Im am currently thinking of buying a 2010 kia forte ex. I have been hearing mixed things on it. Some say it is good others say its a heap. What do you guys think. Plus i attend school up in NH how is it in the snow. I want to hear opinions on what you have experienced with this car. My price range i…

Why the Forte? If you’re in NH and concerned about snow handling, why not a Subaru Outback or a Honda CR-V, both with all wheel drive? For $11k you’d have to get something a few years old, but you could still get a pretty nice vehicle for that price.

the reason i was looking for a newer car that i could get a good warranty out of the kia has that 10yr/100k warranty and it has nice features like the bluetooth and heated mirrors, plus its sporty looking but i don’t knowthe vehicles your talking about are expensive and tend to have high mileage.

Reliability is a good thing to be thinking of, but a warranty is not necessarily a guarantee. The 10yr/100k warranty you mentioned is for the powertrain only, I believe. And other vehicles are as reliable or more reliable than Kias, even without a 10 yr warranty. For example, take a look at some of…

OK, poor exposition on my part. What I meant to say was: A warranty is not necessarily a measure of a vehicle’s reliability or quality. A car with a warranty can still be of poor quality and low reliability. All the warranty means is that, if certain things break within a certain time period, the…

There’s nothing wrong with a Forte. The reliability of Kia and Hyundai vehicles (virtually identical) has been improving steadily for the last ten years, and now rivals some of the best out there. You can’t beat the price or the warranty, either. Who are these people who claim the Forte is a “hea…

If you are looking to buy a brand new vehicle, keep in mind registration and insurance costs, too. I don’t know how bad these might be for your area, but here in Colorado, the registration fee is based off of a percentage of the original MSRP of the vehicle, for the first 10 years. Plus, the Kia is…

Modern Kia’s are not the same cars of the past. They are quite reliable cars as they are really rebadges of Hyundai cars (merged company). The car will likely be fine in the snow however it really depends which all-season tires it comes equipped with. If you have issues simply purchase a set( tirera…

I suspect almost all attempts to rate the reliability of cars. It is almost impossible to get good numbers. Who buys a Ford, who buys a Rolls Royce, who buys a Ford Mustang? who buys a used Pinto? Those buyers are not going to be much alike. I'd guess the Rolls Royce is going to get very goo…
