Used 2004 Toyota Matrix XR Fwd 4dr Wagon (1.8L 4cyl 4A) Consumer Reviews
Love the Matrix XR automatic
I love my new Matrix. After waiting several weeks for delivery, I like the car even better than I expected. The engine seems quieter than the test car was. The ride is very smooth, and my Matrix (with 17-inch wheels) handles turns nicely. Overall I am extremely pleased with the car.
Fabulous car
This car is just a joy to drive. It's a mix of suv, car and station wagon. Very distinctive styling.

I love my matrix!
I love this car it's great, fun, cute, and all around wonderful. The silver trimmed dash board, the smooth ride, all the great things you can put in a car toyota did.
2 For the Road
We bought 2! 2000 4Runner lease up & air went out on 1993 Escort ~ had to get 2 vehicles. "Sacrifice" coming down from 4Runner, "Plus" coming up from Escort. Bottom line, a happy medium & long term - Toyota dependability.
Great Family Wagon
After exhaustive research and numerous test drives of the competetion I finally bought a Matrix Xr. It is the best in it's class beating the PT and Mazda P5 Hands down on comfort and ride. P5 was VERY loud and I felt EVERY bump in the road. I drove over a railroad crosing and I felt like I was in a soapbox derby car. PT felt cheap and was hard to see out of. Matrix is the right mix of a sporty car and family wagon. I think all car editors that do reviews tend to forget that not everyone NEEDS a car that can do 0-60 in 5.0 sec and take a corner at 65mph.. Who cares?!! Just give me an inexpensive, reliable and fun car to drive. Matrix fits that bill.
