For those who have not yet decided: Matrix VS Vibe :) - Toyota Matrix, 1.8 L, 2003
There were some doubts about the choice of car: Matrix or Vibe?
The machines are the same in principle: engine, suspension, interior, but ... outwardly they are completely different. Vibe is more Americanized, Matrix is ​​more European, it seems to me Toyota is more modern (let the Vaibovody not be offended)
On the very first day after the purchase, I met my friend on Vibe ... and yet I made the right choice ...
Initially, I also liked Vibe, but, Restayl since 2005. Looked about 10 vibes - ALL the bits are still in the states, the runs are twisted shamelessly ... Disappointed ... I switched to nesting dolls ... The first dyed and twisted ... But the second, in the factory body, not broken, not painted, without significant problems ... I liked it very much. I took it ... While I'm high)))
A vibe would take only an orange metallic :) I agree that it looks more like a crossover. Toyota looks more like a sports hatchback than a regular station wagon :)
I have already decided that at the end of the summer I will change the car. I will change to Matrix or vibe, but I just can't figure it out. That is more attractive and more sporty, but the vibe looks more like some kind of crossover than an ordinary hatch and I like that. To be honest, my heart lies more with the vibe, but on the question "What car do you have?" somehow I would like to answer more that Toyota than Pontiac, explaining that inside there is Toyota.
definitely Matrix))) especially IksErEs)) a compressor on it and full speed ahead))
an excellent car) nuuu, except that the interior needs to make noise immediately and at a speed of 160 it makes a lot of noise
The body kit on Matryokha is factory, well, it's not her fault that Vibe is simpler and there is no zest in it! I agree that Vibe is more crossover, but among other crossovers it will be lost instantly and Matreha is not threatened, well, she has no competitors, in her originality!
I like the Matrix more in these bodies, but the 2009 Vibe will probably be nicer.
There is a second side to the coin. this is of course Brand and in this matter Pontiac is less preferable.
