1999 Kia Sephia LS review from North America
"Reliable inexpensive and economical. A+"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with the car.
General comments?
This car has been extremely reliable for the last 7 years. I expect it to continue for another 7 years. I just had it inspected for New York State DMV and even the automotive technician remarked on how well it was running. It of course does not have the power and pick up of a 6 cylinder car, but it does move fairly quickly and does handle well at high speed. As for comfort, it is as comfortable as a $10k car can be. I enjoy driving it.
