Search Results for ‘used’

Hey guys, I don't know much about Kia Optima other than they look like a nice sporty car. I was looking on craigslist to buy a used one a stumbled across a nice black one with 116k miles on it. The owner said the engine was rebuilt due to the recall. Would you advise me to stay away from...

After weeks and weeks of searching, thought I found the right Optima. 2015 Optima, About 50K miles, 13K out the door, white. I was told this was CPO and papers indicate CPO, bought from Kia Dealer. Drove it home, never having driven a Optima before, it sounded a bit louder than what I would...

Looking to buy a used Optima for a daily driver. I commute 200 miles a day. I have an option for a 2012 Optima Hybrid with 105K miles, my trade plus $500 cash or 2015 Optima LX with 85K miles, my trade plus $3,500 cash Both are clean, no accidents, Kia certified from a Kia dealer.

Ive googled and read all kinds of things. I like the 14/15 gen the best, but that whole engine failure thing scares me away from the 14s. But the interior of the 16+ is nicer imo. I just dont like how it looks a little fatter due to either actual increased width or the front air scoops making...

OK everyone, I thought I'd try here as my Google searches didn't reveal much useful. I have a 2017 Optima PHEV (I don't think the PHEV part matters for this purpose). So let's say I am listening to music from my phone via bluetooth. Done driving, turn the car off. Next time I get in the car...

Looking at a new(to me, most likely used) sporty sedan. Has to carry my family of four to school and back, family vacatins, and be my daily. Looked very closely at the Optima LX (great exterior, cheap interior, weak handling, ok performance) and mazda6 (funky exterior, great interior, great...

I'm new here and seeking some help. I guess I have to post here so here goes: My KIA alerted me to a Hybrid Charging Issue before stalling at an intersection and refusing to start again. I had the vehicle towed to the nearest Kia dealer who did extensive diagnostic work. They determined that a...

Hello, I am a 'newbie' to the thread (as well as Forums in general). I just purchased my Kia last saturday. I like the car but I'd love to know how easy / hard it is to have some extra features added to the car since my model didn't come with some of the options available to the optima. Has...

I am looking for input as to purchasing a used Optima. Any best years, worst years? I am looking at a 2014 SX turbo with 24k miles and a 2013 SXL with 20k miles this week. Is there anything I should look out for? Are these a good options or am I better off looking at newer? I would appreciate...

I was looking online at other cars I was interested in and then stumbled on a review for an Optima LX Turbo.<br>It looked like it had everything I want for a good price.  I wanted a car with long lasting and inexpensive 16 inch tires and no sunroof, but with a good amount of tech features such...

Pros - It rides better then my 2015 Honda Accord hybrid suspension wise. Seats are more comfy as well to include head rest. - Surprise at the gas mileage pretty fuel efficient - Easy maintenance - Same amount of leg room in this kia then the Accord - The cabin is WAY more quiet then the Accord -...

I'm Steve... Living in the Maryland and NoVa area. Just picked up a used 2012 SX with the uvo system. In fact, we traded my people mover (Ford Econoline) for a 16 Sedona, and traded my little Focus in for my optima... So we went from two Ford's to two Kias. I'm sure I'll have plenty of...

Hi all, I'm looking to replace my old Mazda 3 and after lots of reading I've decided on a used Optima. I'm excited to get my ride. While I just created this account, I've been reading previous posts for the past weeks and your threads have been a big help and have answered a lot of my...

Hi all, I bought a used 2014 Kia optima LX. It was a 1-owner leased vehicle. I am joining this forum to get to know my car and eventually DIY update/upgrade using everyone's help here, Thanks and Regards, NK

After 2-3 weeks of watching the '16 Optima's and doing a little homework, I pulled the trigger last night and came home with a used 16' Optima LX with 14,780 miles on it and paid 14,000 (not including tax, title and paperwork fee) after negotiations. I hope my deal was decent, I feel it was...

When we picked up the car it didn't have the remote on it... Their excuse "We had to remove it from the car to certify it"... I can understand but a let down none the less since the Kia's is $600 plus.
