Kia K5 GT, or GT line?

Hello! I’m looking for a K5. I’m in love with the body; I just test drove a GT about a week ago and fell in love even more. I understand the distinction between GT and GT-line. But I need your own view. I’m a 21-year-old male who works as a nurse. So I’m not driving as much, and some of you drive maybe 10-15 thousand miles each year. As previously said, I test drove a GT and was impressed with its speed. But I’m not sure what I should do. I’ll probably acquire the GT, but I’d like some feedback. Thanks!

I have a ‘22 GT with GT1, I love it, and I live in Ohio so we get winters. If you liked the GT speed you will be disappointed with the GT-line.

Personally I like the 110 extra horsepower.

I’m 22 and went with a 2022 Gt-line AWD over a GT since I live in the Midwest and get some pretty heavy snow, it was also better for me long term with a lower car payment. So those were some pretty important factors in my car buying experience. But I’ve been in love with the car since I drove it off the lot, and it may not be as fast as the GT, but it handles amazingly.

Overall, I’d say go with whichever one you’d be happiest with a couple years from now, taking into account your current situation and everything that comes with buying a car and driving it regularly.

Thanks for ur input :slight_smile: I also live in the Midwest so maybe I should look into that. You have all valid points.

I recently got the 25 GT and absolutely love it. Just hate that it’s FWD…

How much are they selling the GT in your area?
