    This is my first new car and I love it. I also looked at the Corolla and Saturn Ion. I chose the Matrix because it gave me all of the room of an SUV but with the costs of a car. It is really fun to drive and I find it very versitile. Make sure you get the "weather" package to get the rear window wiper if you live in a snowy area since it doesnt come standard. I really like the feel of this car, Im an average height person and can see easily out of all of the windows. I love my car!

    I am really enjoying my new Matrix. I have driven it over 1000 miles now, in the city and on the highway and its been great. Everything that is said in the reviews is spot on, even their complaints (which arent enough to make me dislike the car.) The highway performance is better than I expected from the reviews however.

    The day I test drive that car I decided to buy it, because the matrix is somethign else in my opinion its very very smoot ride car specally for a long trip. Its fun to drive you never get tired of driving it.

    Im a single female in my mid twenties with no kids. So although I didnt need anything really large, I dont like small vehicles. I wanted something decently priced, sporty and fun, yet reliable. I found this car to be fun and funky, yet sensible. All the toyotas Ive had as well as other peoples have run for up to a couple hundred thous miles. Its fwd and theres room for my mtn bike. Its as large as some SUVs but with much cheaper insurance.

    This car is great for everything! Couldnt ask for a more practical car and fun at the same time.

    Great commuter car with alot of versatility for errands. Extremely functional, and even though targeted for younger consumers(IE Gen X, Y, & Zers), I have found that it works for me at 42. Nice alternative to an SUV, plus better gas mileage and it still handles in the snow. Fun to drive & both my dogs love it too!

  • I GOTTA HAND IT TO "YOTA" - 2004 Toyota Matrix
    By -

    Ive had my Matix XR since Dec,03. Ive had absolutly no issues with this car Windows are blacked out for the most part and Ive had the dealership TRD kitted (lowering springs) for warranty purposes, MAN WHAT A DIFFERENCE folks when headin down the highway or drivin in SF. Its made all the difference. Over all I love the car its been a blessing to me, specially how I fell into it, wonderful deal and interest rate. I had buyers remorse at first, just very glad i didnt trade it in for something else. Peace Davy D

    I love this car, it gives you an image all your own. Though it may be a little noisy and not enough power to beat a sports car, it has space. alot of it. Has many nice features. Its a utility vehicle in a sports car meet wagon package. Its unique, and its great.
