2001 Kia Sephia Base review from North America
"Much better for the money than I expected"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
Tight, quick, roomy, quiet and comfortable.
I have owned most cars on the market in the last 40 years of driving - this has the comfort and quiet of a Camry with the handling of an Accord (my previous favorite cars). I used to road race sports cars and really appreciate the flat cornering and quickness.
