Pros: What do you like about 2008 Kia Optima?
Low price, classy look, lots of standard equipment.

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Kia Optima?
Defective center dome light design (it works when it wants to), visors need a spot to pull down on(I have to dig into the roof liner each time to grasp the visor), needs a quieter 4 cyl. engine, arm rest needs to be a little higher.

2008 Kia Optima Review:
Overall the car seems to be decent on gas(averaging about 27 mpg), quiet interior, main concern is the negative things I've heard about Kia and their dealerships poor reputation of honoring the warranty.
