  Amazing car all around - 2004 Toyota Matrix
  By Michael - February 6 - 1:14 pm

  Ive never owned a car I liked better. In fact, when the time came to upsize to a mini-van, I traded in my newer Honda Civic which had a lot fewer miles. The Matrix had proven itself a better car all around. This car very comfort for someone under 6 feet tall. Its robust, has tons of cargo space and gets good gas milage 27-28 mpg hwy. I use mine to commute 50 miles to work everyday and another 50 miles back home.

  More car than you may think - 2004 Toyota Matrix
  By OGscience - January 6 - 2:00 am

  I actually bought one of the first cars on the lot in 2/2002, so Ive had it for nearly two years - folks still think its brand new! Surprisingly roomy interior - fits 5 adults comfortably, to say nothing of hauling $3,000 in fundraiser candy! Very sporty handling, with "sexy" 6 speed manual transmission (teenage boys are deeply impressed by it). Its been an absolute kick to zip around in, and is a real head turner. My 16 year old son made me test drive it, and thats all it took.

  Not so great - 2004 Toyota Matrix
  By Charles Hanson - December 7 - 10:00 am

  This vehicle is designed to appeal to a market segment rather than to actually be a decent automobile. Its too tall, underpowered and doesnt live up to the Toyota reliability reputation. In short, "suck."

  Perfect Just Perfect - 2004 Toyota Matrix
  By fairheartluv - November 19 - 2:00 am

  Got the car for my daughter, I had a two door, and had to toss her in in my old car, and then climb in after her.. Now I have room! It fits a crib, a stroller, as well as many christmas items on top of that. So many nooks and crannies inside.. I love it.

  Hated the movie, love the car! - 2004 Toyota Matrix
  By DSTERP - November 19 - 2:00 am

  I was looking to replace my 94 Honda Civic after 209K miles. I liked the look of the Matrix and did a bunch of research on the net. After driving the XR model, I was happy but it wasnt until I found an XRS on the lot that I was sold!

  best tall wagon bargin - 2004 Toyota Matrix
  By littledude30542 - November 7 - 10:00 am

  I liked the matrix form the first time I saw it. It had more features than other cars that I had been looking at. The car handles great and even thought its 123hp it doesnt feel like it. I like having the massive cargo space and the security of AWD .I only paid 18,442 and thats fully loaded .Im glad I got a 2004 b/c the 2005 is a little uglier. The car has also gotten its share of compliments. i havent had 1 problem

  FUNctional Car - 2004 Toyota Matrix
  By GGREGG - October 13 - 10:00 am

  I absolutely love my Matrix. It handles very well around turns at higher speeds. The interior space is awesome! Lots of head and leg room not to mention cargo space. It has a very sporty feel inside and out. The only complaints I have are, it could be a bit more peppy with maybe a 2.0 vs. 1.8 and the gas milage could be alot better. I only get 20-25 tops. This is my first Toyota. I have had many Hondas in the past and I cant say I regret leaving Honda. I loved all of my Hondas but my Matrix has more room than the Civics and are alot more fun to drive.
