2009 Toyota Matrix Usados en Venta

The Matrix is a very reliable car with a great body design. It requires nothing more than the normal maintenance and I have driven it for over 150,000 miles.

I love my Matrix. It is the best car I have ever had. Toyota is a wonderful company and produces cars that seem to last forever. Mine has 120,000 miles and is still going strong. Wonderful car. Bought it from Enterprise in 2007 as a used vehicle. The detraction is the paint on the car, it is metallic gold so I have had it painted and touched up several times. Now that it is older it could use another coat, but honestly the value of the car does not support it. I am going to do some clear coat touch ups and see how it looks. My car is from Florida so I need to replace all the outside window gaskets on the side windows so that it is nice and sealed, Rubber is no match for salt and sun and they are all cracked and brittle. Wanted to do it myself and it seems I have to take the doors apart. That is an expensive repair to have done. My car has an oil leak, but when I researched further found out it is very normal for my car. Nothing to actually worry about. Major repairs have been a timing belt. Another plastic part that suffers in the heat. I have had several repairs that were recalls on the vehicle. Toyota is very good about telling us and arranging the repairs. Window motors, gas pedal issue and air bag issue. All taken care of with a smile.

Overall, I am really happy with my vehicle. The interior is comfortable and spacious as well as easy to clean. I also have a lot of trunk space because the seats fold back, giving me more room than most cars. This is perfect for me because I camp fairly often and travel long distances for school, so I can fit practically everything I own in this car. The build is decent, and it only requires mechanical work a few times a year. Even when it is in bad shape, I am able to feel safe when driving. The only issue with the build is that the car is so lightweight that while driving I often feel it rocking in the wind, even when there is nothing wrong with the engine. This makes it more difficult to drive at higher speeds.
