Editor's Advice: With the 2005 Kia Amanti, the South Korean automaker is entering the premium large car segment with a nicely tailored and roomy sedan that offers plenty of standard and optional equipment for what appears to be a relative bargain. This is a car designed to appeal to Middle America: it's roomy, soft, quiet and loaded with equipment for a price south of $30,000. The Amanti even looks upscale, except for the unfortunate grille. And it comes with an outstanding powertrain warranty. Though it's a bit underpowered and Kia quality is still a big question mark according to J.D. Power & Associates, you might want to have a look at the 2005 Kia Amanti if you're also shopping for a Buick LeSabre, Mercury Grand Marquis or Toyota Avalon.
