We were looking at trading it in on a new kia optima.. they have excellent crash ratings etc.. which is very important to her and me too... What do u guys think of those cars?

I had a 2001 I bought for my daughter off My Dad who bought it new. He really didn't have that much trouble with it engine/trans wise outside of a few sensors and replacing the timing belt a couple of times but the little nickel dime stuff like a handle here, a knob there, a power window here, only one on working there..., paint coming off this mirror and that handle etc etc. This car was ALWYAS garage kept and no one rode in it 90% of the time because it was his work car. I sold it with 150,000 on it but never really liked it. Cheaply made in my opinion and is truly designed as a "disposable" car. Even though it still looked nice, It was done!
If your looking in the Korean market, Hyundai is hands down better in my opinion.
