Kia Amanti Opinions

I saw the commercial for it on TV. Not bad. But online at carsdirect.com its 25k BASE, and options can make it over 29 BEFORE tax Now, the car does have a nice interior, but is it worth it? Anyone test drove it, or saw it in person?

Kia Amanti is a Jaguar knock-off like the Maxima is a GS knock-off. Any questions?

I think he means in regards to the quad headlights. Dont really see the Max/GS thing though.

My question is why does practically every single car made by Kia & hyundai need to look so hideous. I mean is it really that much cheaper to use hideous sheetmetal lines, and tacky grills than something that is more eye pleasing?

After reading about 4 reviews: the car is nice but the ride is really soft and prone to sway. The interior is nice but the 'wood' looks plasticky. The engine is leisurely about performance since this thing is big. The car shouldn't be above $28K.
