2018 optima ex 2.4...got an excellent deal on this car $13.9k+tax with 28k miles on it practically brand new but paint needed some TLC. Has every option leather, BSM, etc except sunroof and nav. Car is much smoother than gf 2018 camry 2.5.
I was looking at Accords or Toyotas...similar spec was 10-12k more. Base Accord with similar mileage was around 4k more. I needed a car ASAP so it was either this or a base Civic lx 2.0 for 13.5k. No brainer.
Only complaint here was the tranny was underfilled out of the box. 2 D&F later with Maxlife ATF smooth as butter...No complaints on the engine, smooth quiet by typical GDI issues. The injectors are noisy as hell when cold. Not selling this car anytime soon, especially given the knock sensor warranty on the engine.
My uncles got a 2008 kia optima 2.4 with over 250k, mostly highway though. Seems like a production issue with certain years.
