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. |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Dollar for dollar there is NO comparison to Kia, Hyundai etc. Much more solid/safe Car. Bears out by fact it weighs 3300+ lbs. Handles cross-winds very well. Have taken 2 trips out West. Handles wide-open spaces and mountains quite well. |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
For the standard equipment, the rock solid reliability, and the fact that Scion has NONE of the Toyota recall issues, this is really a great deal on a Toyota! |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Great Peer Pricing lease plans. Affordable and easy to manage. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Very good value for the money - comes with good standard features. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
No haggling involved, and the price is in line with its competitors like the Nissan cube and Kia Soul. On the other hand, esp. during this economy, there are no deals to be had, unless you consider a $300 Best Buy gift card to be a deal. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Pure pricing, no haggling at the dealers. Very well equipped for its price. Much more standard than anything in its class or price range. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
No haggle / fixed price. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
About $17k full loaded. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Quality for the price surpasses anything else in the price range by far. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
very affordable to own and operate. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
No haggling over the very reasonable price, especialy considering the standard features. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
This was the least expensive car with the most features standard for the money. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
very affordable price, no bargaining at the dealership - price is fixed. |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 108-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Excellent value for the money, especially with the 5-speed manual transmission. |
| 2004 | 4dr Hatch 108-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
At $15.6K out the door new, it was a very good value. |

| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
