Nice  Clean 2003 Kia Optima
It has a rebuilt title 
It was in a rear end collision in 2008 
It has been repaired properly as seen by the two year old tires that are wearing evenly
The car had 52,000 miles on it when involved in the accident
It has been painted Cadillac Pearl White
PPG Paint with several clear coats
  The paint is real nice but shows wear on the two rear pillars as shown in photos.
This was a Arizona car so no rust
The car has never seen snow
Run great everything works  The only problem is the right passenger window goes up slow.  
Also it has a small chip in the windshield less then the size of a dime

It has a Roadmaster Base Plate for towing behind a motorhome

I have included the service manuals for a 2002 Kia Optima, nothing has changed for 2003


Since we have owned the car at 52,000 miles I have only used synthetic oil

We also put in a new clutch and flywheel at 60,000 miles

At 60,000 we installed a new timing belt as per the kia service requirements

At 75,000 miles tune up with new plugs and ignition wires

I also installed a K&N air filter



Yes the roadmaster arms are included in the auction.  I have added the photo



The car drive great no funny noise

No one has ever smoked in the car

We have the title in hand


I am not opposed to ending the auction for the right offer, as long as there are no bids




Any questions call Bob 301-404-1787

EPA says it will more closely monitor fuel economy claims from automakers

Fri, 15 Feb 2013

The unintended acceleration brouhaha at Toyota led to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration tightening the vise on recall procedures. Likewise, the fuel economy kerfuffle that blew up with Hyundai and Kia's admission of overstated fuel mileage claims could lead to the Environmental Protection Agency policing automaker assertions by performing more audits.
At least, that's what a senior engineer with the government agency said while in Michigan giving a talk, according to a report in Automotive News. What that actually means, however, is still in question. Just ten to 15 percent of new vehicles - something like 150 to 200 cars per year - are rested by the EPA to verify automaker numbers. The EPA's own tests include a "fudge factor" to adjust lab mileage for real-world mileage, and the agency still relies on automakers to submit data for tests that it doesn't have the facilities to perform. How much more auditing can the EPA really expect to do, or perhaps a more relevant question would be how much more accurate could the EPA's audits become?
The price of gasoline, the psychological importance of 40 miles per gallon to a frugal car buyer, an automaker wanting to further justify the price premium of a hybrid, all of these things contribute to fuel economy numbers that insist on creeping upward. Perhaps the senior engineer encapsulated the whole situation best when he said, "Everybody wants a label that tells you exactly what you're going to get, but obviously that's not possible. A good general rule of thumb is that real-world fuel economy is about 20 percent lower than the lab numbers." If the lesson isn't exactly 'buyer beware,' it's at least 'buyer be wary.'

Dancer who portrays Kia hamster guilty of disability fraud

Thu, 05 Jun 2014

Tisk, tisk, dancing hamster. Kia's trio of anthropomorphic rodents may be down a member as the actor that portrays one of the dancing hamsters has been arrested on charges of disability fraud.
According to The Huffington Post, 27-year-old LeRoy Barnes accepted over $51,000 in disability payments following a workplace injury in 2010. While accepting the money, he's accused of performing under aliases, in addition to his costumed work for Kia.
"Fraudulently collecting disability benefits is not only illegal, it disrespects legitimately injured Californians who are unable to work," Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones said in a release obtained by HuffPo.

Dancer who portrays Kia hamster accused of disability fraud

Tsk, tsk, dancing hamster. Kia's trio of anthropomorphic rodents may be down a member, as the actor that portrays one of the dancing hamsters has been arrested on charges of disability fraud. According to The Huffington Post, 27-year-old LeRoy Barnes accepted over $51,000 in disability payments following a workplace injury in 2010. While accepting the money, he's accused of performing under aliases, in addition to his costumed work for Kia. "Fraudulently collecting disability benefits is not only illegal, it disrespects legitimately injured Californians who are unable to work," Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones said in a release obtained by HuffPo. Barnes was arrested back in March and posted $50,000 in bail the following day.
