Used 2005 Toyota Matrix Consumer Reviews
Super Cool
The Matrix feels like an SUV, but it is very low to the ground so there's a low risk of rolling over. It looks very sporty and feels very nice to drive. It is, afterall, a Toyota-- what more could one ask for?
2004 Toyota Matrix XRS
The Toyota Matrix XRS is a real unique car. Its hard to classify what it is. Is it a car, wagon, or suv? People have called it a cuv, which is crossover utility vehicle. I'm really pleased to have purchase this car. I always get compliments from strangers.

Owned now for one year, drove 15,000 miles, I love my Matrix!! great on gas, fun to drive, zips in and out of traffic, I never bought anything that would not fit into the car!!! Toyota has a real winner here!!! I have had 8 back surgeries and the height and comfort of the seats is great,mine is an automatic, I get between 30- 35 mpg depending on my lead foot, a true driving pleasure!!!!

Mazda3 Hatchback vs. Toyota Matrix
This is a great looking car that handles great, and is very versitile. The Mazda3 is quite comparable, but it has a bigger engine (2.3L vs. 1.8L)and is also 5 inches longer. The matrix however sits higher the mazda which is great if you hate sitting in trafic and having low visability. It is higher then sedans and slighly lower then a Rav4 in terms of seating. Matrix is slightly wider and taller then the mazda3. Unfortunately I did not get to test drive a mazda3 before I purchased this car, as I fell in love with it the moment I took it for a test drive. It won out when I test drove a Rav4 and a camary before this one. Very comfortable seats, great for long trips. Toyota = Reliable!!
