Good car for the money

I bought my Kia used a few years back. I'm probably the most recent reviewer on here since it is a 2001. It's not THE greatest car ever, but for a pretty inexpensive pricetag, I think it's great.
I bought it used from a dealer (I actually, NOW think I got ripped off on price) and it had 60,000 or so miles on it already. The ONLY problem I have had with it in the 3 years or so that I have owned it is that I had to replace the starter. Since then, it has run GREAT! The gas mileage is good, it's a pretty cute little car, comfortable, pretty decent stock stereo, plenty of room inside & in the trunk.
If you're looking for a car around 2,000 bucks or so, this would not be a bad choice. Of course, maybe I just got a good one, but as a 3-year owner, I've considered buying the new Sportage (so much better than the old one!) b/c I've had a good experience with Kias thus far.
