2003 Toyota Matrix XRS. 6 speed manual transmission. The first owner was my father, I am the second owner, you are the third. Sweet sliding and tilting sun roof works perfectly and does not leak. The cool cargo nets and cargo straps that only came with this model (I think) are present and will be included for an extra $5,000. -I'm joking, of course. They are included...for free...really. The tires are somewhat new (maybe a year?). I got a new clutch in July. Since the clutch, I've MAYBE put 700 miles on it. Both front brake rotors are new (also in July). I've always had generic plastic floor mats covering the stock Matrix floor mats, so those puppies are in rather decent shape for being 10 years old. The car is presently dirty. It's getting to be cold here, and I have not taken it to a car wash, yet. Don't let the little bit of dirt in the pictures scare you off.
It can be quick when you need it to be so. When you find a transmission to throw in this baby, you're gonna have a fun and solid car for another 155,000 miles. This engine is strong. I LOVE this car. I planned on driving it till my kid becomes old enough to drive, but I had to get a pick-up truck for work. So this must go. The gas mileage is anywhere from 30 to 35 miles a gallon. Man am I gonna miss THAT. This car is NOT all wheel drive, in case that's what you're looking for. There is a small ding on the passenger side front quarter panel from a misplayed baseball. I don't think this car has ever been in an accident. There is what looks like a cigarette burn hole in the front passenger seat, but my father swore it was NOT from a cigarette...in fact he could not tell me what it was from when I bought it from him, but in the 9 years since that hole magically appeared, it has not grown. The plastic on the inside of the back hatch is cracked - I think there's even a small hole in it, actually. A fog lamp is out. The headlights need to be "cleared", if you know what I mean. -They have that haze, is all. The exhaust leak is annoying. The parking brake that does not work is also annoying. That panel on the inside driver's side door that contains all the power window and power lock controls is loose...that's kind of annoying, too. One or two lines in the rear window defroster are dead. Sometimes a few of the lights on the radio face go dim. The front ground-effect-spoiler-thing snapped off when I hit some debris on the freeway a few years ago. The car certainly lost some of it's good looks when that happened, but I could never justify getting it replaced as I am not made of money. All the cool amenities like the multiple power outlets, the little compartments to hide crap, the fold away drink holders, etc...are all intact. I'm telling you...this car is awesome. All the little annoying things are to be expected from a 10 year old car; and I don't believe they take the value down much. The lame transmission, however, is a different story. I THINK a new used tranny, installed, will run you between $1200 and $1800. My goal is not to screw you, here. I've listed about everything wrong that I can think of. I truly believe this car has only lived half its life. A new transmission and you're golden for another 10 years. Hit me with questions or if you want other pictures, I can certainly email them to you. |

2023 Japan Mobility Show Editors' Picks
Tue, Oct 31 2023No, it's no longer called the Tokyo Motor Show, but the Japan Mobility Show is still in Tokyo and it still has to do with motors. In fact, with the rise of EVs, it's more of a motor show than ever before. And there were an astounding number of motors (and engines) to see, or at least concepts that hypothetically have them. Truly, we haven't seen a turnout this amazing since before the pandemic. As such, the 2023 Japan Mobility Show featured plenty of machines that could, and did, snag points from our editors. And yet, even with the massive field, one car, unequivocally, stole our hearts. Read on to see our favorites.  Toyota Land Cruiser Se concept View 4 Photos 5. (Tie) Toyota Land Cruiser Se While this concept is not quite the off-roader that the Land Cruiser is known to be, a street-focused electric SUV seems like a fine fit for the Toyota portfolio. It's hard to imagine we won't see an electric Land Cruiser come to production one day, filling out that as-yet underrepresented three-row EV segment. Give us an even more rugged version, and we'll be happy — Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder  Subaru Sport Mobility Concept View 7 Photos 5. (Tie) Subaru Sport Mobility I'm still waiting for a fun, electric sport coupe, and as much as I enjoy the likes of the rear-drive BRZ, I could have some serious fun in something like this all-wheel-drive Subaru Sport Mobility year round. I could fill that hole in my heart left by my '04 WRX. — Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder  Toyota EPU concept View 4 Photos 4. Toyota EPU You know what I like? Useful, funky little vehicles. The Ford Maverick and Hyundai Santa Cruz fit that bill well, and it seems a lot of other people like them, too, based on demand. You know what I also like? EVs. You know what combines those two things? The Toyota EPU. Assuming it was priced fairly reasonably (well below $40,000 is what I'm thinking), I would seriously be looking at getting one. I also seriously hope that Toyota's seriously looking at launching this, because it seems like a seriously great package. Seriously. — News Editor Joel Stocksdale  Mitsubishi D:X Concept View 8 Photos 3. Mitsubishi D:X Concept We sure do wish Mitsubishi sold the Delica here in the United States. We've long been fans of the van, which initially was sold in rear-wheel-drive form but adopted four-wheel drive in the early 1980s, and judging by the numbers we see imported to the States, we're not the only ones.
