Utility Made Cool !
The Matrix design caught my eye months ago because of how I feel it has European design. The interior looks like a hot sports car which gets a lot of peaks through my windows. The interior is comfortable and seems to maintain it's look very well. Driving the car is like you are a part of the car itself as you make the turns. The car moves with every command. For utility, simply push the seats down and go !!
A Real Head Turner!
I purchased my matrix only two days ago and I am totally impressed with it so far! It's comfortable, roomy for cargo and people and also very stylish. I love the interior chrome finish, and the premium stereo in mine is just great. I have noticed that there are rough edges on the plastic on the doors and center console (as it says in the consumer review), but for the price I think it's a very well put together car. I love the looks my solar yellow matrix gets, and it's hard to miss in a parking lot! Overall a great value. I can't believe how many extra's I got with my xr model, and this car can really pick up speed too!
The Matrix...
Great versatile car. This is the perfect marriage between a midsize sedan and a small SUV. Perfect for hauling people and things (expandable cargo space). The gas mileage is excellent and car is very roomy/comfortable (lots of headroom). I also love the driving position - you sit higher than in a sedan. Excellent value for the price paid.
Marvelous Matrix
I love my 16 yr old Matrix. Looks really good inside and out. Never has given me any mechanical issues. I hate giving her up, but I've decided it's time to update.

"shut up and drive"
Fun to drive, great head/leg/cargo room, excellent gas mileage. A little "squirrly" with strong cross- winds, and when being passed by big rigs, but otherwise handles well.
