2003 Toyota Matrix XR review from North America
"The best car in the World"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with my matrix, knock on wood.
General comments?
The Matrix is a wonderful car. I have never had a car that has everything I have ever wanted in a car until this one. The function of an SUV, the ride of a car, the looks of a sports car. The car looks great and is a great machine to own. The nice thing about the matrix vs other cars is the look of it. It is so different looking that you very rarely see another car that looks like, except for the vibe which is a collaboration between toyota and pontiac. I highly recomend this car to anyone who wants a little bit of both in a vehicle.
