Bought my wife a 2013 Kia Optima in August. Power windows, cruise, hands free integration satellite/bluetooth radio, no sunroof or power seats.

We agreed on just under $19K and with the trade we owed a bit on, we financed $16K for 60 months at 1.9%.

She had a 2009 Dodge Charger SRT that had the Hemi 396HP. It was a BEAST. But so was the $476 monthly car note. Her note now is $295, and she saves over $100/month in gas alone.

The thing that put me over the top with Kia was the 60K bumper to bumper warranty and an100K on the power train. Several years of free maintenance in the negotiation was sweet as well.

No need to overspend on a car like that. They hired Audi's design guy so their interiror and exteriors are very impressive.

Give me a look brah.

I think the Kia optimas are pretty nice as well but all of you guys keep saying "I bought my wife so and so car.." And that just enhances the stereotype I have against certain cars that seem to be driven by mostly women
