What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2003 Kia Spectra have mixed feelings about their experiences. Many appreciated its affordability, good gas mileage, and reliability, while some expressed frustration with handling issues and performance at high speeds. A few drivers regret trading it in, highlighting its fun factor, but others found problems with transmission and comfort at higher speeds."
I love this vehicle. It is a great road vehicle and it has great Performance, Build Quality, Appearance, Cost of Ownership, and Fun Factor. this car has great gas mileage. It is also very fun to drive. The cost is low, too.
October 1, 2009only 73,000 miles, no rust, runs great, 27 MPG, good brakes, good acceleration, clean inside and out. clean engine.
May 20, 2008I loved my Kia Spectra. As funny as she may have looked. Opposite of a mullet I called it. Party in the front bussiness in the back. Only problem I had was one head light blew out twice, I accidently kicked something and the a/c went down, had her fixed up though. I should have not traded it for the Saturn. BIG mistake, and live with regret!

May 7, 2010Have only had this car for a month now. bought it at 62,000 miles. overall it drives fine. gets me from point A to point B for a good price, good gas mileage, much better than my old 96 mazda millenia
April 1, 2008The car has an acquired look to it but that is unfortunately the best part of the car. The handling is horrible, issues with the window seals, transmission and suspension make this a very difficult car to cope with when one is used to going over 75 mph. Cost of ownership is directly related to how fast one drives; the faster you go, the fast the car falls apart. The fuel mileage is horrible, maybe 10 to 15 mpg.
