Thinking of buying the 2007 Toyota Matrix?
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2007 Toyota Matrix for sale by us right now. The 2007 Toyota Matrix for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
What to check on the Matrix
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 96 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, electrical system and engine and engine cooling; have those parts checked.
Reading the spec sheet
It runs the 1.8L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Expect about 24 litres for every 300 km, going by its 8.1 L/100 km combined rating. A 300 km weekend costs about $37.68 in energy at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Who it is for
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Living with the Matrix
As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. The EPA lists 623 litres for luggage, roughly bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
A longer test drive
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Rent the Matrix for a week and see how it fits your life.
Year and trim
Within the 2007 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
The cost of driving it
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $125.60 at our price setting. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
