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. |

BMW, Toyota outline new tech joint venture, new sports car
Fri, 25 Jan 2013Back in June, Toyota and BMW announced a "memorandum of understanding" outlining plans for the two companies to join forces on future products and technology development. On Thursday, they signed a more formal and binding agreement that goes further into detail about the partnership, and it all sounds pretty exciting. The two announced they will work together in four main areas:
Joint development of a fuel cell system
"Set up a feasibility study to define a joint platform concept for a mid-size sports vehicle"
Recharge Wrap-up: 10-year sentence for biodiesel fraudsters, overhead fast charging EV buses in Luxembourg
Thu, Nov 10 2016Toyota will use addressable TV advertising to target potential Prius Prime customers. By choosing to advertise in households with specific attributes, Toyota hopes to grab the attention of buyers who "see their vehicle as an extension of their consumption of advanced technology," according to Toyota Motors Sales media manager Lisa McQueen. The ad depicts a person who is skeptical of various inventions throughout history until he finds himself inside the Prius Prime. Hyundai has also used addressable TV ads for its Genesis brand. Read more at Automotive News. Two Florida men have each been sentenced to over 10 years in prison for biodiesel credit fraud. Thomas Davanzo and Robert Fedyna of Gen-X Energy Group and its subsidiary Southern Resources and Commodities were convicted of buying fuel that had already been sold with Renewable Identification Numbers, then fraudulently claiming more credits on that fuel. The scheme raked in more than $46 million, mostly in selling the fraudulent credits. Critics of the Renewable Fuel Standard point to incidents like this as a reason to oppose the program.

Public transport operator Sales-Lentz has ordered three of the Heliox systems that will charge the buses using pantograph (overhead wire) contacts. The chargers will be placed at end-of-route stops for opportunistic charging of the transport agency's four Volvo 7900 electric buses. The 450-kW, Wi-Fi-enabled OppCharge system automatically connects the charger to contact plates on the roofs of the vehicles, charging them in three to six minutes. Read more at Green Car Congress.

Toyota Camry, Honda Civic inventories mounting as US automakers make inroads
Thu, 11 Jul 2013Two of the hottest-selling cars in America aren't quite as hot as they used to be. The Toyota Camry and Honda Civic are both seeing dealer supplies increase in the face of renewed competition from the much-improved Detroit Three.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the Camry's dealer inventory is 15 days higher than its seasonal average, while the Civic is 25 days above average. Things aren't expected to get better for Toyota and Honda, as RBC Capital Markets analyst Joseph Spak marked the two Japanese offerings as "at risk for reduced output."
The Detroit Three, meanwhile, are seeing supplies dwindle as demand increases, especially for the Ford Fusion, which has seen an 18-percent increase in 2013 sales, and the Chevrolet Cruze, which was second only to the Camry in June 2013 sales.
