What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Toyota Matrix

Price of the Toyota Matrix: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
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
YearBody/PowertrainComment
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.

What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Volkswagen Touareg

Price of the Volkswagen Touareg: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr SUV turbocharged 310hp 4.9L V10 Diesel
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range		 At $72,000, it is not an SUV for the masses. VW only sells about 400 of the diesels per year in the states. There is a reason...it is a $20,000 upcharge for the diesel.
2004 4dr SUV 220-horsepower 3.2L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range		 The price for a new Touareg puts it quite out of the reach of most SUV buyers. The higher the price the higher the payment. Though for that high price you do get an awesome warranty and vehicle once all of the glitches have been addressed under warranty.
