We are making a final decision between a new 2019 Accord EX vs a new 2019 Optima S. Both have comparable features. Final out the door price on the Optima is 4k less. We liked the Accord better, but the 4k difference is giving us pause. Is it worth it to pay that much more? I know Kia's reliability can be iffy.

    But, Kia comes with a 10 year warranty.

    How long do you plan to keep the car?

    If it were my money, I'd go with the Accord.

    I just had an Accord and I am buying a Kia. The ride sucks and the bearings went. And they want 30 grand for a decent interior.

    But I am afraid to buy the KIA with the engine issue history.
