What Owners are Saying About the 2006 Kia Spectra
"Best Vehicle To Own. Trusted. Reliable."
"I received this car shortly after I got my license with 94k miles. Since then it has survived with zero problems through 3 harsh Minnesota winters, and trust me, they can get bad, through those winters the car was driven on hellish roads. Gotten stuck in snow a multitude of times. Through all that, only one minor problem which was a cheap fix. I put it through the worst, it definitely deserved better. I recently took it on a road trip from Minnesota all the way down to California and it made it perfectly with no problems whatsoever. Now at over 120k miles, it was involved in a rear end accident which deemed it totaled. I completely trust on my life that the car would last at least another 120k. Hardy and a trooper, I will sincerely miss this car. Dependable and I would highly recommend it."
"Very economical and comfortable."
"My wife and I bought this car used in2012.It had approximately 43000 miles on it.My wife drove it until2016. I have driven it since2016.We have kept it properly maintained.It is still reliable inexpensive transportation.Everything still works as it should including ice cold air."
"10.5 years and going strong!"
"I bought this car used June, 2010 18k miles on it. I have drove it for 10 years and 4 months. Through the years I've replaced a few parts never going over $400 and it's been the best car I could ask for. I'm trading it in tomorrow and this baby has exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended!"
