Used 2008 Toyota Matrix XR for Sale near Apache Junction, AZ

Acceleration is great, braking is superb.

Drove this car on a daily basis for close to 5 years. It was a wonderful handling car with plenty of room for the family but enough pep to keep me happy. Fuel mileage was about 29MPG overall, which was more than enough for me.

Overall I like it a lot, it doesn't have performance but I never expected it to. It has pretty good gas mileage and handles pretty well. It is very spacious which is also why I got it.

Another great car from Toyota, good performance, interior space and easy manoeuvres

Power is there but you have to spend a lot of time on the skinny pedal but what else would you expect from a 1.8L making 130 hp? I usually spend a lot of time in the driver's seat but I got to sit in the back row when my friend drove and wow, its really big and comfortable even with the front seats reclined. The sound system is great, I have the 5 disc with 6 speaker combination and the sound is crisp, although it could use a subwoofer. The height of the car is great for a great driving view, I can see everything on the road. At highway speeds, the car is a little noisy but I can blame that on the optional moonroof that I have, maybe a Wind reflector might come in handy in the future. The luggage area can hold a lot of bags as I've made a lot of visits to the airport to pick up friends. Gas mileage is iffy but I have a heavy right foot and I'm trying to fix that.
