    The Matrix is a cross between a SUV and a Station Wagon. Driving it you feel the size and security of an SUV but you have the economy of a ecomomy car...

  • Great Vehicle - 2003 Toyota Matrix

    This is my first car and it has been great. There is adaquate power and the handling is great, considering a 16 year old driver owns it. This vehicle could use an optional subwoffer, otherwise it is an excellent vehicle.

  • Fun Car - 2003 Toyota Matrix
    By -

    Very fun car to drive, tons of room, lots of great features not found on comparable cars: the hatch glass opens independently of hatch, wall type outlet, auto sensing lights, passenger seat folds flat, etc. Great mpg, I commute 120 miles a day, all highway, I average 33 mpg at 70 mph. Acceleration stinks but this is not a sports car, its a wagon. Like a car, it is not perfect - I currently have 130,000 miles, cat converter went bad at 120K, locks are starting to fail - they do not respond to keychain. AC condensation hose came loose under dash and passenger side carpet got soaked (everyone thought it was the sunroof but it wasnt). But still an awesome car.

    I love this car. I drove an Audi A4 for a few years and thought buying a toyota would be a little bit of a drop in class. I was wrong this car is sportier and a great buy. It is perfect for the modern working person, fun to drive and I would recommend that anyone intrested in a fun sport car that wont set you back $30,000 to try this Matrix you will love it.

  • Everything that it should be and more. - 2003 Toyota Matrix
    By -

    I bought my Matrix because I wanted something fun for weekends and stress reduction. My main mode of transportation is a company issued Pontiac Aztek that I drive to and from work. The Matrix, even the XRS, is an extreme value. It may look small on the outside, but can hold a lot of cargo. The 6 speed manual is great, but first time manual drivers beware there is a high learning curve. Due to the design of the engine (low torque) more revs are needed to take off from a stop. My girlfriends 5 speed 01 corolla is a cake walk compared to my Matrix. I enjoy the expertise the car demands. When driven correctly the rewards are plenty.
