIA optima hybrid with 17 miles and so far things have been great! Love the look of the car, love how it drives and how quiet it is, and I love the displays even with an LX model! It's a 3 year lease, and will cost me about $280/m, which gives me a...

Hey guys, Been researching the forums a lot lately and decided to register and post. Currently looking for a new car preferably a Hybrid. I was wondering if you guys think the Hybrid provides a substantial improvement over the regular Optima? I'm trying to decide whether to get a 2012 Basic...

Hi everyone, I have been giving a lot of thought recently on purchasing a new Optima to replace my 06 BMW 325i. I was curious if there were any other members here that have went from a BMW to a Kia. I test drove one for the first time the other day and while I like the body and interior...

Like many of us on the forum my Optima has the KIA/OPTIMA badges changed over to the 3.0 K emblem's and the K5 trunk emblem (thanks David @ K5 Optima store)....... Yesterday driving down the highway, a beautiful current model year white BMW 328i passed me, and was rubber necking trying to...

After clicking around the exled site today, had a thought -- would it be possible and advisable to create the BMW angel eye look? I was thinking you could open the headlight case and install a white LED strip and seal it back up. But, I have no idea if this would just create some potential...

Sold my 2001 330i with 160000 miles for a brand new 2013 kia... Love the car... Loaded minus the Nav Pics:

This thread is for those looking for the next leap in handling and performance from the Optima. For the same MSRP as an SXL, you'll be able to soon buy a 180 hp, tuneable BMW 3 Series nicely equipped. This will be nice for those who didn't want to make the $6-10k leap to a 328i. You can...

My brother in-law has a 2012 528i (but he has x-drive). Just compare for fun the major specs (HP, torque, etc) with comparable options. Even rear leg room space looks the same at first sight. BMW has 8 speeds vs 6: thats the only spec I see which favors the Bimmer........... about everywhere...
