Pros: What do you like about 2007 Kia Sportage?
Smooth, quiet, reasonably powerful V6, good suspension, great versatility, looks funky, awesome safety features, excellent ride quality for an SUV-in fact better than most.

Priced reasonably unlike its competitors and also a great sized vehicle.

We just wanted something that worked well and looked good - it's an SUV not a sports car or an Off road full timer, so for what it is its perfect.

There are $40,000 SUVs out there that are inferior in many ways to the Sportage...but you will create an image of wealth due to the fact that you've purchased a substandard vehicle for heaps of money. People will know you've had no time to properly research your choice and assume you must be too busy working to make an informed choice ........ Or maybe not!

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Kia Sportage?
Na for an SUV it does what it has to do, and looks good doing it.

BTW it's quicker than any 4cyl non turbo option out there and most fall within that category. I wonder how that guy with the $35,000 Forrester felt when I dusted him off with ease? Hmmm I recon he wished he bought the XT turbo version for $40,000....sorry mate I paid $20,000 for mine.

2007 Kia Sportage Review:
My sports car: Nissan Skyline GTR.
My Off road buggy: Jeep Wrangler.
My SUV: Kia Sportage.

....and NEVER should the three combine! Cough XmercedesMLAMGX splutter!

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Kia Sportage?
Great warranty.
Excellent interior room and storage.
Contemporary design.
Automatic with manual shift option is useful.
Good value for the money.

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Kia Sportage?
Needs a better engine.
4 cylinder is underpowered for passing and merging.
6 cylinder is not much better.
Gas mileage is acceptable but falls sharply when AWD is added.
Use winter tires on FWD model.
Be sure to service the brakes as per maintenance schedule.

2007 Kia Sportage Review:
After 50000kms-Overall, it provides good transportation for the money.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Kia Sportage?
It has a nice overall appearance and looks more expensive than it is. The Sportage is a comfortable mid-sized SUV and for its' size gets a respectful MPG range.

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Kia Sportage?
A little more power would be nice.

2007 Kia Sportage Review:
A great deal for the money. Build well and looks like it should cost more than it does. For the price... Best value out there.

My check engine light keeps coming on and I have to get my Kia back to the dealer already :-( The gas cap may be the culprit, but very annoying after just one week of new car honeymoon!

2007 Kia Sportage Review:
After the check engine problem is resolved I am sure I'll be able to give my Kia a full "5".
