    This little car is an awesome performer. I have put 46,000 to date with out any returns to the dealer for anything. The only complaint I have with this car is that I feel Toyota should look into using a more forgiving paint, As for the car has more paint ship down to the bare metal than for Ford Contour had after 150,000 miles. I would reccomend this car to anyone. Great Car.

    I bought a 2004 Toyota Matrix and it is great. I drive with it everywhere I go. It truly holds everything you will ever need and even holds my 7 foot christmas tree (picked it out already for christmas, early, I know. You can fold down either one of the back seats and even the front seat. There is plenty of leg room for my kids who love to go on long drives in the counrty. We all love our new matrix. Now we call it "The Return Of The Matrix"

    I really like my Matrix. It looks small on the outside but its really spacious.I like the way it rides, and how fast it picks up speed.

    My first foreign car. I love it! Great mileage, ease of handling, eye catcher. Hope to have it a long time.

    The Matrix XRS is quick, nimble, and comfortable. I could spend all day driving through the twisties... and I have tried, but have yet to find to edge of the latteral grip envelope. This thing sticks like glue! Top speed to date is 118 with more left in her. The rear hatch open two ways, and is great for hauling groceries or surfboards. Best of all, after 20,000 miles the only problem Ive had was a squeaky auxilory drive (belt was too tight) that Toyota replaced without hassle.

  • Great Car!! - 2004 Toyota Matrix

    Went on a 1,000 mile trip and loved it. The car handles great, got 38mpg with the cruise set at 74MPH. The car has plenty of power for my needs. Never lost speed on hills, the cruise maintained its setting. Plenty of interior space and fun to drive. The ride is quite comfortable and the cabin is quiet. After always having SUVs I am glad I made this switch.

    Has been the best car Ive ever owned. Mileage usually about 30mpg, sometimes more if highway only driving. GREAT cornering and handling ability. Fun to drive with enough power to pass safely in reasonable situations. Back seats lower flat instead of the SUVs that dont go all the way down flat, so is great for cargo. A truly great vehicle!

    First let me say that I have always purchased American made vehicles and was skeptical about buying a Foreign made car. Before buying my Matrix, I used edmunds.com and other sites and did many hours of research. It wasnt until I saw and test drove the Matrix that I realized what I was missing!! When you first sit in this car, it has the feeling of a mini-van. The Matrix handles curves like a dream and is very fun to drive. I paid $16,388.00 for the base model which has an automatic transmission, cruise, A/C, power door,power locks and stereo with C/D player. The floor mats are even good quality and look snazzy with Matrix written at the corners!!!