These are the cars being discontinued for 2024 and beyond
Fri, Jun 21 2024While we get new and updated car models every year, its inevitable that we'll need to say goodbye to some nameplates as well. This time around, it feels like we have confirmation or reports of an unusually large number of vehicles being discontinued in 2024 and the coming years. We shouldn't be surprised. A large number of automakers are approaching their various target dates for electrification of their fleets. As such, some beloved internal combustion cars are going away, sometimes with appropriate fanfare like special editions. Others are slinking away quietly, killed by slowing sales and changing consumer trends. Of course, the end of production doesn't necessarily mean permanent death. Some of these models could be resurrected in later years ... and probably as an EV. With that in mind, here are the vehicles that are being discontinued in 2024 and beyond.  Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio and Stelvio Quadrifoglio Alfa Romeo ended the production of its combustion-only Quadrifoglio models in April 2024 as the Italian automaker moves toward an electrified future. This isn't the end of the Quadrifoglio entirely, though, with Larry Dominique, Alfa Romeo senior vice president and head of North America, writing, "I look forward to presenting the next chapter in the four-leaf clover’s journey."  Chevrolet Camaro GM is ending production of the Chevy Camaro after 2024, but is sending it off in style with a CollectorÂ’s Edition. WouldnÂ’t it be cool, though, if Chevy brought it back as an EV?  Chevrolet Malibu Rumors of its demise have been around for a while, but now itÂ’s official. GM will end production of the Chevy Malibu in November of 2024. The assembly line in Kansas will be retooled to build the replacement for the Chevy Bolt.  Dodge Durango The three-row Durango is slated to be replaced by the Stealth nameplate after 2024. The Durango name could make a comeback later, according to rumors, on a body-on frame SUV based on the Jeep WagoneerÂ’s platform.  Ford Edge This is the last year for the Edge in the U.S., with the final unit rolling off the assembly line in April. On sale since 2007, the Edge topped 100,000 sales in all but three full years of production.  Ford Escape Newly refreshed for the 2023 model year, FordÂ’s popular Escape compact SUV is reportedly taking its leave in 2025 in order to usher in — you guessed it — an EV in its place.

Tue, 29 Jan 2013Giving Vanilla A Good Name
"Vanilla." Taken in modern context, that's not a compliment, but it should be. Vanilla actually has exotic origins, and as spices go, only saffron is more costly. Despite the realities, calling something "vanilla" is not whistling in admiration. The Toyota Camry has been called "vanilla" countless times since its debut, but both the car and the bean have something up their sleeves.
Scoff all you want, but vanilla is the most popular ice cream flavor, and there is no mainstream sedan that outsells the Camry. Apparently, vanilla has an underlying tinge of filthy lucre. We didn't feel rich, exactly, wheeling around in the Camry Hybrid, but we came away impressed, nonetheless.
