I took this video yesterday of the car itself, up close, the features, room, and with it starting and running, random little things. I apologize for it's length, it's just under 20 minutes, but I wanted it to feel like you sort of took the test drive yourself. Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_cz3lwAqUY&feature=youtube_gdata

Fresh oil change and transmission fluid. New headlight and fog light bulbs. New engine air filter. The brakes were completely replaced about 3 years ago.

Trunk has TONS of room. Retractable cover included, with original Kia trunk liner (see photo). It holds tons of stuff, and if you want ou can fold the middle seats down completely flat and have twice the space. Drives beautifully and smooth, and is FANTASTIC in snow. A few years ago, 16 inches of snow fell overnight at my house. Parked in our driveway was my Sorento, my friend's Ford Edge and my mother's Pontiac Aztec. My Sorento pulled right out of the driveway with no problem, while we had to shovel the other two SUVs out!! They were stuck!! Mine wasn't :)
The vehicle has been 100% reliable to me for 6 years, and the Kelly Blue Book value for this car is about $6,600 in a private party sale in "good condition".
"If it's so great you say, then why are you selling it?" is what I'm asked. And the answer is one reason and one reason only and it starts with the letter H. A big H. We bought a HOUSE! And in a month I have to make mortgage payments. Please write me and let me know if you are interested. I'm in the Lehigh Valley, Delaware Valley & New Jersey all the time if you'd like to meet up and see the car in person.

A/C just Recharged today (5/29/13) by my mechanic -- now ICE COLD -- you're set for the summer!
On May-29-13 at 12:27:57 PDT, seller added the following information:
Forgot to add that the rear lift gate glass opens (see photo) with the touch of a button on the driver's door. I'm sure there's more things I'm forgetting and I'll be uploading more photos during the next few days and adding more information. It's 92 degrees here, I just drove the car a bit and the A/C blew ice cold. Really, really good.
Also, did you check out the Youtube "test drive" video? If you're serious about purchasing this car you should watch it. I apologize for how long it is, I just wanted to cover as much as I could:

So I've have had a couple questions about the condition of the paint. While it was just detailed, there are some scratches (being a 9 year old car) on the hood and one here or there on the side, but nothing major.

Another thing I forgot to add, there is a roof mounted rear spoiler with a brake light near the roof rack :)

2014 Cadenza is Kia's take on the Hyundai Azera
Tue, 15 Jan 2013No, this is not the oh-so pleasantly named Quoris rear-wheel-drive flagship sedan - this is Kia's new front-drive entry into the North American market, the Cadenza. (If that sounds familiar, it's because Kia has long used the Cadenza name in other markets.) And while it's a sharp-looking thing, it's not exactly an original masterpiece. Peel away that slick exterior and you'll find a trusty Hyundai Azera doing the grunt work.
That's no bad thing, though; the Azera's a smooth-sailing sedan. Under the hood is a 3.3-liter direct-injection V6 putting out 293 horsepower and 255 pound-feet of torque, mated to a six-speed automatic transmission with, oh yes, Sportmatic manual mode. That power hits the ground via a sport-tuned suspension with MacPherson struts up front and a multi-link rear configuration, matched with either 18- or 19-inch alloy wheels.
Inside, there's a whole host of nice leather surrounded by wood and chrome accents, with a driver-focused cockpit (sort of like the Optima) with a seven-inch TFT color touchscreen display. Premium options include things like Nappa leather seats, a panoramic sunroof, Kia's UVO infotainment system, HID headlamps with active lighting, heated seats and a heated steering wheel. Sounds comfy.
Kia debuts Forte 5-door with available 201-HP turbo engine
Thu, 07 Feb 2013The US-bound 2014 Kia Forte first showed up in sedan form back at the LA Auto Show last year, but Kia unveiled the hatchback version of the car today at the Chicago Auto Show. Unlike the current Forte five-door the 2014 will feature styling that is distinct from its sedan counterpart, but the big news is it will also get a few extra ponies under the hood.
Since the Forte five-door will only be offered in EX and SX trim, the sedan's 1.8-liter inline-four is not offered on this model. The base engine in the EX is the 2.0-liter direct-injected four, producing 173 horsepower and 154 pound-feet of torque. Those looking for more power should check out the Forte SX, which uses the 1.6-liter turbocharged engine currently found in the Hyundai Veloster Turbo. This engine produces 201 hp and 195 lb-ft, and it can be paired to either a six-speed manual or automatic transmission; the latter of which is optional and comes with paddle shifters.
Aside from the obvious styling changes required for the added cargo area, the 2014 Kia Forte five-door gets numerous design elements to set it apart from the sedan. The face of the new hatchback will get a much smaller tiger-nose grille than the sedan, but it will get a larger lower intake, which we can't help but compare to the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo. Kia also gave the Forte dual exhaust outlets and LED taillights, and the SX model will get stylish 18-inch wheels. Inside, the five-door design allows the Forte to increase its cargo volume to 23.2 cubic feet, and the cabin can also be equipped with features such as heated front seats, ventilated driver's seat, navigation, leather seating and dual-zone climate control.
Kia confirms $1B factory in Mexico to be completed in 2016
Fri, 29 Aug 2014Kia is the latest in a string of automakers to announce plans to build new or expanded factories in Mexico. The Korean company has signed a $1 billion deal to establish a plant in Monterrey in the state of Nuevo León, with construction starting in late September. If everything proceeds on schedule, the facility should be complete in the first half of 2016 and be able to produce 300,000 vehicles a year.
The $1-billion investment will create a "new, highly automated manufacturing plant," according to Kia's announcement, a facility covering 1,235 acres of land. Confirming earlier rumors, Kia will produce compact models there, but the company won't reveal specific model names, just yet. When complete, the factory in Mexico will boost the automaker's annual capacity to 3.37 million vehicles a year with 1.69 million of those in Korea and 1.68 million abroad. It will also join Kia's plant in Georgia (where the Optima and Sorento are made) as the business' other North American location.
Kia hasn't kept plans for the Mexican factory a very close secret and openly admitted it was "being considered as a possible location" to Autoblog. The country was chosen partially because of its free-trade agreements (read: NAFTA), that make it less costly to move models elsewhere, not to mention its easy access to the North, Central and South American markets. The new plant should also alleviate some of the tight supply issues Kia has had in the US.
