Default The Matrix has me...

Well I got fed up with the tC. It's seriously got to be the biggest piece of crap I've ever owned... I don't know why I ever even bought it. I decided to trade it in on this beyooootiful piece of work right here....





I can't believe I didn't get one of these instead, it's friggin awesome!!! So, bye bye tC... helloooooooooooo Matrix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



















Just kidding. I dropped off my tC just a few minutes ago to get the airbag recall done. It hasn't even been an hour and I'm already missing my car. I can't pick it up until tomorrow, because I'm working 1-9 tonight I'm goin nuts already

Yeah, if there was a disappointment in Toyota's current lineup, it'd be the Matrix, not the tC

Damn you Nikki!

Though the Matrixes (Matricies?) are nice, I couldn't see trading a tC for one.

Hmm... I haven't received my recall notice yet though. I wonder what I'll get to drive around!

I was looking at Matrices too. The Corolla, tC and Matrix are all roughly in the same price range so I weighed between the three a lot. Of the three, the Matrix definitely seemed like the worst deal. It was about $2k more to get it comparably equipped, and what really got me was that cheap ___ interior. The Corolla S's interior is my favorite of the three, I like (but don't love) the tC's interior, but the Matrix interior is just crap.

Don't worry, you'll figure out when you've finally lost it when you suddenly and unknowingly find yourself at some Matrix forums one day!

The Matrix XRS is the only matrix i somehwat like. Im not a huge fan of the wagon look, but the xrs comes with the bigger engine, VVTL-i and 6speed. The interior as stated above it kinda crappy feeling/looking but meh. My best friend has one so yeah xD Its a nifty little car. And it pulls on the tC Started pulling on me at 65-70, the matrix being stock and i have intake/exhaust.

Oh this one was an xr... with the 3 speed automatic... I don't think it could have gotten out of it's own way honestly lol. I was SOOOOOOOOO glad to have my tC back.
