| Price of the Honda Ridgeline: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr SUT 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
I got a good deal on my RTL/w Navigation 33265 was the out the door peice. |
| Price of the Honda Ridgeline: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
$30K can probably buy a lot more truck utility and power in a different brand. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
MSRP is way overpriced, and dealerships tend to haggle over prices. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
a little pricey for not having more standard options a bigger motor. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
It is an expensive vehicle when loaded, but then again, trucks can get quite expensive. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
The price in Canada was too high,and I believe I was overcharged by the dealer, but this was in part compensated by the low interest rate of 1.9% for 36 months from Honda Canada Finance. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Initial cost of vehicle plus options is higher than comparable vehicles. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Toyota Matrix
| Price of the Toyota Matrix: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 123-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
The Matrix price represents good value for the features and quality. |
| 2004 | 4dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Lease payments were very low. |
| 2004 | 4dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
In the summer of 2007, I bought this car from a Lincoln-Mercury dealership that had taken it in trade - for $8,995. The car was (and still is) in excellent condition. |
| 2003 | 4dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
It was pretty cheap to buy - $8000. |
| 2003 | 4dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Climate control & stereo system in base model. Rear wipers and defrost should be standard. Rear window becomes translucent with heavy rain or snow, which can be cleared easily by 1-3 wiper cycles. |
| 2003 | 4dr Hatch 130-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The Matrix was an affordable car. At the time, there were very few options under $20k that met all our needs. |
| Price of the Toyota Matrix: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Price was $3000 more than the Elantra after the options were added. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 132-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Price was a little higher than I wanted but i guess you pay more for quality. |
