Plainest little car you'll ever love
Pros: Reliability
Cons: Appearance
This is my second 'base model' Kia Rio, I love it! Never have to drop a gear going up big hills. I like the simplicity, feeling the road, and reliability. My last Kia didn't owe me a dime when I finally traded it at 130k. Great warranty, nice car as long as your ego isn't hooked to the cool factor of your ride.Kia Rio

Good basic transportation, the steel wheels are easily bent on bad roads and quite pricey to replace. Very little maintance and starts very well even in cold weather. All over the high fuel prices this is a good comuter car average 30 MPG.its a good car
