They lose value quick. But, that's why I grabbed a used one with 12k miles and both luxury and technology package for $21,000. Hell of car for that price. 5yr warranty too.🤗
A trick: you can watch series at flixzone. Been using them for watching loads of movies recently.
@Lyle Andres yup, I've been using flixzone for months myself :)
I have been waiting test drives for year. As always nice review!
Great review
Ok thx Cameron!
I'm looking at a 2014 Cadenza pre-owned. We always own Honda( 2012 Pilot and 2000 Accord) and we tend to stay away from other brand besides Japanese due to reliability(our accord has 170k miles and still run). Is the Kia reliable and easy to maintain?
yes
Honestly kia is good. Underrated.
This cadenza is good but be weary of the Kia and Hyundai cars with the theta 2.4 engine and 2.0T engines they are horrible
I really love Kia's lately...but this one just already looks dated. Idk maybe if they updated the headlights and put some better wheels on it, something to match the Optima or K900, this would look like a 2014-2015 car.
Adaptive headlights and 19" alloy rims look dated to you? I'm sure enjoying mine.
Hey Cam! Will you ever be doing an Acura TSX first generation with black interior?
For ride quality, how would you compare it to the Hyundai, Toyota and Acura comparable models ?
Sjrick I think this is the same as the Hyundai Azera.
i just took a test drive and wow, its amazing !! The sheer amount of things you get as standard is incredible. The one thing that blew me away was that when i walked in to the local Kia dealer, every single cubicle was taken up with customers. My guy couldnt find a spot to talk with me. I just went to a toyota dealer today and there wasnt a customer in sight. Kia is really taking off.
its AWD?
does it compete with the Buick LaCrosse?
It sure does.
Cameron can you do Land Rover videos?
Unfortunately I have no connections with any Land Rover dealerships as of now, but in the future i will certainly try too.
How do you get the lights to strobe like that?
It's a camera trick, it's not like that in real life.
The Ford Taurus SHO kills this car in every way. It will leave the Cadenza in the dust. 3.5 twin turbo with 365 HP and 350 lb of torque. Has a great quite ride and handling for a large car. Not the mention the beautiful interior and huge trunk.
The Cadenza is better in every way. The Taurus is cheaply made and is not luxurious enough for this class at all. Plus it will not last nearly as long.
Hey look, another Taurus....YAWN.....
@@jaredshelton4718 Just got a '14 Cadenza Premium with 47K miles. Purchased an extended powertrain warranty that covers the transmission, engine and drive axles for 3 years. Should I expect to hit 100K (miles) trouble free with normal maintenance?
@@MegaEriable No, don't expect that. Mine has 176k miles on the odometer. It truly is a great vehicle but it certainly isn't saving you any money from a Mercedes or BMW. Gas mileage is horrible. Repairs are expensive. Mine has needed repairs often. And now the transmission is starting to go out. That being said, Mine has high mileage from commuting to school, and me being 19, I drive with a lead foot. The car has it's occasional rattles from the roof.....and the suspension is a bit clanky. But all in all, I've loved the car, It has a strong engine and I get lots of stares. I love my Cadenza but unfortunately I'm looking to trade in for something like a Forte or a Rio for better fuel economy.
Things I'd look out for......2 of my springs have failed....at different times, one in the front and one in the rear, just sitting parked, snapped. The chrome wheels on the SXL model like I have, they peel.....just some interior rattles and noises every once in a while, mainly on rough roads. The brakes will warp easily, seeing that they're shared with the Optima....and this is a heavier vehicle, I've gone through many rotors....again, lead foot. I think you'll be pleased with the car though.
are heated rear seats standard on all trim levels?
yes
Why is this guy revving the engine to over 5000 RPM with the car sitting still?
Cuz why tf not long as the engine is warmed up
Cameron when are you gonna do Land Rover videos?
Ill try to create an establishment with Land Rover this summer.
Camerons Car Reviews Please do startup & review 2015 Hyundai Equus. Thanx!
Cameron Did You Know The 2016 Toyota Avalon Is Revealing Tomorrow At The Chicago Auto Show
Yup!
How do you keep the Led light flickering ?
It's a camera trick, it's not like that in real life.
Why don't Americans know how to drive a manual car?
.... ;(
KINGxxWALKER auto much easier ?? I've only owned a manual trans car ... and always will
I'm an American and I can't drive a stick.
Manuals suck
the cadenza aged so quickly. that ugly steering wheel, and that old people analog clock. it looked nice back in 2013 when it came out, but now that other cars are coming out with more striking looks, and the 14-15 kia optima looking even better, it makes the cadenza look like a grandpa car.
Exactly why I bought it. Lol. Twenty years ago I would have been all over the Optima. I still ride a killer motorcycle tho....
