Used 2005 Toyota Matrix for Sale

I LOVE this car! My car is 11 years old, and it still runs about the same as it did when I first got it. I've never had any problems with it and, honestly, as long as you keep up with regular maintenance, this car will last you a life time. I travel a lot for work and almost always drive. This car has been all over the country and, again, with not trouble. Within the past few months I've driven from Maryland, to New Jersey, from New Jersey to Kentucky, and from Kentucky to Vermont. I have a friend that keeps asking me when I'll get a new car, and I tell him every time, "only when I have to!" This car is my baby! I've noticed it's never liked big hills, though. And the blind spots are pretty terrible. But as long as you look around you, it's fine. All in all this car is extremely reliable. Toyota is a great brand. I also love the fact that it can hold a lot, but isn't a big car. I've moved a lot in the past few years, including within the city of Baltimore. It was nice to be able to pack all my things up into the car, but still be able to find a good parallel parking spot. Love, love this baby! Choose this car if you ever get the chance!

I think the look and design of this car is good, not too flashy not too boring. The car is comfortable to ride in and drive in. The room in the car is great, I've been able to use it when I've moved and I can fit two bikes in the back if I need to. There are some fairly big blind spots with how the back window is designed, the frame of the car seems to be bigger than it needs to be, I think they could have easily improved that design. The mileage was as I expected, I do a combination of city and highway driving and a normal week for me gets about 28 mpg. Maintenance has been hassle free so far. The car drives well, I feel like the breaking and handling are good. The acceleration leaves something to be desired, but I've found in normal driving this isn't a problem. I really enjoy driving the car and I feel very safe driving it.
