2003 Kia Spectra Base review from North America
"A great car for a great price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing at all.
General comments?
The Service dealer for the car is really slow it took them four hours to change the oil.
This car is very slow acceleration.
Should get better gas mileage than it get for being a four cylinder engine, the car only get 24 Miles per Gallon.
Not a very comfortable car, the seats are very firm.
Runs great, seems to last.
Get a lot for a little price tag.
Great Air conditioning, it gets cold very fast, and blows nice and hard.
Better than the over priced Honda Civic.
Not bad looking of a car either.
