What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Chevrolet Corvette
| Price of the Chevrolet Corvette: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 400-horsepower 6.0L V8 6-speed manual RWD | Hard to find a car near this performance level for the dollar. |
| Price of the Chevrolet Corvette: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 400-horsepower 6.0L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD | Costs quite a bit of money |
| 2003 | 2dr Coupe 405-horsepower 5.7L V8 6-speed manual RWD | Can get very expensive with too many options and dealers are reluctant to discount the price, but that is changing as cars with large V8 engines get harder to sell. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Kia Sorento
| Price of the Kia Sorento: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 175-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD | I bought pre owned and I couldn't find another brand SUV with the same features for the same price. Definitely a fan of the low price. |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 276-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD | Incentives are enticing 0% financing and very competitive lease options |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 276-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD | For the price, you get a very well made car |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 175-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Very competitive pricing compared to like size and equipped vehicles. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 168hp 2.5L I4 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range | Our year old range topping Sorento XT auto cost £17000. The eqivalent VW, Audi, Land Rover etc start at £30000+ for the base models. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 262-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range | For a 4wd with pretty much every option and being a 07 left over paying $20K for it was a pretty sweet deal. |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 192-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range | Best price for what you get on the market today. EX model 4x4 for 25K. No other manufacturer can match it. |
| 2003 | 4dr SUV 192-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic AWD w/low range | Because of the relatively rapid depreciation, it is a great value as a used car. |
| Price of the Kia Sorento: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr SUV 191-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Not a terribly expensive vehicle, and a good value, but in comparison to the Dodge would be significantly more expensive to get anything close to the feature set the AVP Journey has |

| 2011 | 4dr SUV 175-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Made in USA . |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 242-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |

Vehicle used high quality parts in construction. Won SUV of the year for 2004. Used actual ladder box frame, not unibody. |
| 2004 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 138hp 2.5L I4 Diesel 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
The sorentos build quality is excellent, the leather on the seats does not feel cheep and the dashboard doesnt feel plasticy, the vehicle is reliable as hell and mine hasnt had anything major done in 80,000 miles |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 276-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
All the "hard" finish on the dash is a little much. Couldn't some of the plastic have been softer? |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 276-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Felt like I was in a plastic box. A bit noisy as well. |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 276-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
some interior parts are cheap. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 168hp 2.5L I4 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
interior looks cheaper |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 262-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
Plastic inside vehicle seems low quality compared to others |
