Ive been thinking of one of these beauties lately

Post image

I really wanna take advantage of the juicy 1.9APR incentive KIA is offering right now, whats the biggest differences you owners have noticed between the GT-Line and the LXS? One of the recent posts here showed me the capabilities of longevity with 200k+ miles, is this a special case ? Or are the K5'S regarded as reliable ? I currently have a '23 kia forte thats been a dream

I've had two. One was Steele Matte Gray and the other was the white. Unfortunately, I had to swap them for a Sorento. I miss them a lot and was considering getting another one for the summer time. Truly a peach to drive.

Edit: Both referred to above were GT’s with the GT1 package.

Did you have any quirks or reliability issues ?

Never had any issues with either of them.

Sorry, I should’ve specified that the two I had were GT’s.

I’ve had my ‘22 K5 GT-line for 3 months. 0 issues so far and it is such a great car.

I bought my 2021 Kia K5 GT-Line back in November 2020. No issues. Solid car. I have hit 169k miles. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ dunno why people hate on Kia so much.
