    I first rented this car last summer for 2 weeks and was sad when I had to return it. At that time I decided it would be my next car. It drives like a peppy small car but with the fold down seats it is like a small truck. it carries everything I need for remodeling projects or just fun shopping trips!

    I find the 2004 matrix XR with auto trans a very sporty, attention getting vehicle. I bought it used with 6000 miles on it and have driven it in city and Highway modes. The only problem I had was a persistent "buzz" like rattle from under the left side of the dashboard. My selected Toyota dealer repaired it under warranty. It has ample power, though somewhat noisy engine on hard acceleration. The seats are comfortable and the driving position is ok as well. I highly recommend the vehicle.

    I just picked up my 2004 Matrix RXS the other day and I LOVE it. It is bigger than I expected,roomey like a small SUV.Very diferent body style so you dont see yourself coming and going. I got the 6 speed manual trans with the 180 horse power. It handles like a sports car and can really get out of its own way. Reasonably priced and you cant beat a Toyota for reliability.

    I just bought this car and I havent regretted buying it for one minute! It has the sleek sporty look of a sports car with the room of an SUV! The ride is so smooth its almost like youre floating. And the gas mileage! I have to use my car for my job, so I do a lot of inner city driving. I only have to fill up once a week and it doesnt put a dent in my pockets. I never got such great mileage with my Corolla!

    I highly recommend the Toyota Matrix. Ive had mine almost 18 months and have enjoyed the experience. The Matrix has typical Toyota reliability, but its roominess and build allow you to use it for hauling many things or just taking lots of luggage on vacation.

  • 2004 Martix, So Far, A Great Deal - 2004 Toyota Matrix
    By -

    After much research I purchased a 2004 Matrix,base model with the power package,I got it for under $15,000 before the TT&L.I have added mud guards and am going to get the windows tinted.So far I am very pleased with it.It is ideal for hauling stuff, has a sporty look, plenty of room for passengers and is economical to run.This is one vehicle I can say I have fallen in love with, it is a lot for the money.I read it had a noisy engine,which it does,and that the dash dials can be hard to read in the sun light and that was true also but overall it is ideal for my situation.
